The Heart and the Chip: Our Bright Future with Robots
By Daniela Rus, the Andrew and Erna Viterbi Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and director of the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory; and Gregory Mone
W. W. Norton and Company · 2024
In "The Heart and the Chip," Rus and Mone provide an overview of the interconnected fields of robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, and reframe the way we think about intelligent machines while weighing the moral and ethical consequences of their role in society. Robots aren't going to steal our jobs, they argue; they're going to make us more capable, productive, and precise.
From Summer 2024 recommended reading from MIT (MIT News).
