商品描述

An interdisciplinary, cross-cultural collection that decenters familiar narratives to provide a fresh perspective on what artificial intelligence is today, and what it might become.

Historians, media theorists, science-fiction writers, philosophers, and artists from China and elsewhere reexamine the nation's intense engagement with AI, moving beyond the clichés that still dominate contemporary debate.

Today, visions of the contested future of AI veer between common planetary goals and a new Cold War, as culturally-specific models of intelligence, speculative traditions, and thought experiments come up against the emergence of novel forms of cognition that cannot be reduced to any historical cultural tradition.

This uniquely positioned volume provides expert insight into this tension, using China as a touchstone for rethinking artificiality and intelligence as sites of difference in a way that is already present in the difficulty of precisely translating the Chinese term 人工智能. Tracking the history of Chinese AI from the pre-Cultural Revolution to the post-Deng Xiaoping eras right up to contemporary debates surrounding facial recognition, the writers in this collection draw on a mixture of speculative thought experiments and cutting-edge use cases to offer singular views on topics including AI and Chinese philosophy, AI ethics and policymaking, the development of computational models in early Chinese cybernetics, and the aesthetics of Sinofuturism.

Spanning borders between different worlds, histories, futures, and foundational models, Machine Decision is Not Final is not only a timely reappraisal of the stakes of AI development, but a tool for constructing more global imaginaries for the future of AI.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

一部跨學科、跨文化的合集，重新審視熟悉的敘事，提供對當今人工智慧的全新視角，以及它可能成為的樣貌。

來自中國及其他地區的歷史學家、媒體理論家、科幻作家、哲學家和藝術家重新檢視該國與人工智慧的密切關聯，超越當前辯論中仍佔主導地位的陳詞濫調。

如今，對人工智慧爭議未來的願景在共同的全球目標與新冷戰之間搖擺，文化特定的智慧模型、推測傳統和思想實驗面對著新型認知形式的出現，而這些形式無法簡化為任何歷史文化傳統。

這本獨特的著作提供了對這種緊張關係的專業見解，以中國為基準，重新思考人工性和智慧作為差異的場域，這一點在精確翻譯中文術語「人工智慧」的困難中已經顯現出來。追溯中國人工智慧的歷史，從文化大革命前到鄧小平後的時代，直至當前圍繞面部識別的辯論，這本合集中的作者運用推測性思想實驗和前沿應用案例，對包括人工智慧與中國哲學、人工智慧倫理與政策制定、早期中國控制論中的計算模型發展，以及中華未來主義的美學等主題提供獨特的觀點。

跨越不同世界、歷史、未來和基礎模型的界限，機器決策並非最終決定不僅是對人工智慧發展風險的及時重新評估，也是構建更全球化的人工智慧未來想像的工具。
