  Literary Theory for Robots reveals the hidden history of modern machine intelligence, taking listeners on a spellbinding journey from medieval Arabic philosophy to visions of a universal language, past Hollywood fiction factories, and missile defense systems trained on Russian folktales. In this provocative reflection on the shared pasts of literature and computer science, former Microsoft engineer and professor of comparative literature Dennis Yi Tenen provides crucial context for recent developments in AI, which holds important lessons for the future of humans living with smart technology. 
   
   
   
  Intelligence expressed through technology should not be mistaken for a magical genie, capable of self-directed thought or action. Rather, in highly original and effervescent prose with a generous dose of wit, Yi Tenen asks us to read past the artifice—to better perceive the mechanics of collaborative work. Something as simple as a spell-checker or a grammar-correction tool, embedded in every word-processor, represents the culmination of a shared human effort, spanning centuries. 
   
   
   
  With its masterful blend of history, technology, and philosophy, Yi Tenen's work ultimately urges us to view AI as a matter of labor history, celebrating the long-standing cooperation between authors and engineers.

  Every child is born with a spark—a unique gift waiting to shine. As parents, we often marvel at the small things our children do. A scribble that tells a story, a question that shows deep curiosity, a dance that seems to come from the heart—these moments are more than just childhood innocence. They are glimpses of the gem within. 
  But how often do we pause to truly observe? In the rush of daily life, it’s easy to miss the subtle signals that hint at a child’s hidden talents. What if, with a little patience and a lot of love, we could unearth those treasures and help our children thrive in ways we never imagined? 
  This book is not about turning children into prodigies or pressuring them to succeed. It’s about discovery—finding the joy in helping your child explore their passions, strengths, and unique potential. It’s about listening to the unspoken language of their play, their choices, and their dreams. 
  "Finding the Gem" is your guide to this journey. Through practical techniques, inspiring stories, and thoughtful insights, you’ll learn how to observe, nurture, and support your child in ways that let their natural abilities shine. This is not a roadmap to perfection; it’s an invitation to partner with your child on their journey of growth and self-discovery. 
  Every gem is unique, and so is every child. Let’s begin the adventure of finding and polishing the gem within your child, so they can sparkle in a way that is truly their own.
