《圓覺經》全名《大方廣圓覺修多羅了義經》，透過文殊師利等十二位菩薩與佛陀的問答，宣說如來圓覺妙理，揭櫫一切眾生具足圓覺妙心，是指引如何修行成佛的經典。《圓覺經》廣受唐代天台、華嚴、禪宗、密宗重視，北宋郭印提出佛教四書，清末吳坤修甄選釋氏十三經，它從未缺席，又早早流布高麗與鎌倉時代的朝鮮、日本。該經一卷之薄，允為東亞漢傳佛教「經中之睛」。是次新注新譯，深度利用東亞文獻以校勘、輯佚，紹述唐僧玄奘忠於原典及思想、語言原貌之傳統，從佛學乃至文學角度，予以精當闡釋，化深奧為易懂，內容至簡至要。〈導讀〉一文更明析該經結構、善本、善注、文體，乃至東亞古典時代地位諸議題。研讀佛教經典者，切莫錯過。The Sūtra of Perfect Englightenment 圓覺經, whose full title is The Nītârtha Sūtra on the canon of the great and expansive Perfect Enlightenment (Dà fāngguăng yuánjué xiūduōluó liǎoyì jīng) 大方廣圓覺修多羅了義經, uses a conversation between the Buddha and twelve Bodhisattvas, led by Mañjuśrī, to promulgate the wondrous doctrine of perfect enlightenment. It discloses that all sentient beings have an innate mind of perfect enlightenment, and guides them on how to train to attain Buddhahood. In the Tang dynasty, the Sūtra of Perfect Enlightenment was held in high esteem by the Tiantai, Huayan, Chan, and Vajrayāna (Esoteric) schools.

The rules for finding professional work once seemed clear and unwavering: capture career highlights in a resume, practice answers to standard interview questions, and do lots of face-to-face networking. Cracking the New Job Market shows how these rules have changed and delivers new job-hunting strategies that actually work. The key, rather than to emphasize past accomplishments, is to sell your self on the value you can create for an employer. This new approach to getting hired requires new skills. Author R. Willam Holland, a human resources insider, shows job seekers how to: * Gather information on what a prospective employer finds important * Emphasize those skills, accom plish ments, and qualities in tailored resumes and interview answers * Identify the intersection between personal talents and what the marketplace needs * Unlock the networking power of social media * Negotiate the best possible offer Enlightening and practical, this myth-busting book delivers seven powerful rules f

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. In The Thinking Machine, acclaimed journalist Stephen Witt recounts the unlikely story of how a manufacturer of video game components shocked Silicon Valley by establishing a monopoly on AI hardware, and in the process re-invented the computer. Essential to Nvidia’s meteoric success is its visionary CEO Jensen Huang, who more than a decade ago, on the basis of a few promising scientific results, bet his entire company on AI. Through unprecedented access to Huang, his friends, his investors, and his employees, Witt documents for the first time the company’s epic rise and its ic

《物聯網ABC》一書以臺大電機系「物聯網導論」課程與實作教材為基礎，同時結合人工智慧（AI）、大數據（Big Data）及雲端運算（Cloud Computing）等資通訊技術，歷經三年試教與反覆修正後編撰而成。本書參照「網宇實體系統」（Cyber-Physical System，簡稱CPS）架構，涵蓋其中的感測控制（Connected Things）、網路傳輸（Conversion）、虛實統合（

近年來人工智慧(AI) 應用無所不在，帶動大數據分析、雲端運算服務及物聯網(IoT)的科技升級，快速滲透到金融、零售、醫療、交通、保全、娛樂及製造等各式各樣產業。但是，迎接AI時代來臨，具備完善的大數據分析、雲端服務及資料運算平台，似乎不足以展現在AI領域的最大綜效，另一項融合新科技的創新能量「邊緣運算(edge computing)」已經悄悄在近年來蔓延發燒。隨著硬體功耗的增加及成本下降，物聯網的整合，它創造的大數據及透過AI理解的能力，嶄新時代必將來臨。

「人工智慧 (Artificial Intelligence, AI) 」 一詞，最早可追溯至20世紀中英國數學家艾倫．圖靈發表的論文Computing Machinery and Intelligence。隨著時間推移，硬體與軟體技術的迅速進步讓電腦運算速度大幅提升、成本顯著下降，並且配合演算法領域的卓越研究成果，人工智慧領域不再是遙不可及的夢想。21世紀初，AlphaGo達到可以對決頂尖圍棋高手的程度，到了2022年，OpenAI正式推出ChatGPT，更讓人工智慧真正普及到大眾生活。生成式AI在各行各業專業領域中帶來重大變革，本書能幫助您突破生成式AI的工具性操作，深入了解其背後的技術、應用與影響力。全書共有七個章節，內容涵蓋生成式AI的底層邏輯、實務操作、企業管理策略等三個面向。第一到三章聚焦於生成式AI的底層邏輯，會依序介紹AI先備知識、經典模型以及生成式AI 核心架構：Transformer，即便您沒有資訊背景也能夠讀懂。第四到六章聚焦於生成式AI的實務操作，介紹提示工程(Prompt Engineering)，教您如何讓生成式AI產出高品質的回應，並手把手地帶您使用ChatGPT API 實作兩個小專案：檢索增強生成(RAG)以及網站智能客服。第七章聚焦於生成式AI的企業管理策略，針對企業最迫切關注的議題：如何導入生成式AI，提出淺見與看法。
