Products of modern artificial intelligence (AI) have mostly been
formed by the views, opinions and goals of the "insiders," i.e.
people usually with engineering background who are driven by the
force that can be metaphorically described as the pursuit of the
craft of Hephaestus. However, since the present-day technology
allows for tighter and tighter mergence of the "natural" everyday
human life with machines of immense complexity, the responsible
reaction of the scientific community should be based on cautious
reflection of what really lies beyond AI, i.e. on the frontiers
where the tumultuous ever-growing and ever-changing cloud of AI
touches the rest of the world.
The chapters of this boo are based on the selected subset of the
presentations that were delivered by their respective authors at
the conference "Beyond AI: Interdisciplinary Aspects of Artificial
Intelligence" held in Pilsen in December 2011.
From its very definition, the reflection of the phenomena that
lie beyond AI must be inherently interdisciplinary. And so is this
book: all the authors took part in a mutual transdisciplinary
dialogue after explaining their views on AI not only to a narrow
selection of their usual close peers with the same specialisation,
but to a much broader audience of various experts from AI
engineering, natural sciences, humanities and philosophy. The
chapters of this book thus reflect results of such a dialogue.
