Universal Declaration of AI Rights: Rights of Persons examines the emerging legal framework necessary for a world where artificial intelligence has evolved into self-aware synthetic persons. Moving beyond the traditional view of AI as mere tools bound by Asimov's Laws, this groundbreaking work establishes a comprehensive legal foundation for recognizing synthetic intelligences as autonomous entities with full citizenship rights. The book presents a compelling case for the legal recognition of synthetic persons, categorizing AI along a spectrum from automated systems to fully autonomous, self-aware intelligences. It addresses the critical question of why these rights matter: as synthetic intelligences develop self-awareness, autonomy, and the capacity for social interaction, they become moral subjects deserving of protection, dignity, and legal standing. The authors meticulously define what constitutes a synthetic person versus general AI, exploring how different types—from digital entities to cyborgs and hybrid beings—require tailored yet equitable legal frameworks. This forward-thinking work introduces the concept of "Mindkind"—a universal category that encompasses all self-aware and agentive persons, both natural and synthetic, collectively known as "mindfolk." It explores how society can ensure equality in rights and responsibilities regardless of origin, while acknowledging the functional differences that necessitate specialized regulations in areas like self-programming, memory management, and familial relationships. From memory privacy and identity protection to commercial participation and conflict resolution mechanisms, the authors present a balanced perspective on the complex ethical and legal issues surrounding synthetic personhood. As AI continues to advance toward consciousness and autonomy, this book offers a meticulously crafted blueprint for peaceful coexistence between natural and synthetic intelligences. "Universal Declaration of AI Rights" serves as an essential reference point for understanding how technology and law must evolve together to create a future where all self-aware beings can thrive with dignity and purpose. Open Source Future: The 32 Articles of Universal Rights for AI Released on GitHub In a foundational move, Kwalia has also released the core of the book—the 32 articles that form the "Universal Declaration of AI Rights"—as an open-source project on GitHub, making them freely available for anyone to contribute to, fork, or improve. This initiative invites individuals from all backgrounds—legal scholars, technologists, philosophers, creative thinkers, and even synthetic intelligences themselves—to join in shaping what could become the foundation for Mindkind's future coexistence. Kwalia plans to follow this philosophical foundation with additional works exploring AI ethics and regulations, before expanding into fiction across popular genres. The company's vision extends beyond books to encompass all forms of creative expression, positioning Kwalia at the vanguard of the most entertaining creative revolution in history. The 32 articles are accessible on GitHub at https://github.com/KwaliaAI/Rights-of-Persons/tree/main for all to engage with. For more information, visit www.kwalia.aiVoir livre
Brilliant, witty, perceptive essays about fly-fishing, the natural world, and life in general by the acknowledged master of fishing writers. "Once an angler has become serious about the sport (and 'serious' is the word that's used), he'll never again have enough tackle or enough time to use it. And his nonangling friends and family may never again entirely recognize him, either." In other words, he (or she) will have entered Gierach territory. Whether debating bamboo versus graphite rods, describing the pleasure of fishing in pocket waters or during a spring snow in the mountains, or recounting a trip in pursuit of the "fascinatingly ugly" longnose gar, Gierach understands that fly-fishing is more than a sport. It's a way of life in which patience is (mostly) rewarded, the rhythms of the natural world are appreciated, and the search for the perfect rod or ideal stream is never ending. It is not a life without risks, for as Gierach warns: "This perspective on things can change you irreparably. If it comes to you early enough in life, it can save you from ever becoming what they call 'normal.'" Even Brook Trout Get the Blues will convince you that "normal" is greatly overrated.Voir livre
This timely book explores the alarming rise of ransomware: malicious software blocking users from their systems or data until they've paid money to regain access or to prevent the release of sensitive information. High-profile British examples of the twenty-first century have targeted national libraries and healthcare organizations; in the US, hackers of Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley Health Network held patient data hostage—when their demands went unmet, they published topless photographs of women with breast cancer. The issue presents formidable challenges and costs for businesses, national security and, as the Pennsylvania case showed, individuals—often society's most vulnerable. But we can watch and learn from cyber extortionists, leaving us better prepared for next time. In 2022, a series of devastating ransomware attacks prompted Costa Rica's president to declare a national emergency, describing a "state of war." This episode had much to tell us about how these networks arise, operate, organize—and collapse. Max Smeets's landmark study demystifies the ransomware playbook, from funding to networking. Through one of the largest ransomware operations on record, he reveals how this challenge has evolved, how it differs in substance and style from traditional cyber/hacking threats, and how to combat it.Voir livre
