Samenvatting:
How AI is transforming the lives of billions of animals—and what we can do about it.
Like it or not, AI is rapidly reshaping human life. But what does it mean for other species? In AI, Animals, and Us, researcher Max Taylor explores the surprising world of whale translators, robot dogs, AI-powered mega-farms, and the even stranger territory that lies ahead.
After reading, you’ll know how AI could:
- Reveal what animals are really communicating
- Change how you care for your pets
- Open up new ways to help wild animals
- Transform the lives of farmed animals – for better or worse
Along the way, this book tackles some of the biggest questions around AI:
- What’s driving breakneck AI progress, and will it continue?
- Could AI itself ever become conscious?
- How can we shape AI’s values before they get set in stone?
- How do we prepare ourselves—and our fellow species—for such an unpredictable future?
Most AI discussions stop at humans. AI, Animals, and Us explores AI’s sweeping consequences for every species on the planet, not just our own—and how we can shape them while there’s still time. This book is for readers drawn to the big-picture thinking of Sapiens, the wonder of My Octopus Teacher, or the sharp futuristic vision of Black Mirror.
