Sinossi
L'intelligenza artificiale, i big data, la scienza moderna e internet stanno portando alla luce una verità fondamentale: il mondo è enormemente più complesso e imprevedibile di quanto ci sia permesso di vedere. Ma quella che stiamo vivendo è una trasformazione della società che ha radici e ripercussioni ben più profonde della stessa tecnologia, poiché coinvolge il nostro modo di conoscere la realtà e noi stessi. L'ultimo libro di David Weinberger ha il grande pregio di mettere l'uomo al centro della rivoluzione digitale in corso. Non si tratta, per l'autore della Stanza intelligente, di arrendersi davanti alla complessità e all'imprevedibilità del mondo contemporaneo e delle nostre società caotiche e disordinate. Al contrario, si tratta di comprendere come questa loro natura così articolata e mutevole possa diventare un volano, uno strumento di profonda innovazione, una leva creativa per ripensare il nostro ruolo nel mondo.

First, my confession is I know little about technology. Every once in a while, however, I push myself to leave my favourite Victorian novelists and read something that will stretch my brain.

Machine learning means that organizations can now make predictions that humans can't entirely explain. Is this a bad thing? And what are the implications of such a world? This is a fascinating book based on the key premise and questions above. Rife with interesting examples and cited research, Weinb Leggi tutto
I was expecting to enjoy this book a lot more than I did. The first half was good, but the second quite slow and repetitive. I wish it had gone deeper, and quite honestly I skimmed the last 50 pages before deciding I was finished with one chapter to go.
A good book that puts complexity into perspective. It shatters the illusion that we are in control and that we can really anticipate the future, at the same time introducing a view of the world where human endeavor earns its place. The book is at its strongest in the beginning, looses some force aft Leggi tutto
The books starts well but the author loses me in second half. Read the book again in 2023...and while there were some good references, the book did not fail to disappoint yet again!
This David Weinberger book brings us up to date on his thinking. Weinberger has been a prophet for the value of the Internet for decades, and in this book he confesses that it isn't all good--that the voices of the 'Net haven't changed the world in the way he imagined they might.
