Summary

"Neural Networks Explained" offers a comprehensive yet accessible exploration of artificial intelligence's fundamental building blocks, making complex concepts approachable for readers without technical expertise. The book uniquely bridges the gap between advanced AI technology and everyday understanding by drawing compelling parallels between biological brains and artificial neural networks, helping readers grasp how these systems learn and make decisions.The journey begins with core concepts of neural networks, including neurons, layers, and connections, before progressing through their historical evolution and modern applications. Rather than relying on complex mathematical formulas, the book employs vivid analogies and real-world examples, such as how neural networks power smartphone facial recognition or distinguish between images of cats and dogs. This practical approach makes technical concepts tangible for business professionals, students, and curious individuals alike.Through a combination of case studies, expert interviews, and documented examples, the book examines neural networks' impact across various industries, from healthcare diagnostics to autonomous vehicles. It thoughtfully addresses contemporary debates surrounding AI ethics and bias while maintaining scientific accuracy. The interdisciplinary perspective, connecting computer science with neuroscience and psychology, provides readers with a holistic understanding of both the technology's capabilities and its broader implications for society, making it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to navigate our increasingly AI-driven world.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is a powerful general-purpose technology that is reshaping the modern economy, but misperceptions about AI stand in the way of harnessing it for the betterment of humanity. In Thrive, Ravi Bapna and Anindya Ghose counter the backlash by showcasing how AI is positively influencing the aspects of our daily lives that we care about most: our health and wellness, relationships, education, the workplace, and domestic life. In the process the authors help explain the underlying technology and give people the agency they need to shape the debate around how we should regulate AI to maximize its benefits and minimize its risks. 
     
     
     
    Bringing over two decades of experience with cutting-edge research, consulting, executive coaching, and advising to bear on the subject, Bapna and Ghose demystify the technology of AI itself. They offer a novel "House of AI" framework that encompasses traditional analytics, generative AI, and fair and ethical deployment of AI. Using examples from everyday life, they showcase how the modern AI-powered ecosystem fundamentally improves the emotional, physical, and material well-being of regular people across the globe. Thrive's mission is to educate the public about AI, shape realistic expectations, and foster informed discussions about a fast-emerging AI-shaped society.

    Fatal Abstraction - Why the...

    Software was supposed to radically improve society. Outdated mechanical systems would be easily replaced; social media platforms like Facebook would bring people together; and generative AI would solve the world’s greatest ills. Yet in practice, few of the systems we looked to with such high hopes have lived up to their fundamental mandate. In fact, in too many cases they've made things worse. How did we get to this point? 
     
     
     
    In Fatal Abstraction, Darryl Campbell explains that the problem is "managerial software": programs created and overseen not by engineers but by professional managers with only the most superficial knowledge of technology itself. 
     
     
     
    A former tech worker himself, Campbell shows how managerial software fails, and when it does what sorts of disastrous consequences ensue, from the Boeing 737 MAX crashes to a deadly self-driving car to PowerPoint propaganda, and beyond. Yet just because the tech industry is currently breaking its core promise does not mean the industry cannot change. Campbell argues that the solution is tech workers with actual expertise establishing industry-wide principles of ethics and safety that corporations would be forced to follow. Fatal Abstraction is a stirring rebuke of the tech industry's current managerial excesses, and also a hopeful glimpse of what a world shaped by good software can offer.

    I Have This Thing for Flowers -...

    A story of love, marriage, and flowers from beloved writer and gardening enthusiast Alysia Li Ying Sawchyn Six months before her wedding, Alysia Li Ying Sawchyn’s fiancé broke off their engagement. Stunned, reeling, and newly uninsured, Alysia married her friend Sarah in an arrangement that secured them both free health insurance. They moved in together in the midst of the pandemic, and with time and while tending a garden, their marriage of convenience grew into a marriage of love.  In science, art, and mythology, we cannot help but to see flowers as metaphors for the fleeting nature of youth, vitality, and love. It’s easy to casually admire something beautiful, but it takes a discerning eye to appreciate the effort that went into nourishing and tending to that beauty. In both gardening and relationships, one cannot expect to fill your garden with flowers if you are unwilling—or unable—to put in the work they need to thrive. In I Have This Thing For Flowers, Sawchyn does just that, likening the many flowers she has grown in her gardens to a range of relationships and moments of her life, reflecting on topics from motherhood to perfumery to scientific illustration. Cataloguing many of the great romances and loves of her life like an herbarium of flowers preserved from the garden, Sawchyn examines the kinds of love that can't be explained.A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books
