I've been looking for some new reads! Thanks, Thu!

[jeffersondias]

The last book is the masterpiece. Add all to my wishlist! I love your videos! Please, more videos like this! Thanks ❤

[ChristopheStrobbe]

I hadn't heard of "Power and Progress" and "The Alignment Problem", so thanks for this video.
Some other books that look worth reading and that I have on my to-read list are the following:
* Stephen Wolfram: What Is ChatGPT Doing ... and Why Does It Work? (2023). This is a narrow topic (it's also a short book), but since ChatGPT has been making such waves ...
* J. Storrs Hall: AI: Creating the Conscience of the Machine (2007). People seem to have forgotten this book because it looks old in AI terms.
* Dan McQuillan: Resisting AI: An Anti-fascist Approach to Artificial Intelligence (2022). A book that goes against the current hype. Don't be put off by the (anti-)f-word in the title.
* Kate Crawford: Atlas of AI: Power, Politics, and the Planetary Costs of Artificial Intelligence (2022). For those who want to know about the environmental cost of AI. Strictly speaking, that should be all of us.

[zifeimo]

Yep, I’m searching these types of books, thanks

Looks like a great list for delving into the ethical and philosophical side of AI. Amazing to see the last book is still going!

*The Two Faces of Tomorrow* (1979) by James P Hogan

He worked for DEC way back when.

[georgerivello]

I’ve been trying to figure out what to read, I have an engineering and programming background and I wanted to avoid “what if “ type philosophy books. I appreciate your thoughts here 😊

[Timeus]

I couldn't help but wonder, where is Ray Kurzweil? Thanx for the reads

[minshallsFi]

Good selection here I haven't heard of before. Any chance you have a list of fiction featuring AI?

[anadu]

Thanks for the reviews, I will definitively check some out. This whole debate about AI ethics gives me more feeling of the transhumanism movement then computer science.

[masteronepiece]

How to get born in a rich family, so we can buy books and have time to read them.

[gordonsteen]

Humans are biased and irrational, (war), Also, the key to life is to be flexible and adaptable. Good luck AI.

[jonmichaelgalindo]

I thought you had found AI-written books worth reading. I was like, "no way..." But that's not what you meant.

[DesignDesigns]

Funny, most of those books are filled with negativity of Ah, we humans!! 🤣🤣
