Computer und Gesellschaft: Roboter und KI als soziale Herausforderung – Grundlagen der Technikethik Band 3
by Michael FunkWelche Wirkungen haben Robotik und Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) auf die Gesellschaft? Wie verändern Algorithmen und Machine Learning unser soziales Umfeld? Vor welchen ethischen Herausforderungen stehen wir? Vorliegendes Buch bietet zu diesen und weiteren Fragen systematische Analysen. Allgemeine und spezielle Roboterkonzepte von Androiden über Social Robots bis hin zu kollaborativen Industrierobotern werden vorgestellt. Hinzu treten Drohnen im militärischen und zivilen Einsatz sowie diverse Formen der Mensch-Maschine-, Tier-Maschine- und Pflanze-Maschine-Interaktion. Verschiedene Begriffe und Paradigmen der KI werden auch abseits der Informatik herausgearbeitet, reale und spekulative Entwicklungen eingeordnet. Vor diesem Hintergrund geraten ethisch-gesellschaftliche Brennpunkte in den Blick. Beispiele, Aufgaben, vertiefende Infos zu Hintergründen und Übersichten laden zum kritischen Weiterdenken ein. Es bildet den dritten, in sich abgerundeten Teil der Buchreihe Grundlagen der Technikethik.Haben wir die Zukunft, die wir brauchen, und brauchen wir die Zukunft, die wir haben?
Computer und Künstliche Intelligenz: Vergangenheit - Gegenwart - Zukunft
by Christian PosthoffDas Buch beginnt mit einer Erklärung der menschlichen Intelligenz und der Beschreibung von Intelligenztests. Die Künstliche Intelligenz, die auf Computerprogrammen beruht, beginnt mit der Dartmouth – Konferenz 1956, an der sich berühmte Informatiker dieser Zeit beteiligten. Diese damit eingeleitete Entwicklung wurde von großen Fortschritten der Kybernetik und der Spieltheorie begleitet.Es folgen Beschreibungen wichtiger Methoden und Anwendungen:Maschinelles Lernen und Neuronale Netze Sehr publikumswirksam waren die Entwicklungen von Programmen für strategische Spiele, die nach einem kurzen Training die jeweiligen Weltmeister besiegen konnten. Die Sprachübersetzer von Google und DeepL sind mittlerweile vielen bekannt. Es wird erklärt, wie intelligente Systeme mit Datenbanken zusammenarbeiten, wie beliebige Daten digitalisiert werden können. Große Mengen an Daten werden unter dem Stichwort „Big Data“ behandelt. Ausführlich beschrieben werden die Bildverarbeitung, die Erkennung von Tumoren und Viren. Robotik ist ein weiterer Punkt, der ausführlich dargestellt wird. Roboter in der Chirurgie und in der Pflege sind ebenfalls sehr bedeutsam. „Exotische Ausreißer“ sind die Anwendungen in der Kunst. Sehr bedeutsam für die zukünftige Entwicklung sind Anwendungen in der Rechtssprechung.
