Portal 2 [video game]. by Valve (Firm)(CARDINAL)690143;
Set far in the future from the original Portal game, awake in the Aperture Science Labs as Chell, a former test subject trying to gain her freedom from the facility and GLaDOS, the AI controller of the facility. In escaping your initial confinement, GLaDOS is also reawakened. Set in the test chambers of the facility, your goal is to make your way through the game levels using your portal gun to create temporary passages through solid surfaces, allowing for creative platforming and multiple possible means of clearing a level. Puzzle solving at times is needed to clear sections of levels.ESRB content rating: E 10+, Everyon 10+ (for fantasy violence, mild language).System requirements: Xbox 360 with NTSC designation; 21 MB to save game; HDTV 720p/1080i/1080p.

Scary smart : the future of artificial intelligence and how you can save our world / by Gawdat, Mo,author.(CARDINAL)415859;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 323-326)."There has never been a time when the risk of technology ruining our humanity has been bigger. This book is not for the engineers that write the code, the policy makers who claim they can regulate it or the experts that keep creating the buzz around it. They all know what I'm about to tell you. This is a book for you. Because, believe it or not, you are the only one that can fix it' Mo Gawdat. No one is better placed than Mo Gawdat to explain how the technology of the future works, how it could be designed to work against us and what we can do to change that. The internationally bestselling author of Solve for Happy and former chief business officer of Google X (the 'moonshot' innovation arm of Google) with more than thirty years' experience working at the cutting-edge of technology, turns his attention to cyber innovation; what it gets right and the many, many things it gets wrong. Artificial intelligence is already smarter than humans in many ways, but, like so much of life, the output is designed by the input, with automated algorithms reflecting an imperfect world. So, how can we change that? In Scary Smart, Mo Gawdat draws on his considerable expertise to answer this question and to show what we can all do now to teach ourselves and our machines how to live better"--Publisher's description.

The artificial intelligence revolution : will artificial intelligence serve us or replace us / by Del Monte, Louis Anthony.;

Del Monte is a warning regarding the threat new artificial intelligence (AI) technology poses to the survival of humankind. Will the future come down to man versus machine, when machines become more intelligent than humans? Will an artificial intelligence robot be your friend or foe? Scientists are working relentlessly at improving AI technology for the benefit of man. Evolved technology is everywhere--smart TVs, smart phones, and even smart houses. One day the artificial intelligence of these machines will match our own intelligence--and one day it will exceed it. We will have reached the "singularity," a point in time like no other. Then what? Will machines continue to serve us as the balance tips in their favor? These questions are addressed rigorously, their potentialities extrapolated for one reason--the survival of humankind. Are "strong" AI machines (SAMs) a new form of life? Should SAMs have rights? Do SAMs pose a threat to humankind? Del Monte and other AI experts predict that AI capabilities will develop into SAMs with abilities far beyond what human beings can even fathom. Will they serve us, or will SAMs take an entirely different viewpoint? That question and many more are tackled by Del Monte in this sobering look at the The Artificial Intelligence Revolution. -- Provided by publisher.
