    A robust and engaging account of the single greatest threat faced by AI and ML systems. 
 
 
 
In Not with a Bug, But with a Sticker: Attacks on Machine Learning Systems and What to Do About Them, a team of distinguished adversarial machine learning researchers deliver a riveting account of the most significant risk to currently deployed artificial intelligence systems: cybersecurity threats. The authors take you on a sweeping tour—from inside secretive government organizations to academic workshops at ski chalets to Google's cafeteria—recounting how major AI systems remain vulnerable to the exploits of bad actors of all stripes. 
 
 
 
Based on hundreds of interviews of academic researchers, policy makers, business leaders and national security experts, the authors compile the complex science of attacking AI systems with color and flourish and provide a front row seat to those who championed this change. Grounded in real world examples of previous attacks, you will learn how adversaries can upend the reliability of otherwise robust AI systems with straightforward exploits.

    A.I. or - Thinking outside the box!  Mind Control is the first Owner's Manual that will help usher in a new species of human being, a species who will respect their home planet and put it first above all other priorities.  I call him 'Homo Planetae' or Man of the Planet.  Homo Sapiens or the Wise Man is no longer viable since it is this species that has brought us to the edge of extinction and the total destruction of this planet's habitat - something no other creature in history has been so careless and greedy to do.  We did that.  An evolutionary branching off of an obsolete species and onto a new more advanced creature is now taking place right before our eyes, but 'None are so blind as those who will not see.' 
Through your increased abilities of using your mind or 'Mind Control' as this author defines it - we still have a chance to redeem ourselves and save this planet.  But time is of the essence and is rapidly running out.  The ways in which we are mind controlled by our government and our corporations, our religions are profound yet so subtle we don't even think about it until it's too late.

    An exuberant, incisive look at how Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater transformed a culture
		 
Going from a hobby toy for surfers to an Olympic sport, skateboarding has had a tumultuous history. Today, professional skateboarders land endorsement deals with Nike and Adidas, while popular television series like HBO’s Betty tell the stories of diverse crews of skaters living in New York City. So how did a fledgling subculture rise from its near-death knell in the ’90s to become ubiquitous today? It was simply a matter of finding the right messenger.
		 
In 1999, the bestselling video game Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater was released, and a new generation was exposed to skateboarding culture right in their very own homes. Kids and adults alike could now spend hours playing as actual skateboarders, learning the vernacular, listening to the music skateboarders loved, and having fun onscreen before trying to skate IRL in the driveway.
		 
Right, Down + Circle explores how a video game starring the most famous pro skater in the world brought skateboarding culture — and its ever-shifting markers of music, subversion, and coolness — to the masses and ultimately transformed the culture it borrowed from in the process.
