It acknowledges the potential of information technology. At the same time, it points to societal threats such as privacy violations and ethical concerns around artificial intelligence, automation and loss of jobs, ongoing monopolization on the Web, and sovereignty. Digital Humanism aims to address these topics with a sense of urgency but with a constructive mindset. The book argues for a Digital Humanism that analyses and, most importantly, influences the complex interplay of technology and humankind toward a better society and life while fully respecting universal human rights. It is a call to shaping technologies in accordance with human values and needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hannes Werthner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030861465\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030861469\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/24\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 343\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.75d","brand":"Hannes Werthner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981616546047,"sku":"9783030861469","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6a9e1b30-6dc8-437d-b611-ece793bdd444.jpg?v=1683256573","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/perspectives-on-digital-humanism-hannes-werthner-9783030861469","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
