Computer Power And Human Reason by Joseph Weizenbaum

From Judgment to Calculation

This thought-provoking work delves into the ethical and philosophical implications of artificial intelligence and computer technology, challenging the notion that computers can fully replicate human thought and decision-making. It argues for the importance of maintaining human oversight and moral responsibility in the development and application of technology, warning against the potential dangers of over-reliance on machines. Through a series of compelling arguments and examples, the book emphasizes the need for a balanced approach that respects human values and the limitations of computational power.
