Kobuk the Destroyer - And Other...

Alex Davies

A rollicking exploration of why the stuff we use (mostly) works—and a celebration of the mad genius of the engineers who ensure it does. 
When a manufacturer wants to certify a product as “bear-resistant” —a cooler, a trash can, a camping food canister—they turn to the Interagency Grizzly Bear Committee and its resident panel of product-testing bears. Over the years, one bear has become infamous for his penchant for cracking locking mechanisms and crushing manufacturer dreams, but thereby helping to keep our food—and us—safe: Kobuk the Destroyer. 
 
From “childproof” bottle caps to the cars and planes we ride, such stories underlie the products we use every day and can generally trust to do what they say and not (unexpectedly) dump us out of the sky or blow up. As Alex Davies reveals, this amazing reliability is thanks to the mostly invisible, maniacal, yet methodical work of test engineers, who divine how everything and anything could go wrong and plan for it in advance—using rocket sleds, chicken cannons, and any means necessary. Uncovering the surprisingly profound science behind the fine print on the label, Kobuk the Destroyer is as wildly entertaining as it is illuminating.

Robot Souls - Programming in...

Eve Poole

Two of the biggest design problems in Artificial Intelligence are how to build robots that behave in line with human values and how to stop them ever going rogue. One under-explored solution to these alignment and control problems might be to examine how these are already addressed in the design of humans. 
 
 
 
Looking closely at the human blueprint, it contains a suite of capacities that are so clumsy they have generally been kept away from AI. It was assumed that robots with features like emotions and intuition, that made mistakes and looked for meaning and purpose, would not work as well as robots without this kind of code. But on considering why all these irrational properties are there, it seems that they emerge from the source code of soul. Because it is actually this 'junk' code that makes us human and promotes the kind of reciprocal altruism that keeps humanity alive and thriving. 
 
 
 
Robot Souls looks at developments in AI and reviews the emergence of ideas of consciousness and the soul. It places our 'junk code' in this context and argues that it is time to foreground that code, and to use it to look again at how we are programming AI.
