Only Logic Can Save Us From Powerful-and-Autonomous AI & Robots : Making Morally X Machines

This book provides the logic-based path by which humanity can neutralize the existential threat posed by machines that are at once powerful, autonomous, intelligent, and potentially immoral.The path is made clear by analysis of four Star Trek TOS episodes in which malevolent, destructive machines are thwarted by logic.Anyone who wishes to ward off a future in which humanity is harmed or even outright destroyed by AI, or perhaps even wishes to directly contribute to this warding off, is a member of the book’s intended audience.
