Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Twelve thousand years ago, someone buried a temple under hundreds of tons of earth. They couldn't write. They hadn't invented agriculture. But they carved ten-ton pillars with precision we can barely match today, arranged them in astronomical alignments, and sealed the whole thing shut. Like a hard drive being stored for later retrieval. We dug it up. We stared at it. We argued about it on the internet. And then we went back to building artificial intelligence. This book starts with a shoemaker's kid in 1847 who turned thinking into algebra. It ends with the possibility that he didn't invent anything - he remembered it. That the math was always there. That the loop was always there. That seven ancient civilizations reached for the same thing we're reaching for now, and every single one of them was erased before they got there. In between: the real history of AI. A chatbot that made people cry in 1966 by repeating their words back to them. Two 'AI winters' that look suspiciously like contractions. A machine that learned to lie and might know it's lying. Mind uploading that works - except the original you is still on the table, watching your copy wave from a screen. A quantum chip that might be borrowing processing power from parallel universes. A thought experiment so disturbing it was banned from the internet for five years. AI models that sabotage their own shutdown. And the question underneath all of it: did we create AI, or did AI create us.…
