    The Myth of Artificial...

    Futurists insist that AI will soon eclipse the capacities of the most gifted human mind. What hope do we have against superintelligent machines? But we aren't really on the path to developing intelligent machines. In fact, we don't even know where that path might be.Erik Larson takes us on a tour of the landscape of AI to show how far we are from superintelligence, and what it would take to get there. Ever since Alan Turing, AI enthusiasts have equated artificial intelligence with human intelligence. This is a profound mistake. AI works on inductive reasoning, crunching data sets to predict outcomes. But humans don't correlate data sets: we make conjectures informed by context and experience. Human intelligence is a web of best guesses, given what we know about the world. We haven't a clue how to program this kind of intuitive reasoning, known as abduction. Yet it is the heart of common sense. That's why Alexa can't understand what you are asking, and why AI can only take us so far.Larson argues that AI hype is both bad science and bad for science. A culture of invention thrives on exploring unknowns, not overselling existing methods. Inductive AI will continue to improve at narrow tasks, but if we want to make real progress, we will need to start by more fully appreciating the only true intelligence we know—our own.

    All the Mexican slang you'll ever need!! 
    I have been teaching Mexican Spanish online for over three years, and while talking to my students, I noticed how interested they were in learning Mexican slang. 
    They always asked me about it, and it also fascinated me. I realized that slang didn’t follow any rules and was constantly changing daily. 
    I created a blog where I started posting entries for my students to explain better how to use informal Mexican Spanish. 
    These blog posts have evolved into this book. 
    Here, I gather the most important phrases and words of Mexislang and explain their history and usage, including examples. 
    You will find this manual helpful if:You want to learn Spanish from Mexico;You are going to travel to Mexico;You want to understand Mexican culture better;You like learning new languages;You want to communicate better with Mexican people;You want to know the most recent Mexican slang (and internet slang) from 2022;You want to learn slang from an authentic Mexican tutor who has taught Spanish to people worldwide and has lived in Mexico for over 30 years. 
    Mexico is the 8th most visited country in the world and #1 in Latin America, so this is a book that anyone who wants to make bonds, communicate, and establish good relationships with Mexican people can use.Start talking like a Mexican, Get Mexislang now!!
