La La Manzana de Turing: Un Viaje Histórico, Literario Y Filosófico Por La Inteligencia Artificial - Paperback

by José Ramón Jouve Martín (Author)

This is a book about an obsession that runs parallel to our history as a civilization: the desire to create artificial beings with an intelligence similar to our own. Achieving this goal constitutes the Holy Grail of artificial intelligence. Through a historical, philosophical, and literary journey, José Ramó n Jouve Martí n explores how this idea emerged, why its development has accelerated since the late 20th century, and how it challenges fundamental concepts such as thought, creativity, and consciousness. Artificial intelligence is not just a technology, but a mirror in which we can look at ourselves. With a multidisciplinary approach, the author traces the evolution of artificial intelligence in parallel with our own searches, encounters, and failures. From Greek myths and the golems of Jewish tradition to current debates about "superintelligence," this book analyzes not only the existential fears and hopes that IA suggests, but also its hability to place ourselves in front of own contradictions, all together with a profound (and welcomed), sense of humor.
