Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere, yet it causes damage to
society in ways that can't be fixed. Instead of helping to address
our current crises, AI causes divisions that limit people's life
chances, and even suggests fascistic solutions to social problems.
This book provides an analysis of AI's deep learning technology and
its political effects and traces the ways that it resonates with
contemporary political and social currents, from global austerity
to the rise of the far right. Dan McQuillan calls for us to resist
AI as we know it and restructure it by prioritising the common good
over algorithmic optimisation. He sets out an anti-fascist approach
to AI that replaces exclusions with caring, proposes people's
councils as a way to restructure AI through mutual aid and outlines
new mechanisms that would adapt to changing times by supporting
collective freedom. Academically rigorous, yet accessible to a
socially engaged readership, this unique book will be of interest
to all who wish to challenge the social logic of AI by reasserting
the importance of the common good.
