CILE 1973: IL GOLPE DELL’ INTELLIGENZA ARTIFICIALE. INTERVISTA AL PROF. ANDREA CERRONI
L’11 settembre 1973 viene rovesciato il governo di Salvador Allende. L’episodio segna storicamente l’ascesa del neoliberismo. Insieme al colpo di stato politico, però, ve ne è stato un altro che ha segnato la storia dell’informatica e che ha portato all’attuale sviluppo dell’Intelligenza Artificiale (e della Artificial Intelligence) secondo una direzione determinata da un preciso apparato politico-economico-militare-culturale. Ne parliamo con il professore Andrea Cerroni, docente all’Università Bicocca di Milano, che, da sempre, approfondisce questi e altri temi e che ci ha spiegato la correlazione tra Salvador Allende e l’informatica.
