Recenzja Jobst Landgrebe, Barry Smith, Why Machines Will Never Rule the World: Artificial Intelligence without Fear, Routledge, New York – London 2022, ss. 341

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) is a topic that occupies the minds of scientists from various disciplines, politicians, entrepreneurs, and ordinary people. Attitudes toward this issue range from uncritical enthusiasm to authentic fear of a rebellion by intelligent robots that might consider us humans an inferior species, subjugating us and ultimately eliminating us. The book by Jobst Landgrebe, a scientist and entrepreneur with philosophical training, and Barry Smith, a distinguished philosopher, is a response to these concerns: strong (general) artificial intelligence is, they argue, mathematically – not merely technically or physically – impossible.
