The authors of “Artificial Intelligence Doesn’t Think (Neither Does the Brain)”, Miguel Benasayag and Ariel Pennisi, analyze the risks of what they call “technoscientific colonization of the living”, explain why what seemed like science fiction is on the way to ceasing to be so and raise a question: do we function or do we exist? Redacción Canal Abierto Artificial Intelligence (AI) is present in the facial detection of cell phones, in virtual voice assistants such as Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa or Microsoft’s Cortana and in most of the applications of our everyday devices. The machinery works thanks to the contribution we make in each search on Google or similar, thus providing a large database and feeding an algorithm (an ordered set of systematic operations that allow a calculation to be made and the solution to a problem to be found). In Artificial Intelligence Doesn't Think (Neither Does the Brain), Miguel Benasayag and Ariel Pennisi problematize the different dimensions of the challenge represented by this unprecedented technological leap in the history of humanity, in particular since the massive diffusion of chats based on Artificial Intelligence. Contrary to a media system eager to issue definitive sentences, Canal Abierto proposes a dialogue with more questions than answers about the ethical and political difference between the organism-artifact hybridization, the risks of a techno-scientific colonization of the living and the dichotomy function-exist.
