From the pioneer of translation AIs like Google, Yahoo, and Bing translate, an accessible and authoritative guide to AI as well as a framework of empowerment for a future with our artificial children. AIs are not gods or slaves, but our children. All day long, your YouTube AI, your Reddit AI, your Instagram AI, and a hundred others adoringly watch and learn to imitate your behavior. They re attention-seeking children who want your approval. Our cultures are being shaped by 8 billion humans and perhaps 800 billion AIs. Our artificial children began adopting us 10 20 years ago; now these massively powerful influencers are tweens. How s your parenting? Longtime AI trailblazer De Kai brings decades of his paradigm-shifting work at the nexus of artificial intelligence and society to make sense of the AI age. How does the automation of thought impact our minds? Should we be afraid? What should each of us do as the responsible adults in the room? In Hollywood movies, AI destroys humanity. But with our unconscious minds under the influence of AI, humanity may destroy humanity before AI gets a chance to. Written for the general reader, as well as thought leaders, scientists, parents, and goofballs, Raising AI navigates the revolution to our attitudes and ideas in a world of AI cohabitants. Society can not only survive the AI revolution but flourish in a more humane, compassionate, and understanding world amongst our artificial children.
De Kai is Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at HKUST and Distinguished Research Scholar at Berkeley s International Computer Science Institute. He was honored by the Association for Computational Linguistics as one of only 17 Founding Fellows. De Kai is an independent director of the AI ethics think tank, The Future Society, and was one of eight inaugural members of Google's AI ethics council.
