Rezensionen

"Artificial Intelligence is continuously presented as the technology that will help solve some of the most complex problems of contemporary society, including the fight against climate change and global warming. However, reducing modern problems to mere engineering solutions is not straightforward and may have adverse consequences too. In this book, Sætra shows in an elegant and simple way how AI can indeed be a potential solution to some of the most pressing issues humanity is facing today. Yet, it also alerts about the dangers AI may entail without appropriate oversight and highlights the role and responsibilities of those wielding influence over such great powers. An excellent read and a stepping stone towards having AI serving the Sustainable Development Goals." -- Dr. Eduard Fosch-Villaronga, Assistant Professor, eLaw Center for Law and Digital Technologies, Leiden University.
