Synopsis

Artificial Beings explores the fascinating relationship between artificial intelligence as depicted in science fiction and the realities of scientific research. It examines how AI narratives in literature, film, and television both reflect and influence our understanding of AI's potential, ethical considerations, and the very definition of what it means to be human. One intriguing insight is how fictional portrayals act as a crucial testing ground for exploring the possible consequences, both positive and negative, of increasingly sophisticated AI, shaping public perception and research priorities. The book also delves into the semantic challenges inherent in defining and understanding artificial intelligence, addressing the ambiguities that arise when creating machines in our image. The book uniquely treats fiction not as mere entertainment but as a valuable source of insight into the societal and ethical implications of AI and robotics. The approach emphasizes the interplay between cultural consciousness and scientific advancement. Starting with the historical roots of AI in both science and fiction, it traces milestones in AI research alongside recurring themes in fictional works. Subsequent chapters focus on the challenges of imbuing AI with human-like qualities and the ethical implications of advanced AI, drawing parallels between fictional scenarios and real-world concerns like algorithmic bias and autonomous weapons. This comprehensive overview equips readers with critical thinking skills to navigate the complex world of AI.

Economic Business and Artificial...

Steve Dafoe

Recently, I learned about General Artificial Intelligence and the implications it will have in our lives. The array of opinions crosses the full spectrum from the wonderful ways it will improve our lives to the fear it could unleash a ‘Self-Controlled Superintelligence’ that may not align itself with human social and ethical constructs. This subject is fast moving rocket and it is important that everyone understands some key terms when it comes to Artificial Intelligence. Whether you know it or not, AI touches your lives today and in future, will increase exponentially as it exerts this massive influence in our lives. 
In addition, being a student of Economics and Business, I always seek to refresh my knowledge of key terms in these areas. Economics, Business and Politics overlap a great deal in academia and in real-world applications. Artificial Intelligence will add for the better bringing the fields of Business, Politics and Economics together for the betterment of society. 
Contained within is a small list of common terms in the areas of Economics, Business and Artificial Intelligence. Political terms are not included here but you will read some definitions of Economics that do have an overlap of political inferences. 
I hope these terms and definitions provide some insight into the world of economics, business, and artificial intelligence. They all affect your lives more than you realize.

The Appalachian Bigfoot

Dr. Russell Jones

Building off his book, Tracking the Stone Man: West Virginia's Bigfoot, Dr. Russell Jones, a certified master naturalist, lifelong outdoorsman, and longtime Bigfoot researcher, has put together one of the most complete examinations of these creatures in Appalachia with The Appalachian Bigfoot. 
 
 
 
From his own field research and hours of interviews with some of the top and most active Bigfoot researchers across Appalachia, Dr. Jones, used a scientific approach of the data collected to help shed greater light on the mystery of the Appalachian Bigfoot and give insight into the existence of these elusive creatures.

Escaping the Housing Trap - The...

Jr. Charles L. Marohn, Daniel...

In Escaping the Housing Trap: The Strong Towns Solution to the Housing Crisis, renowned urbanists Charles (Chuck) Marohn and Daniel Herriges introduce a first-of-its-kind discussion of the tension between housing as a financial product and housing as shelter. This is the key insight that's been missing from the Housing Crisis Conversation; and the insight that can help cities fight back against the crisis from the bottom-up. 
 
 
 
This book offers a serious, yet accessible, history of housing policy in the United States and explains how it led us to this point in time: where we face a market that is rigged against people who, only a few decades ago, could have been homeowners or stable, long-term rentals. 
 
 
 
Escaping the Housing Trap is the must-have resource for everyone with a stake in the future of housing in America—and that means everyone. Listeners will find discussions of housing as an investment and how the country's neighborhoods are being transformed by the introduction of large amounts of investment; explorations of housing as shelter, including discussions of zoning policy and NIMBYism; and a comprehensive overview of the Strong Towns approach to solving the American housing crisis.
