Connections: Patterns of Discovery
John Wiley and Sons Ltd, Jan 2008, Pages: 224
This book uses a discussion of past developments, an analysis of patterns of discovery, and a debate of prospective technology to synthesize a cohesive and compelling vision. It challenges the reader to think of the consequences of extrapolating trends, such as Moore's Law, to either reach real machine intelligence, or else retrench in the face of physical limitations. From this perspective, the book draws the 'big picture' for the Information Revolution's innovations in chips, devices, software and networks. The goal is to forecast ubiquitous intelligence where everyone is connected to devices with access to Artificial Intelligence (AI) -- offering what Google founder Larry Page calls 'perfect search.'
