Computer security; Artificial intelligence

Series: Chapman & Hall/CRC Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Series

The history of robotics and artificial intelligence in many ways is also the history of humanity’s attempts to control such technologies. From the Golem of Prague to the military robots of modernity, the debate continues as to what degree of independence such entities should have and how to make sure that they do not turn on us, its inventors. Numerous recent advancements in all aspects of research, development and deployment of intelligent systems are well publicized but safety and security issues related to AI are rarely addressed. This book is proposed to mitigate this fundamental problem. It is comprised of chapters from leading AI Safety researchers addressing different aspects of the AI control problem as it relates to the development of safe and secure artificial intelligence. The book is the first edited volume dedicated to addressing challenges of constructing safe and secure advanced machine intelligence.

The chapters vary in length and technical content from broad interest opinion essays to highly formalized algorithmic approaches to specific problems. All chapters are self-contained and could be read in any order or skipped without a loss of comprehension.

Reviews for Artificial Intelligence Safety and Security

Artificial intelligence: Safety and Security is a timely and ambitious edited volume. It comprises 28 chapters organized under three distinct themes: security, artificial intelligence and safety. Edited by Roman V. Yampolskiy, the contributions are well integrated and challenge common conceptions. Yampolskiy has assembled a diverse team of leading scholars. In sum, the book provides valuable insight into the cyber ecosystem. It can be read in any order without missing the essence of the subject matter, yet the chapters speak to each other. The chapters provide insight into new research areas and experimental designs. The book is a must-read for computer scientists, security experts, mathematicians, students and individuals who are interested in learning more about the progress of the artificial intelligence field. It will also be of interest to hackers and the intelligence community. -International Affairs, Volume 95, Issue 3, May 2019, Pages 728-729, https://doi.org/10.1093/ia/iiz016 There are those of us who philosophize and debate the finer points surrounding the dangers of artificial intelligence. And then there are those who dare go in the trenches and get their hands dirty by doing the actual work that may just end up making the difference. So if AI turns out to be like the terminator then Prof. Roman Yampolskiy may turn out to be like John Connor - but better. Because instead of fighting by using guns and brawn he is utilizing computer science, human intelligence and code. -Nikola Danaylov (author of Conversations with the Future: 21 Visions for the 21st Century) Artificial Intelligence Safety and Security is an interesting read to learn about risks associated with the rapid growth of autonomous AI systems around us. While benefits of such systems are going to be enormous, so will be the risks if their power is left unchecked. A skillfully edited volume by my Computer Science and Engineering University of Louisville colleague, Dr. Roman Yampolskiy. -Jacek ZURADA, Ph.D., Candidate for IEEE President, IEEE Life Fellow, Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Department, University of Louisville This amazing and brand-new book with 47 contributors and more than 470 densely packed pages will immediately be recognized as indispensable in the AI safety and AI futurology literature. Among the 28 chapters, the first 11 more or less have the status of modern classics. The remaining 17 are new ... -Olle Haggstroem, Professor of mathematical statistics at Chalmers University
