By bringing these perspectives together in one book, readers gain a sense of the complex scientific, social, and ideological contexts within which AI and robotics research is unfolding, as well as the illusory suppositions and distorted claims being mobilized by the industry in the name of bettering humanity?s future. Discussions about AI and robotics have been shaped by computer science and engineering, steered by corporate and military interests, forged by transhumanist philosophy and libertarian politics, animated by fiction, and hyped by the media. From fiction passing as science to the illusion of AI autonomy to the business of ethics to the automation of war, this collection recognizes the inevitable entanglement of humanity and technology, while exposing the problematic assumptions and myths driving the field in order to better assess its risks and potential. 410 0$aSocial and Cultural Studies of Robots and AI,$x2523-8531 606 $aScience$xSocial aspects 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aAutomatic control 606 $aRobotics 606 $aAutomation 606 $aScience and Technology Studies 606 $aArtificial Intelligence 606 $aControl, Robotics, Automation 615 0$aScience$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 0$aAutomatic control. 615 0$aRobotics. 615 0$aAutomation. 615 14$aScience and Technology Studies. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 615 24$aControl, Robotics, Automation. 676 $a006.3 676 $a006.3 702 $aHeffernan$b Teresa$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910357832703321 996 $aCyborg Futures$92446438 997 $aUNINA
