Ep182 - John Lennox | 2084: Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Humanity

from Talks at Google · host Talks at Google

This week, mathematician and emeritus Oxford University Professor John Lennox discusses his book, "2084: Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Humanity" You don't have to be a computer scientist to get involved in the discussion about where artificial intelligence and technology are going. What will the year 2084 hold for you--for your friends, for your family, and for our society? Are we doomed to the grim dystopia imagined in George Orwell's 1984? In "2084", scientist and philosopher John Lennox introduces a kaleidoscope of ideas: the key developments in technological enhancement, bioengineering, and in particular, artificial intelligence. He discusses the current capacity of AI, its advantages and disadvantages, the facts and the fiction, as well as potential future implications. Get the book here: https://goo.gle/3bEon1U.
