Abstract:
Artificial intelligence (AI) is often discussed as something extraordinary, a dream - or a nightmare - that awakens metaphysical questions on human life. Yet far from a distant technology of the future, the true power of AI lies in its subtle revolution of ordinary life. From voice assistants like Siri to natural language processors, AI technologies use cultural biases and modern psychology to fit specific characteristics of how users perceive and navigate the external world, thereby projecting the illusion of intelligence. Integrating media studies, science and technology studies, and social psychology, 'Deceitful Media' examines the rise of artificial intelligence throughout history and exposes the very human fallacies behind this technology.
