Artificial Intelligence

This book examines the problematics and prospects for digitally augmented humanity. In doing so, it maps the terrain for a future science of augmented agency. It will have cross-disciplinary appeal to students and scholars of applied psychology, cognitive and behavioral science, organizational psychology and management, business, finance, and digital cultures and humanities.

On what basis can we challenge Artificial Intelligence (AI) - its infusion, investment,  and implementation across the globe? This book answers this question by  drawing on a range of critical approaches from the social sciences and humanities,  including posthumanism, ethics and human values, surveillance studies, Black  feminism, and other strategies for social and political resistance. The authors  analyse timely topics, including bias and language processing, responsibility  and machine learning, COVID-19 and AI in health technologies, bio-AI and  nanotechnology, digital ethics, AI and the gig economy, representations of AI in  literature and culture, and many more.

Julian Togelius explores the connections between games and intelligence to offer a new vision of future games and game design. Video games already depend on AI. We use games to test AI algorithms, challenge our thinking, and better understand both natural and artificial intelligence. In the future, Togelius argues, game designers will be able to create smarter games that make us smarter in turn, applying advanced AI to help design games. In this book, he tells us how.
