I'll post an exchange that I had with a few students who were working on a school paper about "AI & real life". Some of the questions are related to the acceptance, or its opposite: the different worries that an "intelligent" Information System may trigger.Yves Caseauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04812034190333969728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-438942112364524044.post-84203328553538306312006-12-01T15:02:00.000-08:002006-12-01T15:02:00.000-08:00Bonjour Yves,

La biologie des systèmes d'information sera à coup sûr un sujet passionnant. <br />Rapprocher les SI de l'humain devient à mon sens LA priorité. <br />Et hop, le site est désormais dans mes favoris.<br />RDV aussi sur : www.datanews.frChristophehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10007407546479956226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-438942112364524044.post-28800681368076598232006-11-28T08:09:00.000-08:002006-11-28T08:09:00.000-08:00Hi Yves, a few comments...

"IS livelyhood" is just 2 or 3 clicks away from becoming a reality, and therefore needs to be deeply thought about before emerging.<br /><br />2) my only references about "IS livelyhood" will comme from SF : a few books for you, now that your new job should leave you more time for reading a thinking ;-) :<br />- Frank Herbert : "Destination : Vide" -> where "AI" becomes... God! a must-read !<br />- Greg Egan (famous "hard-science" SF writer) "La cité des permutants" -> best book I read about artificial life and virtual worlds ; another must-read !<br />- more "mass market" : Michael Crichton "Prey" -> nanotechs, parallel programming, "ethologic computing"<br />(tell me if you're interested, I'll drop you a copy of the books)<br /><br />3) technology is nothing without acceptance (social, corporate, managerial, etc...)... therefore thinking and working on acceptance is as important as thinking and working on technology itself...<br /><br />Have fun !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-438942112364524044.post-69520785882625906242006-11-24T01:49:00.000-08:002006-11-24T01:49:00.000-08:00Very interesting topics, and good idea to develop ...Very interesting topics, and good idea to develop them; they're new for me.
