This book is an edited collection of chapters based on the papers
presented at the conference “Beyond AI: Artificial Dreams” held
in Pilsen in November 2012. The aim of the conference was to
question deep-rooted ideas of artificial intelligence and cast
critical reflection on methods standing at its foundations.
Artificial Dreams epitomize our controversial quest for
non-biological intelligence and therefore the contributors of this
book tried to fully exploit such a controversy in their respective
chapters, which resulted in an interdisciplinary dialogue between
experts from engineering, natural sciences and humanities. While
pursuing the Artificial Dreams, it has become clear that it is
still more and more difficult to draw a clear divide between human
and machine. And therefore this book tries to portrait such an
image of what lies beyond artificial intelligence: we can see the
disappearing human-machine divide, a very important phenomenon of
nowadays technological society, the phenomenon which is often
uncritically praised, or hypocritically condemned. And so this
phenomenon found its place in the subtitle of the whole volume as
well as in the title of the chapter of Kevin Warwick, one of the
keynote speakers at “Beyond AI: Artificial Dreams”.
