New publication by Dr Emanuel Camilleri on how AI may impact humanity
Dr Emanuel Camilleri, Visiting Senior Lecturer from the Faculty of Economics, Management & Accountancy, authored a recently-published book titled 'Artificial Intelligence from Science Fiction to Reality: How AI May Impact Humanity'.
Dr Camilleri is also a Chairperson on the Planning Board of the Planning Authority.
The book, published by Routledge (Taylor & Francis Group), talks about the evolution of human and artificial intelligence (AI).
It places AI in its proper context and discusses non-technical aspects, such as philosophical and social issues. The major challenge leaders are likely to encounter is deciding what functions are to be entrusted to AI and how humanity can exercise control over them. The book also focuses on the hardware and software technology that support AI, and the essential cyber security systems that are required to address the evolving AI threat landscape. It examines centres for AI safety that are non-profit research organisations, which focus on the mitigation of AI risks by proposing solutions against threat actors.
The book discusses the knowledge-based economy, particularly Enterprise AI, and examines the ethical and legal issues that emerge from the practical implications of AI. The differences between key economic approaches, such as knowledge-based economy, digital economy and automated economy are examined, and how these will be impacted by AI in relation to job displacement, data privacy and security, and algorithmic bias.
It has been endorsed by Hon. Silvio Schembri, Malta's Minister for the Economy, Enterprise and Strategic Projects.
