Artificial Intelligence is all about humans asking computers and other machines to think and even behave like humans, and to take on jobs that people find too difficult or too boring. But how do you actually define the term? What exactly can machines with AI already do, and what might they be able to do in the future?AI For Beginners answers all the questions - where answers exist - and raises debating points at every turn about what it all means. Should we be asking machines to do creative tasks, such as writing and illustrating books? Do we need to worry if intelligent machines need to be treated like people? Is there a chance that machines might take over the world, either by accident or on purpose? Is there any point going to school and doing homework if computers can do it all for us, and better?

On the advanced knowledge economy, which perpetuates patterns of discrimination and exclusion, and the threat of climate change devastation for both human and nonhuman entities.Robots designed to care for people and neglected landscapes of digital trash. The promise of synthetic biology and the panic of living on a dying planet. Wonderful feats of intelligence and systemic acts of violence. Exhilaration and exhaustion. Rosi Braidotti argues that we must think about these apparent contradictions all together in order to make differences that actually matter.Posthuman Knowledge and the Critical Posthumanitiesoscillates between evocations and transections of contemporary conditions, for which Braidotti offers what she calls the “posthuman convergence” as a new paradigm for situating and navigating their problems and possibilities. Reflecting on the knotted situation of the academic humanities, cognitive capitalism, and advanced climate change, she delivers an intersectional critique of hu

The riveting investigative account of Nvidia, the tech company that has exploded in value for its artificial intelligence computing hardware, and Jensen Huang, Nvidia’s charismatic, uncompromising CEO In March 2024, following the revelation that ChatGPT had trained on Nvidia’s microchips, and twenty-one years after its founding in a Denny’s restaurant, Nvidia became the third most-valuable corporation on Earth.

A sweeping history of and meditation on humanity's relationship with machines, showing how we got here and what happens nextFaith in technological fixes for our problems is waning. Automation, which promised relief from toil, has reactivated the long-standing fear of job redundancy. Information technology, meant to liberate us from traditional authority, is placing unprecedented powers of surveillance and control in the hands of a purely secular Big Brother.And for the first time, artificial intelligence threatens anthropogenic disaster – disaster caused by our own activities.

This book tells the story of our fractured relationship with machines from humanity’s first tools down to the present and into the future.It raises the crucial question of why some parts of the world developed a ‘machine civilisation’ and not others, and traces the interactions between

★ 探討「生物設計×人工智慧」如何重塑建築與城市未來★ 從都市微生物到地質尺度，拓展設計的時間與空間想像★ 結合實務案例與學術研究，提出設計作為「共生系統」的全新觀點在人工智慧與氣候危機交織的當代，設計的角色正快速轉變。本書《Biodesign in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Deep Green》由創新設計團隊 ecoLogicStudio 主導，延續其前作《Systemic Architecture》，進一步提出「設計智慧」不僅屬於數位領域，也深植於生物系統之中。全書分為兩大部分：第一部分「PhotoSynthetica™」聚焦於都市尺度的應用，透過介入城市微生物生態系，發展能即時回應環境的設計方案；第二部分「Deep Green」則將視野擴展至更宏觀的時空尺度，探索合成地景與長時間演化過程，將設計視為一種影響地理與地質的力量。作者結合於 University of Innsbruck 與 UCL Bartlett School of Architecture 的研究成果，提出設計應被理解為一種延伸的認知介面——一個具有感知能力、能與地球生命系統共演化的存在。在無法簡單「逆轉」氣候變遷的現實下，本書主張我們應建立新的正向變化動能，讓建築與設計成為維繫地球美感與生命力的重要角色。這不僅是一本關於未來設計的書，更是一份重新思考人類、科技與自然關係的深刻提案。Biodesign in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Deep Green investigates the potential of nature-based technology for shaping the evolution of contemporary architecture and design.

Three of the world's most accomplished and deep thinkers come together to explore Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the way it is transforming human society--and what this technology means for us all.An AI learned to win chess by making moves human grand masters had never conceived. Another AI discovered a new antibiotic by analyzing molecular properties human scientists did not understand. Now, AI-powered jets are defeating experienced human pilots in simulated dogfights. AI is coming online in searching, streaming, medicine, education, and many other fields and, in so doing, transforming how humans are experiencing reality. In The Age of AI, three leading thinkers have come together to consider how AI will change our relationships with knowledge, politics, and the societies in which we live. The Age of AI is an essential roadmap to our present and our future, an era unlike any that has come before. A "Top Ten Tech Books Of 2021" (Forbes) Wall Street Journal bestseller One of Newsweek'
