A Turing Award-winning computer scientist and statistician shows how understanding causality has revolutionized science and will revolutionize artificial intelligence
"Correlation is not causation." This mantra, chanted by scientists for more than a century, has led to a virtual prohibition on causal talk. Today, that taboo is dead. The causal revolution, instigated by Judea Pearl and his colleagues, has cut through a century of confusion and established causality--the study of cause and effect--on a firm scientific basis. His work explains how we can know easy things, like whether it was rain or a sprinkler that made a sidewalk wet; and how to answer hard questions, like whether a drug cured an illness. Pearl's work enables us to know not just whether one thing causes another: it lets us explore the world that is and the worlds that could have been. It shows us the essence of human thought and key to artificial intelligence. Anyone who wants to understand either needs The Book of Why.
Judea Pearl is a professor of computer science at UCLA and winner of the 2011 Turing Award and the author of three classic technical books on causality. He lives in Los Angeles, California.
Dana Mackenzie is an award-winning science writer and the author of The Big Splat, or How Our Moon Came to Be. He lives in Santa Cruz, California.
期待深度学习碰壁的那一天
评分very easy to read, 文笔流畅,想一口气读下去!可惜现在是凌晨一点。 有点想重拾两年前看了一点的他写的casuality了
评分非常棒的一本计算机科学的科普书,可读性强,并且,作者也有哲学的深度。没有给5星是因为对科普的兴趣没有对经济学那么感兴趣
评分skip stats. model counterfactual.
评分终于!看完了!醍醐灌顶!太精彩!基本改变了对统计的认知!9.6-9.24,amazing的18天阅读体验。
作为一名学习经管类专业的学生,这本书给了我许多更深入的思考。作者作为人工智能领域的专家,对于因果关系的理解鞭辟入里,使人茅塞顿开。例如开篇提及,在统计学课程上,学生们经常被教导“相关性不代表因果”,但往往很多的教导都止步于此——学生们知道了什么不是因果,却...
评分2016年,在大数据的帮助下,人工智能(AI)围棋软件AlphaGo在系列赛中以4:1战胜了世界围棋顶尖高手李世石,震惊了全人类。 当时网络上有人戏谑道:“人工智能赢了不可怕,至少说明它还不懂得韬光隐晦,如果它假装输给人类,那才更加可怕。”这句看似戏言的话,却暗藏了人工智能...
评分 评分这些人发明了如此简单而常用的东西,以至所有人都忘了这些东西也需要人发明出来。 非常匆忙地读了一遍之后,脑子里第一时间浮现的是小说《好兆头》里的这句话,它基本上是我对这本书印象的完美概括。 经济学专业的学生,如果选过一些 policy evaluation 和 causal inference 方...
