Side life / by Toutonghi, Steve,1964-author.(CARDINAL)412247;

"Smart, paranoid literary science fiction crossover for fans of Blake Crouch and Philip K. Dick, set in present-day Seattle. Vin, a down-on-his-luck young tech entrepreneur forced out of the software company he started, takes a job house-sitting a beautiful Seattle mansion. There he discovers that the owner--who has been missing for a year--has built a secret basement lab. In the lab there are computers, wired caskets, and a thick, dog-eared notebook filled with codes, odd symbols and strange drawings. The notebook referred to the entire system--computers and caskets--as the "creche." It said the creche induced a state similar to suspended animation, but that for a subject--a person in the creche--it would feel like a lucid dream. When Vin tries the system, he finds himself transported into other human consciousnesses. As his reality begins to unravel, he finds himself in terrifying journey through the multiverse, returning each time to mutated version of his own reality"--

Deep medicine : how artificial intelligence can make healthcare human again / by Topol, Eric J.,1954-author.(CARDINAL)766189;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 313-355) and index.Introduction to deep medicine -- Shallow medicine -- Medical diagnosis -- The skinny on deep learning -- Deep liabilities -- Doctors and patterns -- Clinicians without patterns -- Mental health -- AI and health systems -- Deep discovery -- Deep diet -- The virtual medical assistant -- Deep empathy.Medicine has become inhuman, to disastrous effect. The doctor-patient relationship--the heart of medicine--is broken: doctors are too distracted and overwhelmed to truly connect with their patients, and medical errors and misdiagnoses abound. In Deep Medicine, leading physician Eric Topol reveals how artificial intelligence can help. AI has the potential to transform everything doctors do, from notetaking and medical scans to diagnosis and treatment, greatly cutting down the cost of medicine and reducing human mortality. By freeing physicians from the tasks that interfere with human connection, AI will create space for the real healing that takes place between a doctor who can listen and a patient who needs to be heard. Innovative, provocative, and hopeful, Deep Medicine shows us how the awesome power of AI can make medicine better, for all the humans involved.

The magic of code : how digital language created and connects our world-- and shapes our future / by Arbesman, Samuel,author.(CARDINAL)401144;

Includes bibliographical references and index.Code is the foundational element of the digital world--powerful, complex, and transformative, much like DNA in biology. As Samuel Arbesman explores, code not only builds virtual and real-world systems but also connects diverse fields like language, mythology, and biology, revealing deep patterns and insights. While it offers immense potential, it can also deepen societal divides or be weaponized. Arbesman argues that understanding code is crucial--not just for tech experts, but for everyone--so we can shape technology to serve humanity, rather than be controlled by it.

Thinking about cybersecurity [sound recording] : from cyber crime to cyber warfare / by Rosenzweig, Paul,1959-; Teaching Company.(CARDINAL)349444;

Bibliographical references included in course guidebook.Paul Rosenzweig, lecturer."Cyberspace is the 21st century's greatest engine of change. And it's everywhere. Telecommunications, commercial and financial systems, government operations, food production-- virtually every aspect of global civilization now depends on interconnected cyber systems to operate; systems that have helped advance medicine, streamline everyday commerce, and so much more. Which makes keeping these systems safe from threat one of the most pressing problems we face. There are billions of Internet users connected to one another, and every minute, these parties create mind-boggling amounts of new information and data. Yet because cyberspace is so vast, flexible, and unregulated (and because it grows in leaps and bounds every year), all these users are highly vulnerable to dangers from cyber criminals, rogue nation-states, and other outside forces"--Publisher's web site.

The Dark Cloud : the hidden costs of the digital world / by Pitron, Guillaume,author.(CARDINAL)878238; Jacobsohn, Bianca,translator.(CARDINAL)879063;

The dark matter of a digital world -- Chapter four. Investigating a cloud -- Chapter five. An appalling waste of electricity -- Chapter six. Battle of the far north -- Chapter seven. Expansion of the digital universe -- Chapter eight. When robots out-pollute humans -- Chapter nine. Twenty thousand tentacles under the sea -- Chapter ten. The geopolitics of digital infrastructures -- Conclusion -- Acknowledgements -- Appendixes -- Notes."A gripping new investigation into the underbelly of digital technology, which addresses the pressing question of the carbon footprint it leaves behind. In a sort of news thriller, the author reveals not only how costly the virtual world is, but how damaging it is to the environment. A simple 'like' sent from our smartphones mobilises what will soon constitute the largest infrastructure built by man. This small notification, crossing the seven operating layers of the Internet, travels around the world, using submarine cables, telephone antennas, and data centres, going as far as the Arctic Circle. It turns out that the 'dematerialised' digital world, essential for communicating, working, and consuming, is much more tangible than we would like to believe. Today, it absorbs 10 per cent of the world's electricity and represents nearly 4 per cent of the planet's carbon dioxide emissions. We are struggling to understand these impacts, as they are obscured to us in the mirage of 'the cloud'"--Publisher's description.
