Matteo Pasquinelli on Artificial Intelligence, Automation, Work, and Algorithms
In this video Matteo Pasquinelli expands on the key ideas in his new book, The Eye of the Master: A Social History of Artificial Intelligence.
What is AI? A dominant view describes it as the quest "to solve intelligence"—a solution supposedly to be found in the secret logic of the mind, such as in its complex neural networks. Matteo Pasquinelli argues, to the contrary, that the inner code of AI is shaped not by the imitation of biological intelligence, but the intelligence of labour and social relations. Here he is interviewed by Richard Hames, audio producer at Novara Media.
Matteo Pasquinelli's new book, The Eye of the Master: A Social History of Artificial Intelligence, is out now.
