讲座内容:
本讲座以科幻小说《像我这样的机器》为例,试图从中审视人工智能之父阿兰·图灵与英国当代知名小说家伊恩·麦克尤恩之间关于人造人的隔空对话。讲座以机器人亚当介入人类生活后所引发的冲突为例,尤其聚焦于主人公米兰达的谎言及其引发人类与机器人的不同反应这一细节,重点讨论三个问题:(1)人工智能时代,机器人之于人类主体身份的冲击;(2)在谎言与真相之间,机器人与人类在伦理诉求上的根本差异;(3)机器人的毁灭与人类的责任。
Taking the latest science fiction Machines Like Me as its point of departure, this talk intends to examine Ian McEwan’s rejoinder to Alan Turing across time. By focusing on the machine Adam’s engagements with human life, the protagonist Miranda’s lies and respective responses from the humans and the machine in particular, this talk tries to tackle with three general issues: (1)the challenges of the machines to the human subjectivity in the AI age; (2)the ethical pursuit of the humans and machines with regard to lies and truth; (3)The humans’ responsibility for the machine.
