"Artificial Intelligence fuels both panic and enthusiasm. Technologists are inclined to give their creations leeway, pretend they're animated beings, and consider them efficient. Users complain when these technologies don't obey; we worry about their influence on our choices and our livelihoods; and we yearn for their convenience. We see ourselves reflected in them, and we treat them as something entirely new. However unwillingly, when we overestimate the performance of these tools, we fail to recognize how our fellow humans contribute to their efficiency. In this bracing and powerful book, sociologist and award-winning author Antonio Casilli uses up-to-the-minute research to show how AI continues to exploit human labor, including yours. He connects the diverse activities of today's tech laborers: platform laborers, like Uber drivers and Airbnb hosts; remote workers, performing atomized tasks like data entry on Amazon Mechanical Turk; and you, as you evaluate text or images to show you're not a robot, react to Facebook posts, or approve ChatGPT output. Using diverse examples, Casilli reveals that most "automation" still requires human labor, showing both tomorrow's threats and today's consequences for failing to recognize and compensate human workers"-- An essential investigation that pulls back the curtain on automation, like AI, to show human workers hidden labor. Artificial Intelligence fuels both enthusiasm and panic. Technologists are inclined to give their creations leeway, pretend theyre animated beings, and consider them efficient. As users, we may complain when these technologies dont obey, or worry about their influence on our choices and our livelihoods. And yet, we also yearn for their convenience, see ourselves reflected in them, and treat them as something entirely new. But when we overestimate the automation of these tools, award-winning author Antonio A. Casilli argues, we fail to recognize how our fellow humans are essential to their efficiency. The danger is not that robots will take our jobs, but that humans will have to do theirs. In this bracing and powerful book, Casilli uses up-to-the-minute research to show how todays technologies, including AI, continue to exploit human laboreven ours. He connects the diverse activities of todays tech laborers: platform workers, like Uber drivers and Airbnb hosts; micro workers, including those performing atomized tasks like data entry on Amazon Mechanical Turk; and the rest of us, as we evaluate text or images to show were not robots, react to Facebook posts, or approve or improve the output of generative AI. As Casilli shows us, algorithms, search engines, and voice assistants wouldnt function without unpaid or underpaid human contributions. Further, he warns that if we fail to recognize this human work, we risk a dark future for all human labor. Waiting for Robots urges us to move beyond the simplistic notion that machines are intelligent and autonomous. As the proverbial Godot, robots are the bearers of a messianic promise that is always postponed. Instead of bringing prosperity for all, they discipline the workforce, so we dont dream of a world without drudgery and exploitation. Casillis eye-opening book makes clear that most automation requires human laborand likely always willshedding new light on todays consequences and tomorrows threats of failing to recognize and compensate the click workers of today. <br><br> Autorid: Antonio A.

For however smart your Roomba or Alexa might seem, historically, robots have been fairly dumb. They are only able to do their jobs when given a narrow set of tasks, confined in a controlled environment, and overseen by a human operator. But things are changing. A new breed of robots is in development that will operate largely on their own. They'll drive on roads and sidewalks, ferry deliveries within buildings, stock shelves in stores, and coordinate teams of doctors and nurses. These autonomous systems will find their way into busy, often unpredictable public spaces. They could be truly collaborative, augmenting human work by attending to the parts of tasks we don't do as well, without our having to stop and direct them. But consider, for a moment, the sorcerer's apprentice. The broom he set to work was also supposed to be collaborative, too, and should have made his life much easier. But the broom didn't know how to behave, and the apprentice no longer understood the thing he had made. The challenge of this next generation of robots is that, like the apprentice's broom, they will wreak complete havoc, inadvertently hurting or even killing people, unless we can recognize a simple truth: collaborative robots will be the first truly social creatures that technology has created. They will need to know how to behave in unfamiliar spaces and around untrained users and bystanders. Robot experts Julie Shah and Laura Major are among those engineers leading the development of collaborative robots, and in this book, they will offer their vision for how to make it in the new era of human-robot collaboration. They set out the blueprint for what they call working robots, which in many ways resemble service animals, and take readers through the many fascinating and surprising challenges that both engineers and the public will need to address in figuring out these machines can be responsibly integrated into society: what they will have to look like, how they will have to talk to strangers and what robot etiquette will be, whether we will have to "robot-proof" public spaces and infrastructure, and how the safety-critical work of human-robot collaboration will force a sea change in how the tech industry is regulated. Today, we still gawk at a car that drives by without a driver. Tomorrow, you might find yourself driving next to five of them. We can debate whether the singularity will ever come, but robots need not be superintelligent in order to revolutionize our relationship to technology. Read this book to find out how. <br><br> Autorid: Julie Shah, Laura Major <br>
