Bøger af Max Tegmark

Max Tegmark leads us on an astonishing journey through past, present, and future, and through the physics, astronomy, and mathematics that are the foundation of his work, most particularly his hypothesis that our physical reality is a mathematical structure and his theory of the ultimate multiverse. In a dazzling combination of both popular and groundbreaking science, he not only helps us grasp his often mind-boggling theories, but he also shares with us some of the often surprising triumphs and disappointments that have shaped his life as a scientist. Fascinating from first to last - here is a book for the full science-reading spectrum.Max Tegmark is author or co-author of more than 200 technical papers, twelve of which have been cited more than 500 times. He has featured in dozens of science documentaries, and his work with the SDSS collaboration on galaxy clustering shared the first prize in Science magazine's "e;Breakthrough of the Year: 2003"e;. He holds a Ph.D from the University of California, Berkeley, and is a physics professor at MIT.

¿Cómo afectará la inteligencia artificial al crimen, a la guerra, a la justicia, al trabajo, a la sociedad y al sentido de nuestras vidas?Bienvenidos a la conversación más importante de nuestro tiempo.¿Cómo afectará la inteligencia artificial al crimen, a la guerra, a la justicia, al trabajo, a la sociedad y al sentido de nuestras vidas? ¿Es posible que las máquinas nos dejen fuera de juego, remplazando a los humanos en el mercado laboral e incluso en otros ámbitos? ¿La inteligencia artificial proveerá mejoras sin precedente a nuestras vidas o nos dará más poder del que podemos manejar?Muchas de las cuestiones más fundamentales de la actualidad están íntimamente relacionadas con el aumento de la inteligencia artificial.Max Tegmark no se asusta ante la gama completa de puntos de vista o ante los temas más controvertidos, desde la superinteligencia hasta el significado, la conciencia y los límites físicos últimos de la vida en el cosmos. En Vida 3.0, clarifica los conceptos clave necesarios para hablar de inteligencia artificial al tiempo que ayuda a entender la importancia de las cuestiones clave, aquellas que la humanidad tendrá que abordar en las próximas décadas.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONNew York Times Best SellerHow will Artificial Intelligence affect crime, war, justice, jobs, society and our very sense of being human? The rise of AI has the potential to transform our future more than any other technology-and there's nobody better qualified or situated to explore that future than Max Tegmark, an MIT professor who's helped mainstream research on how to keep AI beneficial.How can we grow our prosperity through automation without leaving people lacking income or purpose? What career advice should we give today's kids? How can we make future AI systems more robust, so that they do what we want without crashing, malfunctioning or getting hacked? Should we fear an arms race in lethal autonomous weapons? Will machines eventually outsmart us at all tasks, replacing humans on the job market and perhaps altogether? Will AI help life flourish like never before or give us more power than we can handle?What sort of future do you want? This book empowers you to join what may be the most important conversation of our time. It doesn't shy away from the full range of viewpoints or from the most controversial issues-from superintelligence to meaning, consciousness and the ultimate physical limits on life in the cosmos.
