This can usher in the greatest transformation in human history, an age of re-integration. Our very existence is dependent upon our context within the Earth System, and so, surely, artificial intelligence must also be grounded within this context, embracing emergence, interconnectedness and real-time feedback. We discover many positive outcomes across the societal, economic and environmental arenas and discuss how this transformation can be delivered.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey Features: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eIdentifies a key weakness in current AI thinking, that threatens any hope of a better world.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHighlights the importance of realizing that systems theory is an essential foundation for any technology that hopes to positively transform our world.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEmphasizes the need for a radical new approach to AI, based on ecological systems.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExplains why ecosystem intelligence, not human intelligence, offers the best framework for AI.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamines how this new approach will impact on the three arenas of society, environment and economics, ushering in a new age of re-integration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Keith Ronald Skene\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 036743654X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367436544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.13w x 0.58d","brand":"Keith Ronald Skene","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995843854591,"sku":"9780367436544","price":31.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_834bf386-1d43-4369-bf2e-e0f3faee0e5f.jpg?v=1683338183","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/artificial-intelligence-and-the-environmental-keith-r-skene-9780367436544","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
