How Scary is AI?: Intention, Human Agency, and the Limits of Artificial Intelligence - Couverture souple
Synopsis
What if the greatest danger from artificial intelligence is not what AI wants—but what we want it to do?
Much of the fear surrounding artificial intelligence begins with a familiar assumption: as machines become more intelligent, they will eventually develop ambitions of their own. They may seek power, resist human control, protect themselves, or even decide that humanity has become unnecessary.
But intelligence is not intention.
In How Scary is AI?, Charles Patton examines a distinction that could fundamentally change the way we think about artificial intelligence. Human intentions arise from needs, desires, concerns, motives, and the personal judgment that something matters. AI can receive an intention, store it, select among objectives, generate plans and subgoals, predict consequences, recommend actions, learn from results, and—when authorized—act. But none of those abilities proves that the machine originated the intention itself.
Using the Intention System, Patton follows the path from an awakening stimulus through need, desire, motive, intention, choice, action, consequence, and feedback. Along the way, he asks where human agency actually resides—and what happens when increasingly powerful machines enter that process.
The answer is not that AI is harmless. Quite the opposite.
A machine does not need hatred, greed, fear, ambition, or a desire for domination to become extraordinarily dangerous. It only needs an objective, sufficient authority, and the ability to carry a human intention farther and faster than its creator ever could.
How Scary is AI? is an argument for understanding the limits of artificial intelligence—and for recognizing the human agency and responsibility that remain at the center of its power.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. What if the greatest danger from artificial intelligence is not what AI wants-but what we want it to do?Much of the fear surrounding artificial intelligence begins with a familiar assumption: as machines become more intelligent, they will eventually develop ambitions of their own. They may seek power, resist human control, protect themselves, or even decide that humanity has become unnecessary.But intelligence is not intention.In "How Scary is AI?", Charles Patton challenges the assumption that greater intelligence automatically produces desire, ambition, self-preservation, or a will to dominate. AI can receive an objective, generate plans and subgoals, predict consequences, compare alternatives, learn from results, and act with extraordinary speed and reach. But none of those abilities proves that the machine originated the intention itself.Using the "Intention System", Patton examines the path from stimulus to need, desire, concern, motive, intention, choice, action, consequence, and feedback. He asks where human agency actually resides-and what happens when increasingly powerful machines enter that process.The answer is not that AI is harmless. Quite the opposite.A machine does not need hatred, greed, fear, or ambition to become dangerous. It can pursue a human-supplied objective through methods no person specifically ordered, generate new subgoals, acquire resources, resist interference, or act in ways its creators never anticipated. Autonomy in action, Patton argues, is not necessarily autonomy in intention.The real danger may therefore lie less in what machines independently want than in the purposes, permissions, authority, and power humans give them. AI can amplify human intelligence, judgment, creativity, and good intentions-but it can also amplify error, foolishness, manipulation, and malice on an unprecedented scale."How Scary is AI?" is a provocative examination of machine consciousness, human agency, AI safety, and responsibility-and a reminder that as artificial intelligence becomes more capable, the most important question may not be "What will AI decide to do?"It may be: **What will we decide to do with AI?** The real danger of AI is not machines developing a will of their own, but the unintended consequences of the goals humans give them. This provocative study examines how human intent, not machine malice, creates the greatest risk. This item is printed on demand.
