Thoughts of a Reformed Computer Scientist: On the Nature of Real and Artificial Intelligence - Paperback

by James Morris (Author)

What were we thinking as we created the computer revolution? Was it good for humanity?

Thoughts of a Reformed Computer Scientist is a search for intelligence across multiple facets of the human condition-religion and science, evolution, and innovation.

Jim Morris's memoir covers his sixty-year career in computer science and weaves the reader through the complex land of computer technology and the nuanced world of human behavior. From his days as a student, a professor, and an innovator at Carnegie Mellon, MIT, Berkeley, and Xerox PARC to recent AI advances Morris describes his work and his enthusiasms along with several Turing Award winners and tech entrepreneurs and ultimately asks us to ponder what they were thinking as they created the computer revolution.
