TY - GEN T1 - The singularity : could artificial intelligence really out-think us (and would we want it to?) A1 - Chalmers, David John, 1966- A2 - Awret, Uziel LA - English PP - Exeter PB - Imprint Academic YR - 2016 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_ocn979559969 AB - This volume represents the combination of two special issues of the Journal of Consciousness Studies on the topic of the technological singularity. Could artificial intelligence really out-think us, and what would be the likely repercussions if it could? Leading authors contribute to the debate, which takes the form of a target chapter by philosopher David Chalmers, plus commentaries from the likes of Daniel Dennett, Nick Bostrom, Ray Kurzweil, Ben Goertzel, Frank Tipler, among many others. Chalmers then responds to the commentators to round off the discussion. NO - "The commentaries in this volume were originally published as two special issues of the Journal of consciousness studies, vols. 19 (1-2) and 19 (7-8). The original target article was published JCS, vol. 17 (9-10)"--Title page verso CN - Q335 .S56 2016 SN - 9781845409166 SN - 1845409167 SN - 9781845409074 SN - 1845409140 SN - 9781845409142 SN - 1845409078 KW - Artificial intelligence : Forecasting.
