商品描述

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming multiple aspects of human life, raising fundamental questions: Is AI truly intelligent? Can it surpass human capabilities? What are its risks and opportunities? In this book, I aim to clarify what AI really is, debunking myths while offering a rigorous, balanced perspective on its impact. Rather than chasing the latest AI trends, I will focus on the core principles that define it, tracing its evolution from early pioneers like Alan Turing to today's advanced systems. AI remains in the realm of narrow intelligence, excelling at specific tasks but far from replicating human cognition. Yet, its ability to process vast data, predict behaviors, and generate creative content is reshaping industries, from healthcare to finance. At the heart of AI's progress is machine learning, particularly neural networks, which rely more on data-driven training than traditional scientific theory. However, this innovation comes with challenges: environmental costs, job market disruptions, ethical dilemmas, and the black box problem--AI's decision-making opacity, which raises concerns about trust and accountability. AI also plays a growing role in global power dynamics, influencing governance, security, and even democracy. Nations leading AI development gain strategic advantages, but without careful regulation, AI could fuel inequality, surveillance, and manipulation. Despite the fears AI evokes, it is neither an existential threat nor a magical solution. My goal is not to celebrate or demonize it but to provide a critical framework for understanding this technological revolution. By fostering awareness, we can shape AI's integration into society in a way that aligns with human values and scientific progress.

人工智慧（AI）正在改變人類生活的多個面向，並引發根本性的問題：AI真的智能嗎？它能超越人類的能力嗎？它的風險和機會是什麼？在這本書中，我旨在澄清AI究竟是什麼，揭穿迷思，同時提供對其影響的嚴謹且平衡的觀點。我不會追逐最新的AI趨勢，而是專注於定義AI的核心原則，追溯其從早期先驅如艾倫·圖靈（Alan Turing）到今天的先進系統的演變。AI仍然處於狹義智能的範疇，擅長特定任務，但距離複製人類認知還有很長的路要走。然而，它處理大量數據、預測行為和生成創意內容的能力正在重塑各行各業，從醫療保健到金融。AI進步的核心是機器學習，特別是神經網絡，這些技術更依賴於數據驅動的訓練，而非傳統的科學理論。然而，這一創新也帶來了挑戰：環境成本、就業市場的擾動、倫理困境以及黑箱問題——AI決策的不透明性，這引發了對信任和問責的擔憂。AI在全球權力動態中也扮演著日益重要的角色，影響治理、安全甚至民主。領先AI發展的國家獲得了戰略優勢，但如果不加以謹慎的監管，AI可能會助長不平等、監控和操控。儘管AI引發了恐懼，但它既不是生存威脅，也不是魔法解決方案。我的目標不是慶祝或妖魔化它，而是提供一個理解這場技術革命的批判性框架。通過提高意識，我們可以塑造AI融入社會的方式，使其與人類價值觀和科學進步相一致。
