Intelligence Philosophy

In The Paradox of Progress, Dr. Michael M. Karch delves into the ethical complexities of AI’s rapid evolution. Drawing from a career spanning three decades in robotics, orthopedic surgery, and international disaster response, Dr. Karch investigates AI’s far-reaching impact and initiates critical discussion about its duality. This is a compelling exploration through historical precedents of progress and AI’s challenges today, including fears of data bias, deep fakes, technological hegemony, and job displacement.

Peter Ralston's exceptionally lucid trilogy on the nature of human consciousness culminates here in The Genius of Being, a book of deep contemplations on the unseen elements that create our world. The first volume, The Book of Not Knowing, garnered much praise as a comprehensive exploration of the depths of self and consciousness.

AI: A phrase that intrigues some, confuses many, and brings fear to others. Whether you're a teacher looking to stay ahead or a parent curious about AI's impact on your child's education, you have questions. Can AI enhance teaching without overwhelming you? Can it tailor learning experiences? Can it be ethical and protect student data? If these concerns resonate, you've found the right book.

Ewolucja człowieka a w szczególności jego umysłu jest jedną z największych zagadek natury. Koncepcja inteligencji makiawelicznej wyjaśnia w jaki sposób złożoność życia społecznego doprowadziła do powstania tak złożonego mózgu jakim obecnie dysponujemy. Autor wyjaśnia pochodzenie inteligencji społecznej i politycznej. Pokazuje w jaki sposób teoria umysłu, czyli umiejętność przewidywania motywów działania innych osobników stymulowała rozwój naszej inteligencji, w jaki sposób wykształcała się w nas umiejętność obrony przedmakiawelicznymi zakusami innych.

This book is the first to examine the history of imaginative thinking about intelligent machines. As real Artificial Intelligence (AI) begins to touch on all aspects of our lives, this long narrative history shapes how the technology is developed, deployed, and regulated. It is therefore a crucial social and ethical issue. Part I of this book provides a historical overview from ancient Greece to the start of modernity. Part II focuses on the 20th and 21st centuries in which a greater density of narratives emerge alongside rapid developments in AI technology.

In a world where artificial intelligence sees everything, the very notion of secrecy vanishes. Every crime—no matter how trivial, how carefully buried by time or circumstance—emerges into the light. It is identified, reconstructed, and rendered undeniable. Nothing remains hidden. But when every crime is solved, another problem arises: what should be done with the countless guilty? A system built to handle a few exceptional cases collapses under the pressure of universality.

When most of us think about artificial intelligence, our minds go straight to cyborgs, robots, and sci-fi thrillers where machines take over the world. But the truth is that artificial intelligence is already among us. It exists in our smartphones, fitness trackers, and refrigerators that tell us when the milk will expire. In some ways the future people dreamed of at the World's Fair in the 1960s is already here. We're teaching our machines how to think like humans, and they're learning at an incredible rate.

Kristie Macrakis combines a storyteller's sense of drama with a historian's respect for evidence in this pause-resisting history of intrigue and espionage, love and war, magic and secrecy. From the piazzas of ancient Rome to the spy capitals of the Cold War, Macrakis' global history reveals the drama and importance of invisible ink. From Ovid's advice to use milk for illicit love notes, to al-Qaeda's hidden instructions in pornographic movies, this book presents stories of secret messaging that chart its evolution in sophistication and its impact on history.

The Complete Guide to AI in Education is a comprehensive resource for anyone interested in the transformative role of artificial intelligence in learning. Whether you're an educator, school administrator, student, or parent, this guide provides the knowledge and tools needed to navigate and leverage AI effectively in education. AI is reshaping education, offering powerful solutions to personalize learning, automate administrative tasks, and foster creativity. Yet it also brings challenges: concerns about academic integrity, learning gaps, and equitable access.

Why did the US intelligence services fail so spectacularly to know about the Soviet Union's nuclear capabilities following World War II? As Vince Houghton, historian and curator of the International Spy Museum in Washington, DC, shows us, that disastrous failure came just a few years after the Manhattan Project's intelligence team had penetrated the Third Reich and knew every detail of the Nazi's plan for an atomic bomb. What changed and what went wrong?

La búsqueda constante e insaciable por la “felicidad” en el ser humano tiene un devastador sesgo funcional evidente: pocos nos cuestionamos qué es aquello que tanto deseamos y por qué.

This important book offers a practical guide to understanding how Howard Gardner's theory of Multiple Intelligences (MI) can be used in the classroom. Gardner identified eight different types of intelligence: linguistic, logical, spatial, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, naturalist, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. Celebrating Every Learner describes the characteristics of each type of intelligence and follows up with ready-to-use lesson plans and activities that teachers can use to incorporate MI in their pre-K through six classrooms.

You have just bumped into a great deal with a unique combo of two different books, which cover topics on critical thinking, rationality, and using intelligence as a moral compass.This is one of the best books about these particular sub-topics.

En una era donde la inteligencia artificial está transformando rápidamente nuestra sociedad, comprender sus implicaciones éticas se ha vuelto fundamental. Este libro, fruto de una colaboración innovadora entre un autor humano y una IA, ofrece una perspectiva única y completa sobre los desafíos éticos que enfrentamos. Esta obra representa una contribución única al campo, combinando el criterio humano con los insights de una IA para ofrecer una perspectiva equilibrada y comprehensiva sobre uno de los desafíos más importantes de nuestro tiempo.

Imagine a book of strategies so dangerous that a Chinese emperor of the past banned all mention of these strategies from the history books because they describe some of the most cunning and most devious strategies ever devised by man, and that it could possibly morally corrupt all who read them. A book of ancient wisdom, centuries old, only known by a few elite in a hidden society. A book of proverbs that describe not only battlefield strategies, but also tactics used in psychological warfare to undermine an opponent's ability and will to fight.

We are about to enter a new era when the combination of human and artificial intelligence will bring about a paradigm with a potential unseen before. This book is an invitation to delve into the labyrinth of the mind, to challenge preconceived notions, and to embrace the mysticism of awareness in all of its forms.

Education is evolving faster than ever. Artificial intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the classroom, but are we using it to truly enhance learning—or are we risking the loss of critical human connections and authentic education? Teachers, administrators, and policymakers stand at a crossroads. The way we integrate AI today will determine the future of meaningful, student-centered learning.

"Songez à tout ce qu'il faudrait savoir pour expliquer à Descartes ou à Napoléon ressuscités notre système actuel d'existence, pour lui faire comprendre comment nous pouvons arriver à vivre dans des conditions si étranges, dans un milieu qu'il trouverait certainement assez effrayant, et même hostile. Cet embarras est la mesure du changement intervenu." Paul Valéry écrivit en effet ce texte dans une époque qui vivait de grands changements, au sein d'une société bouleversée par la guerre.

This Audiobook is not a blueprint for the future, but a philosophical exploration of the crisis of the present. It argues that capitalism, once animated by the promise of profit and endless growth, is now eroding from within. Profit has lost its legitimacy, work its meaning, and growth its aura of inevitability. Meanwhile, the historical alternatives—socialism, communism, anarchism—have been exhausted or discredited, leaving us in a void where the old is collapsing but the new has not yet emerged.
