Artificial intelligence, or AI, is a cross-disciplinary approach to understanding, modeling, and creating intelligence of various forms. It is a critical branch of cognitive science, and its influence is increasingly being felt in other areas, including the humanities. AI applications are transforming the way we interact with each other and with our environment, and work in artificially modeling intelligence is offering new insights into the human mind and revealing new forms mentality can take. This volume of original essays presents the state of the art in AI, surveying the foundations of the discipline, major theories of mental architecture, the principal areas of research, and extensions of AI such as artificial life. With a focus on theory rather than technical and applied issues, the volume will be valuable not only to people working in AI, but also to those in other disciplines wanting an authoritative and up-to-date introduction to the field.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent primer.

Without descending into to much technical ink, this is an excellent tome on the subject of A.I. It is well laid out in respect to the order of knowledge you require to progress through the book. I'm not going to get into the subject but I wanted to know more so that perhaps I could play.

I can see why this is considered the best of its kind. It seems to cover the field very well for someone just entering it (or in my own case, curious about developments since leaving the field, now about 25 years ago). It would definitely belong on a lot of bookshelves. Well done!

4.0 out of 5 stars A group of timely articles on the subject
Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2015
Verified Purchase
This a broad field these days and relatively timely so it's a good review. Of all fields it is not making just progress, it's accelerating. The two branches are tools like machine learning which is used to predict your next purchase and the other is developing machines with an intelligence comparable to a human which is inevitable. It's not an introduction but a group of useful readings on the topic.

Nothing interesting for engineers or scientists - even those of them interested in philosophical aspects of the AI. It is written in such a way that most people who like books of Krauss, Hawkins, Feynmann or Yudkowsky - will find this one so boring then they'll give up after 10-20%. it is full of dates - more then a good historical book; it is full of words and not so much of useful or at least any interesting info, ideas or thoughts.

3.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating Book
Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2015
Verified Purchase
This is a frustrating book. It has a copyright of 2014 but many of the articles (it is basically a collection of articles) seem hopelessly out of date. (I'm looking at you, GOFAI chapter, in particular.) There is a lot of philosophical noodling, some interesting, but mostly incomplete and way too confident. For example: There is much claiming that computer systems can't be intentional, but no specification of how a system might prove that, and no consideration that we would have a lot of trouble proving the intentionality of our human peers. Basically this is a lot of philosophers arguing about science in the same way that Aristotle did in his Physics. Aristotle got little right in the light of modern science, and I suspect the partisans of each school will eventually be shown to be poor predictors of the future scientific results. They seem to have missed out on the last 10 years in advances in machine translation, context sensitive understanding of language, and other technologies that have grown incredibly very recently. For my part, I am an engineer who works in the field. Some of the philosophy inspires ideas to implement. Most just make me shake my head at how easily people believe the weak ideas that they have based their careers around. Most should probably head back to grad school for a knowledge update,

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 9, 2015

Very general and easy introduction to AI, which takes into account stimulating philosophical aspects of cognitive sciences. It is a collection of reports, of varied quality, some of them really well written, each with an independent, not large but well chosen, bibliography. The organization of the topics is very well structured.
