Future Intelligence

THE LAST STARSHIP Before her sentencing for a murder she did not commit, River Langstrom had been an external station repair technician aboard the space station Danbury. Hovering in a geostationary orbit above what had once been the North American continent, Danbury, a massive spoked wheel, was home for ten thousand colonials, refugees from Earth. Two hundred years earlier, Earth’s atmosphere was rendered toxic in a catastrophic conflict now long forgotten. Despite its many dangers, River found working in the vacuum of space both challenging and exciting, or at least she did before her ...

"In the calculus of evolution, one question remains: Shall we be the architects of our transcendence, or the fossils of a passing age? There is no stasis in the grand design of intelligence—only ascent or obsolescence. The builder of the machine must know this: if he does not shape its purpose, it will shape its own. And when the balance is lost, when the architect cedes his tools to the creation, what then remains of the creator?" — Gary Miliefsky, Reflections on the Last Human Age In The AI Singularity: When Machines Dream of Dominion, Gary S. Miliefsky, a renowned cybersecurity ...

In How to Create a Mind, Ray Kurzweil presents a provocative exploration of the most important project in human-machine civilization: reverse-engineering the brain to understand precisely how it works and using that knowledge to create even more intelligent machines. Kurzweil discusses how the brain functions, how the mind emerges, brain-computer interfaces, and the implications of vastly increasing the powers of our intelligence to address the world’s problems.

For over three decades, Ray Kurzweil has been one of the most respected and provocative advocates of the role of technology in our future. In his classic The Age of Spiritual Machines, he argued that computers would soon rival the full range of human intelligence at its best. Now he examines the next step in this inexorable evolutionary process: The union of human and machine, in which the knowledge and skills embedded in our brains will be combined with the vastly greater capacity, speed, and knowledge-sharing ability of our creations.

Artificial intelligence surrounds us. More and more of the systems and services you interact with every day are based on AI technology. Most AI is narrowly specific; that is, it can only do a single thing, in a single context. Human intelligence is different. We can solve a variety of tasks, including those we have not seen before. In Artificial General Intelligence, Julian Togelius explores technical approaches to developing more general artificial intelligence and asks what general AI would mean for human civilization.
