商品描述

Two of the biggest design problems in Artificial Intelligence are how to build robots that behave in line with human values and how to stop them ever going rogue. One under-explored solution to these alignment and control problems might be to examine how these are already addressed in the design of humans.

Looking closely at the human blueprint, it contains a suite of capacities that are so clumsy they have generally been kept away from AI. It was assumed that robots with features like emotions and intuition, that made mistakes and looked for meaning and purpose, would not work as well as robots without this kind of code. But on considering why all these irrational properties are there, it seems that they emerge from the source code of soul. Because it is actually this 'junk' code that makes us human and promotes the kind of reciprocal altruism that keeps humanity alive and thriving.

Robot Souls looks at developments in AI and reviews the emergence of ideas of consciousness and the soul. It places our 'junk code' in this context and argues that it is time to foreground that code, and to use it to look again at how we are programming AI.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

人工智慧中兩個最大的設計問題是如何建立符合人類價值觀的機器人,以及如何防止它們變得失控。解決這些對齊和控制問題的一種未被充分探索的方法可能是研究人類設計中已經解決的方式。

仔細觀察人類的藍圖,它包含一系列笨拙的能力,這些能力通常被遠離人工智慧。人們認為,具有情感和直覺等特徵、會犯錯且尋求意義和目的的機器人,不如沒有這種程式碼的機器人工作得好。但是,考慮到為什麼會有這些非理性的特性,似乎它們源於靈魂的原始程式碼。因為實際上正是這些「廢棄」的程式碼使我們成為人類,並促進了保持人類生存和繁榮的互惠利他主義。

《機器人靈魂》探討了人工智慧的發展,回顧了意識和靈魂觀念的出現。它將我們的「廢棄」程式碼置於這個背景下,並主張是時候將這些程式碼放在前台,並再次使用它們來重新思考我們如何編程人工智慧。
