Machine Intelligence

AI for Marketing and Product Innovation offers creatives and marketing professionals a non-tech guide to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) - twin technologies that stand poised to revolutionize the way we sell. This book helps you lean into the curve and take advantage of AI's unparalleled and rapidly expanding power. More than a simple primer on the technology, this book goes beyond the "what" to reveal the "how".

The difference between growing your business and going out of business is your ability to think strategically. The problem is, most leaders are stuck in the operational weeds, struggling to find the time to make better strategic decisions. This challenge is only heightened by the rise of AI. While you know AI is the future, current demands leave you with no time to explore its benefits. Meanwhile, your competition is gaining an edge by integrating AI. The time to act is now.

Artist, technologist, and philosopher James Bridle’s Ways of Being is a brilliant, searching exploration of different kinds of intelligence—plant, animal, human, artificial—and how they transform our understanding of humans’ place in the cosmos. What does it mean to be intelligent? Is it something unique to humans, or shared with other beings—beings of flesh, wood, stone, and silicon? The last few years have seen rapid advances in “artificial” intelligence.

"You look like a thing and I love you" is one of the best pickup lines ever...according to an artificial intelligence trained by scientist Janelle Shane, creator of the popular blog AI Weirdness. She creates silly AIs that learn how to name paint colors, create the best recipes, and even flirt (badly) with humans — all to understand the technology that governs so much of our daily lives.

Today's "machine-learning" systems, trained by data, are so effective that we've invited them to see and hear for us - and to make decisions on our behalf. But alarm bells are ringing. Systems cull résumés until, years later, we discover that they have inherent gender biases. Algorithms decide bail and parole - and appear to assess black and white defendants differently. We can no longer assume that our mortgage application, or even our medical tests, will be seen by human eyes. And autonomous vehicles on our streets can injure or kill.

Is artificial intelligence going to take over the world? Have big tech scientists created an artificial lifeform that can think on its own? Is it going to put authors, artists, and others out of business? Are we about to enter an age where computers are better than humans at everything? The answer to these questions, linguist Emily M. Bender and sociologist Alex Hanna make clear, is “no,” “they wish,” “LOL,” and “definitely not.” This kind of thinking is a symptom of a phenomenon known as “AI hype.”

In their bestselling first book, Prediction Machines, eminent economists Ajay Agrawal, Joshua Gans, and Avi Goldfarb explained the simple yet game-changing economics of AI. Now, in Power and Prediction, they go deeper, examining the most basic unit of analysis: the decision. The authors explain that the two key decision-making ingredients are prediction and judgment, and we perform both together in our minds, often without realizing it.

Voilà bientôt deux ans que le monde entier vit avec l’IA générative. Cette technologie est entrée dans nos vies fin 2022 avec le phénomène ChatGPT, ce robot conversationnel qui répond à toutes nos questions ou presque en quelques secondes. Sa facilité d’utilisation, ses attributs quasi humains et la qualité de ses réponses ont surpris la planète entière. Depuis, l’IA est partout : à la une des médias, dans les entreprises et dans les discours politiques. Même le Vatican a dû élaborer une ligne de conduite sur le sujet.

Les enjeux et les impacts des dernières générations d'intelligence artificielle décryptés par un spécialiste mondial de l'IA. ChatGPT vous enthousiasme et vous effraie tout à la fois ? À entendre ses promoteurs, les capacités de l'intelligence artificielle seraient dès aujourd'hui sans limite. Luc Julia nous emmène dans un voyage au centre de l'IA, de son histoire et de son potentiel. Il déconstruit les idées reçues les plus répandues, à commencer par celle selon laquelle les IA génératives seraient créatives.

Generative AI for Beginners Simplified is your ultimate gateway into the exciting world of artificial intelligence and machine learning. This comprehensive guide is specially designed for beginners, breaking down complex concepts into easy-to-understand lessons, practical exercises, and real-world projects.

In 2023, hundreds of machine-learning scientists signed an open letter warning about our risk of extinction from smarter-than-human AI. Yet today, the race to develop superhuman AI is only accelerating, as many tech CEOs throw caution to the wind, aggressively scaling up systems they don't understand—and won’t be able to restrain. There is a good chance that they will succeed in building an artificial superintelligence on a timescale of years or decades. And no one is prepared for what will happen next.

Teaching in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: From Robots to Rocket Science. This book explores how artificial intelligence is changing education — from traditional classrooms to smart, personalized learning environments.

Geared toward business leaders and tech professionals alike, this book demystifies the strategic integration of AI into business practices, ensuring you're equipped not just to participate but to lead in this new landscape.

Artificial intelligence is smarter than humans. It can process information at lightning speed and remain focused on specific tasks without distraction. AI can see into the future, predicting outcomes and even use sensors to see around physical and virtual corners. So why does Intelligence frequently get it so wrong? The answer is us. Humans design the algorithms that define the way that AI works and the processed information reflects an imperfect world.

The world of technology is changing all the time. A product that is innovative and brand-new today can be old news tomorrow as we are in a constant state of looking for the newest and most innovative things that we can use. And when it comes to helping us stay on top of this technology, artificial intelligence is leading the pack. This audiobook will provide you all the information you need to understand and learn how artificial intelligence is being used in our modern world.

Machine learning systems are both complex and unique. Complex because they consist of many different components and involve many different stakeholders. Unique because they're data dependent, with data varying wildly from one use case to the next. In this book, you'll learn a holistic approach to designing ML systems that are reliable, scalable, maintainable, and adaptive to changing environments and business requirements. Author Chip Huyen, cofounder of Claypot AI, considers each design decision in the context of how it can help your system as a whole achieve its objectives.

For over three decades, Ray Kurzweil has been one of the most respected and provocative advocates of the role of technology in our future. In his classic The Age of Spiritual Machines, he argued that computers would soon rival the full range of human intelligence at its best. Now he examines the next step in this inexorable evolutionary process: The union of human and machine, in which the knowledge and skills embedded in our brains will be combined with the vastly greater capacity, speed, and knowledge-sharing ability of our creations.
