商品描述

This book emphasizes the rising need for people to have a basic understanding of science and technology and the emphatic role they can play in shaping the AI-driven future, especially in terms of creating sustainable societies with growing job opportunities. This book highlights why a smoothly functioning society will require, but does not yet possess in critical numbers, policymakers, senior managers, government officials, and those entering the high-end of the AI-driven job market who have a shared vision and a shared understanding of how science shapes the future of sustainable societies.
This book makes the case that the destiny of Homo sapiens is not just about evolutionary biology but increasingly about evolutionary knowledge. This book describes the web of knowledge where scientific theories appear as intellectual constructs, which lead to new knowledge that open opportunities for gainful human employment for the well-educated while eliminating jobsfor the less-educated by advancing AI in a predator-prey adversarial model (the logistic map), thus raising livelihood concerns across wide swathes of human population.
This inevitably leads to the question, "How should intellectual property rights, especially patents, be granted and protected when AI becomes advanced enough to invent without human intervention?" To answer this question, lawmakers, policymakers, managers, government officials, judiciary, enforcement agencies, etc., must have sufficient knowledge of how scientific theories impact modern society. After reading this book, the reader will be able to find answers to the following questions:
- How do scientific theories impact modern society?- What is the intellectual base on which science and technology policies are founded?- Why do individuals across a population need to possess scientific knowledge?- What are the rising concerns of peoplein finding sustainable employment in an AI-driven world?- What is the compelling need to understand the role of patentable inventions in a world where intellectual property is wealth?

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書強調人們對科學和技術基本理解的日益需求，以及他們在塑造以人工智慧驅動的未來中所能扮演的重要角色，特別是在創造可持續社會和增長就業機會方面。本書突顯出，運作順暢的社會將需要，但目前尚未擁有足夠數量的政策制定者、高級管理人員、政府官員，以及那些進入以人工智慧驅動的高端就業市場的人，他們必須擁有共同的願景和對科學如何塑造可持續社會未來的共同理解。

本書主張，人類的命運不僅僅關乎進化生物學，越來越多地關乎進化知識。本書描述了知識的網絡，其中科學理論作為智力構造出現，這些理論導致新知識的產生，為受過良好教育的人類提供有利的就業機會，同時通過在捕食者-獵物對抗模型（邏輯圖）中推進人工智慧，消除受教育程度較低者的工作，從而引發廣泛人群的生計擔憂。

這不可避免地引發了這個問題：當人工智慧足夠先進到可以在沒有人工干預的情況下發明時，知識產權，特別是專利，應如何授予和保護？為了回答這個問題，立法者、政策制定者、管理人員、政府官員、司法機構、執法機構等必須對科學理論如何影響現代社會有足夠的了解。閱讀本書後，讀者將能夠找到以下問題的答案：
- 科學理論如何影響現代社會？
- 科學和技術政策所依據的智力基礎是什麼？
- 為什麼整個人群中的個體需要擁有科學知識？
- 在以人工智慧驅動的世界中，人們在尋找可持續就業方面的擔憂是什麼？
- 在知識產權即財富的世界中，理解可專利發明的角色有何迫切需求？
