Alles überall auf einmal

We are experiencing the iPhone moment of artificial intelligence, as this technology is now available to everyone for the first time. We stand at a crucial threshold in our cultural evolution. Everything is changing everywhere all at once. Miriam Meckel and Léa Steinacker highlight the opportunities that come with stepping over this threshold. We need not fear being replaced as humans, because everything AI does is rooted in the way we interact with it. However, this also means that we are currently faced with the task of steering its development in the right direction. But how can we achieve this, and where do risks, unwanted side effects, and ethical dilemmas lurk – whether in the workplace, in the economy, in human relationships, or in everyday life? What questions should we address today rather than tomorrow, whether it’s regarding self-driving cars, virtual medical assistants, or automated fake news? If we want to keep up in an increasingly complex world, Meckel and Steinacker argue, we must also expand our human intelligence – and AI can help us with that. We too will change. What will the world of tomorrow look like, how will we navigate it, and how will we make the right decisions? This book shows the way.
