Some of engineering's mightiest achievements are small in scale, even hidden—and yet, without them, the complex machinery on which our modern world runs would not exist. In Nuts and Bolts, Roma Agrawal examines seven of these extraordinary elements: the nail, the wheel, the spring, the lens, the magnet, the string, and the pump. From the physics behind both Roman nails and modern skyscrapers to rudimentary springs that inspired lithium batteries, Agrawal shows us how even the most sophisticated items are built on the foundations of these ancient and fundamental breakthroughs in engineering.

Decision intelligence (DI) has been widely named as a top technology trend for several years, and Gartner reports that more than a third of large organizations are adopting it. Some even say that DI is the next step in the evolution of AI. Many software vendors offer DI solutions today, as they help organizations implement their evidence-based or data-driven decision strategies. But until now, there has been little practical guidance for organizations to formalize decision making and integrate their decisions with data. With this book, authors L. Y. Pratt and N. E. Malcolm fill this gap.

The idea that human history is approaching a "singularity" - that ordinary humans will someday be overtaken by artificially intelligent machines or cognitively enhanced biological intelligence, or both - has moved from the realm of science fiction to serious debate. Some singularity theorists predict that if the field of artificial intelligence (AI) continues to develop at its current dizzying rate, the singularity could come about in the middle of the present century.

¿Te parece imposible la idea de defender tu presencia digital de amenazas invisibles? Aquí tienes una verdad contundente: no necesitas ser un experto en tecnología para dominar los conceptos básicos de ciberseguridad. De hecho, solo estás a un libro de transformar tu vida digital y proteger tu información personal y profesional contra las fuerzas oscuras del mundo cibernético.

We’ve all heard the sweeping claims: “AI will take over all our jobs!" or "AI will solve every problem and create a perfect world!" But what’s the reality behind these dramatic predictions? With the constant buzz about artificial intelligence, it’s natural to feel anxious, confused, and overwhelmed. humAIn cuts through the hype and fear, offering a practical, human-centered guide to AI that empowers you to take control.

Structured query language, or SQL (pronounced "sequel" by many), is the most widely used programming language in database management and is the standard language for relational database management systems (RDBMS). SQL programming allows users to return, analyze, create, manage, and delete data within a database - all within a few commands.

In Robot-Proof, Northeastern University president Joseph Aoun proposes a way to educate the next generation of college students to invent, to create, and to discover - to fill needs in society that even the most sophisticated artificial intelligence agent cannot. A "robot-proof" education, Aoun argues, is not concerned solely with topping up students' minds with high-octane facts. Rather, it calibrates them with a creative mindset and the mental elasticity to invent, discover, or create something valuable to society.

Since their introduction in 2017, transformers have quickly become the dominant architecture for achieving state-of-the-art results on a variety of natural language processing tasks. If you're a data scientist or coder, this practical book shows you how to train and scale these large models using Hugging Face Transformers, a Python-based deep learning library.

The Uncanny Muse explores the history of automation in the arts and delves into one of the most momentous and controversial aspects of AI: artificial creativity. The adoption of technology and machinery has long transformed the world, but as the potential for artificial intelligence expands, David Hajdu examines the new, increasingly urgent questions about technology's role in culture.

Künstliche Intelligenz: Expertenwissen gegen Hysterie. Der renommierte Gehirnforscher, Psychiater und Bestseller-Autor Manfred Spitzer ist ein ausgewiesener Experte für neuronale Netze, auf denen KI aufbaut. Sein topaktuelles Hörbuch über künstliche Intelligenz informiert, klärt auf – und macht klar, dass niemand vorhersehen kann, ob mit KI Rettung oder Untergang auf die Menschheit zukommt. »Wir brauchen nicht darüber nachzudenken, ob eine allgemeine KI irgendwann Bewusstsein hat oder die Menschheit vernichtet – das ist Science Fiction.«

Advances in Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) have created a new class of computer systems that exhibit astonishing proficiency on a wide variety of tasks with superhuman performance, producing novel text, images, music, and software by analyzing enormous collections of digitized information. Soon, these systems will provide expert medical care; offer legal advice; draft documents; write computer programs; tutor our children; and generate music and art. These advances will accelerate progress in science, art, and human knowledge, but they will also bring new dangers.

Imagine having a digital partner that helps you write, organize, solve problems, plan, create, brainstorm, analyze, and execute faster than you ever could alone. That’s the promise of AI when you use it correctly. Unlocking AI Power breaks everything down simply, clearly, and practically. No jargon. No complexity. Just real skills you can use the same day.

In Deep Learning Patterns and Practices you will learn: Internal functioning of modern convolutional neural networks, procedural reuse design pattern for CNN architectures, models for mobile and IoT devices, assembling large-scale model deployments, optimizing hyperparameter tuning, and migrating a model to a production environment.

If you feel like you're losing your teen to technology, you're not alone. Screen time is rapidly replacing family time, and for teens especially, it is hardwiring the way they connect with their world. In Screens and Teens, Dr. Kathy helps you make sense of all this and empowers you to respond.

People have always liked to know what's going on in the outside world. Today we can instantly access the news through the Internet. But how did people get the news before cell phones and TV? From ancient Rome to newspapers and telegraph machines, this story takes a brief look at how people have gotten the news throughout history.

In Electronic Dreams, Tom Lean tells the story of how computers invaded British homes for the first time, as people set aside their worries of electronic brains and Big Brother and embraced the wonder technology of the 1980s. This book charts the history of the rise and fall of the home computer, the family of futuristic and quirky machines that took computing from the realm of science and science fiction to being a user-friendly domestic technology.
