  The Sentient Machine - The...

  “A must-read for anyone looking to understand how artificial intelligence is poised to transform human society and life.” —Paul Scharre, Author of Four Battlegrounds: Power in the Age of Artificial IntelligenceThe future is now. Acclaimed technologist and inventor Amir Husain explains how we can live amidst the coming age of sentient machines and artificial intelligence—and not only survive, but thrive.Artificial “machine” intelligence is playing an ever-greater role in our society. We are already using cruise control in our cars, automatic checkout at the drugstore, and are unable to live without our smartphones. The discussion around AI is polarized; people think either machines will solve all problems for everyone, or they will lead us down a dark, dystopian path into total human irrelevance. Regardless of what you believe, the idea that we might bring forth intelligent creation can be intrinsically frightening. But what if our greatest role as humans so far is that of creators?Amir Husain, a brilliant inventor and computer scientist, argues that we are on the cusp of writing our next, and greatest, creation myth. It is the dawn of a new form of intellectual diversity, one that we need to embrace in order to advance the state of the art in many critical fields, including security, resource management, finance, and energy. “In The Sentient Machine, Husain prepares us for a brighter future; not with hyperbole about right and wrong, but with serious arguments about risk and potential” (Dr. Greg Hyslop, Chief Technology Officer, The Boeing Company). He addresses broad existential questions surrounding the coming of AI: Why are we valuable? What can we create in this world? How are we intelligent? What constitutes progress for us? And how might we fail to progress? Husain boils down complex computer science and AI concepts into clear, plainspoken language and draws from a wide variety of cultural and historical references to illustrate his points. Ultimately, Husain challenges many of our societal norms and upends assumptions we hold about “the good life.”

  VERNE CODE THE - The Secret of...

  Jesús Cediel

  It happened more than 450,000 years ago. Beings from outer space came to planet Earth in search of resources: fuel for a distant planet.It all began in Sumer, in ancient Mesopotamia. You may think this is an outlandish story by someone who has not slept for some days, but everything you will read is well documented in the most ancient writings known to mankind: the Enuma Elish, Atrahasis, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and many more.These writings, made in cuneiform on clay, have served as a source of inspiration for books of such importance as Genesis and Exodus in the Bible… although over time, the true knowledge has been mutated or mutilated for ideological or religious reasons. 
  Over many years of research, Cediel has been able to verify that the facts are clear and undeniable…it just happens that they are so difficult to believe that science prefers not to accept them, because they do not conform to the historical paradigm.Finally, after years of research, and motivated by a shamanic experience, he has decided to committed his ideas to print: The Verne Code is the result.The Verne Code speaks of penicillin before Fleming, air travel before the first modern plane, of ancient maps of great precision charting places only discovered in the 20th century, of the human genome before Craig Venter, of cloning before Dolly the sheep, of nuclear explosions before Hiroshima and Nagasaki, about the quest for immortality before Geron Corporation; a treasure trove of ancient secrets waiting to be discovered. 
  Cediel shows evidence of the extraterrestrial origin of humankind. The Verne Code is an exciting journey from the knowledge that existed in the most remote antiquity, to the frontiers of current scientific knowledge. The result is an anthropogenesis, a cosmogenesis, a theory of aging and a breakthrough theory on Atlantis. Cediel also explains the importance of the Sun and anticipates the spiritual paradigm that will rule in the astrological age of Aquarius-Leo.

  Mismatch - How Inclusion Shapes...

  Kate Holmes

  Sometimes designed objects reject their users: a computer mouse that doesn't work for left-handed people, for example, or a touchscreen payment system that only works for people who read English phrases, have 20/20 vision, and use a credit card. These mismatches are the building blocks of exclusion. In Mismatch, Kat Holmes describes how design can lead to exclusion, and how design can also remedy exclusion.Holmes tells stories of pioneers of inclusive design, many of whom were drawn to work on inclusion because of their own experiences of exclusion. A gamer and designer who depends on voice recognition shows Holmes his "Wall of Exclusion", which displays dozens of game controllers that require two hands to operate; an architect shares her firsthand knowledge of how design can fail communities; an astronomer who began to lose her eyesight adapts a technique called "sonification" so she can "listen" to the stars.Designing for inclusion is not a feel-good sideline. Holmes shows how inclusion can be a source of innovation and growth, especially for digital technologies. It can be a catalyst for creativity and a boost for the bottom line as a customer base expands. And each time we remedy a mismatched interaction, we create an opportunity for more people to contribute to society in meaningful ways.Foreword by John Maeda
