THE UNTOLD TECH STORY OF OUR TIME

What does it mean to be smart? To be human? What do we really want from life and the intelligence we have, or might create?

With deep and exclusive reporting, across hundreds of interviews, New York Times Silicon Valley journalist Cade Metz brings you into the rooms where these questions are being answered. Where an extraordinarily powerful new artificial intelligence has been built into our biggest companies, our social discourse, and our daily lives, with few of us even noticing.

Long dismissed as a technology of the distant future, artificial intelligence was a project consigned to the fringes of the scientific community. Then two researchers changed everything. One was a sixty-four-year-old computer science professor who didn’t drive and didn’t fly because he could no longer sit down—but still made his way across North America for the moment that would define a new age of technology. The other was a thirty-six-year-old neuroscientist and chess prodigy who laid claim to being the greatest game player of all time before vowing to build a machine that could do anything the human brain could do.

They took two very different paths to that lofty goal, and they disagreed on how quickly it would arrive. But both were soon drawn into the heart of the tech industry. Their ideas drove a new kind of arms race, spanning Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and OpenAI, a new lab founded by Silicon Valley kingpin Elon Musk. But some believed that China would beat them all to the finish line.

Genius Makers dramatically presents the fierce conflict between national interests, shareholder value, the pursuit of scientific knowledge, and the very human concerns about privacy, security, bias, and prejudice. Like a great Victorian novel, this world of eccentric, brilliant, often unimaginably yet suddenly wealthy characters draws you into the most profound moral questions we can ask. And like a great mystery, it presents the story and facts that lead to a core, vital question:

How far will we let it go?

有关AI的演进,这是一部很好的汇总。集中不同的神经网络模型的发展和对标关键性事件都有很好的串联。同样是技术传记,作者笔力和walter Issacson相比尽管略微逊色,仍然是一部好书。

终于读完了!能在这个激荡的时代里随波逐流也是好的。—————————(在读感受: 在时代即将闭合的缝隙处,几个天才信仰者用力撕开了一道深长的口子。就像《杀死比尔》里被活埋的新娘,赤手穿洞棺材板。他们不仅带进来空气和光明,更是直接创造了一个新世界的基础。他们在这个新世界里挥舞魔杖,创造出一株又一株奇观的树苗。在几株树苗以肉眼可见的速度长成森林的过程中,我这样的青山小蚂蚁,也因此有了一处可以喝山泉、啃坚果的地方。

非常精彩地描述了深度学习得发展史。这是作者过去八年受雇于 Wired 和 NYT 而采访的精华:)
