Deception is a key element for the operation of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This is the main premise of Simone Natale’s Deceitful Media: artificial intelligence and social life after the Turing test (2021). This type of technology, argues the Italian researcher, relies on aspects of human perception and psychology to create the illusion of intelligence. Thus, the author proposes that we begin to consider the different levels of deception involved in the communication process between humans and machines that “appear intelligent”. That would allow a better understanding of the real risks and the ethical, social e cultural implications.
