Artificial Intelligence History

In this witty and conversational dive into the world of AI and autonomous driving, you'll embark on a journey that's part tech manual, part science fiction and entirely fascinating. From the magic of neural networks to the thrilling idea of a car that practically drives itself, this book unpacks the science of self-driving cars, large language models, and artificial intelligence in a way that's refreshingly human.

L'intelligence artificielle peut vous instruire, écrire vos chansons, façonner vos désirs. Elle est brillante. Elle est utile. Elle peut tout "faire"... Sauf respirer. Sauf aimer. Sauf être. Le Souffle de la Machine n'est pas un livre sur la technologie. C'est un livre sur nous. Demain, l'intelligence artificielle permettra à un employé de faire en 10 heures le travail de 40. La vraie question n'est pas technologique, elle est humaine: que ferons-nous de ces 30 heures libérées? Exigerons-nous de cet employé qu'il produise quatre fois plus?

Liquid Computing envisions a future beyond apps and interfaces—a world where artificial intelligence is ambient, adaptive, and seamlessly embedded in daily life. In this era, we don’t “use” computers; we live inside intelligent flows that span devices, contexts, and interactions. The book traces the evolution from hardware to cloud to AI as a responsive, invisible operating medium—always learning, assisting, and co-creating with us. It introduces the Liquid Interface, where interaction is natural, multimodal, and emotionally aware. Instead of commands, we converse.

Artificial Intelligence is a field that developed so rapidly, that we didn’t even have the time to question its influence on our day-to-day lives. The benefits of its development boost are visible in many industries and, consequently, in our personal lives. Think about all the apps, tools, and technologies that ease and improve our daily activities.

Progress in artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning, and robotics allows new capabilities that will affect military strategies assertively. The implications of these developments will be felt across the array of military criteria from knowledge, surveillance, and identification to balances of offense and defense, as well as to the nuclear weapons programs themselves.

Declassified is a raw, thought-provoking conversation that dives straight into the questions shaping our future: intelligence and the limits of the Turing Test, ethics by design, surveillance capitalism, social media’s paradoxes, the future of work, AI-powered warfare, climate risk, love in the age of algorithms, the uncanny valley, the road to AGI, and the futures we might build... or fear.

By one of San Francisco’s foremost chroniclers, the story of the city’s meteoric transformation into a global capital of technology, and how the same creative and political forces that gave rise to its boom nearly engineered its collapse. At the dawn of the 1990s, San Francisco was a...

Strategy, Evolution, and War is a cautionary preview of how artificial intelligence (AI) will revolutionize strategy more than any development in the last 3,000 years of military history. Kenneth Payne describes strategy as an evolved package of conscious and unconscious behaviors with roots in our primate ancestry. Our minds were shaped by the need to think about warfare, a constant threat for early humans. As a result, we developed a sophisticated and strategic intelligence.

A groundbreaking new lens on human history arguing that data has always been the seed of power—those who hold it have drawn and enforced borders, exploited nature, and governed lives—and that reckoning with this legacy must galvanize us to resist it. Historians have pointed to guns, germs...

In this profound and urgent new book, leading thinker on technology Kester Brewin shows how AI is both stunningly new and rooted in the most ancient human desires. Hailed by the UK government's own lead on AI as 'god-like', as we finally welcome this stunning technology amongst us—with Frankenstein and Faustus, from the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel to the underbelly of Silicon Valley—Brewin skillfully leads us through the myths, machines, and monsters that have influenced the development of our greatest and most longed-for invention, and how we can learn to live alongside it.

Literary Theory for Robots reveals the hidden history of modern machine intelligence, taking listeners on a spellbinding journey from medieval Arabic philosophy to visions of a universal language, past Hollywood fiction factories, and missile defense systems trained on Russian folktales. In this provocative reflection on the shared pasts of literature and computer science, former Microsoft engineer and professor of comparative literature Dennis Yi Tenen provides crucial context for recent developments in AI, which holds important lessons for the future of humans living with smart technology.
