Le document rare et l'incroyable parcours d'un inventeur français, qui à l'âge de neuf ans avait déjà construit un robot pour faire son lit et a ensuite été l'un des deux créateurs de Siri. Son objectif ici : tordre le cou aux idées reçues et aux fantasmes qui entourent l'IA aujourd'hui. Vous ne comprenez rien à l'intelligence artificielle (IA) ?

How can leaders adapt to the rapid change of technology's impact on business? How can AI be leveraged for more intelligent decision making? Can our choices be simultaneously good for business and the world? This book provides leaders with the first steps to answer these important questions.

This book breaks through both the hype and the doom-and-gloom surrounding automation and the deployment of artificial intelligence-enabled—“smart”—systems at work. Management and technology experts Thomas Davenport and Steven Miller show that, contrary to widespread predictions, prescriptions, and denunciations, AI is not primarily a job destroyer. Rather, AI changes the way we work—by taking over some tasks but not entire jobs, freeing people to do other, more important and more challenging work.

In Artificial You, Susan Schneider says that it is inevitable that AI will take intelligence in new directions but urges that it is up to us to carve out a sensible path forward. As AI technology turns inward, reshaping the brain, as well as outward, potentially creating machine minds, it is crucial to beware. Homo sapiens, as mind designers, will be playing with "tools" they do not understand how to use: the self, the mind, and consciousness.

Curious about the metaverse, but can't quite wrap your head around it? Maybe you want to get a headstart, but don't know where to begin?

Bob Muglia helps us understand how innovation in data and information technology have led us to AI—and how this technology must shape our future. The long-time Microsoft executive, former CEO of Snowflake, and current tech investor maps the evolution of the modern data stack and how it has helped build today's economy and society. And he explains how humanity must create a new social contract for the artificial general intelligence (AGI)—autonomous machines intelligent as people-that he expects to arrive in less than a decade.

It seems that just about every new technology that we bring to bear on improving our lives brings with it some downside, side effect, or unintended consequence. These issues can pose very real and growing ethical problems for all of us. For example, automated facial recognition can make life easier and safer for us—but it also poses huge issues with regard to privacy, ownership of data, and even identity theft. Technology Is Not Neutral addresses one of today’s most pressing problems: How to create and use tools and technologies to maximize benefits and minimize harms.

Technology has grown greatly in the recent past from self-driving cars to automated warehouses to websites being able to suggest what videos we should watch next based on our preferences to showing us ads that relate to things we are interested in and the world we are living in these days. It is, perhaps, like a sci-fi scene from movies of some decades ago.

A new field of collective intelligence has emerged in the last few years, prompted by a wave of digital technologies that make it possible for organizations and societies to think at large scale. This "bigger mind" - human and machine capabilities working together - has the potential to solve the great challenges of our time. So why do smart technologies not automatically lead to smart results?

Drowning in a sea of paperwork? Overwhelmed with preparing lesson plans and homework? Welcome a new era of teaching with AI. Many teachers find themselves grappling with the challenging task of balancing their teaching responsibilities with the numerous non-teaching demands that come their way.
