A human's guide to machine intelligence : how algorithms are shaping our lives and how we can stay in control / by Hosanagar, Kartik,author.(CARDINAL)804999;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 239-251) and index.Part one. The rogue code. Free will in an algorithmic world ; The law of unanticipated consequences -- Part two. Algorithmic thinking. Omelet recipes for computers : how algorithms are programmed ; Algorithms become intelligent : a brief history of AI ; Machine learning and the predictability-resilience paradox ; The psychology of algorithms -- Part three. Taming the code. In algorithms we trust ; Which is to be master : algorithm or user? ; Inside the black box ; An algorithmic bill of rights -- Conclusion: The games algorithms play."Through the technology embedded in almost every major tech platform and every web-enabled device, algorithms and the artificial intelligence that underlies them make a staggering number of everyday decisions for us, from what products we buy, to where we decide to eat, to how we consume our news, to whom we date, and how we find a job. We've even delegated life-and-death decisions to algorithms--decisions once made by doctors, pilots, and judges. In [his new book], Kartik Hosanagar surveys the brave new world of algorithmic decision-making and reveals the potentially dangerous biases they can give rise to as they increasingly run our lives. He makes the compelling case that we need to arm ourselves with a better, deeper, more nuanced understanding of the phenomenon of algorithmic thinking. And he gives us a route in, pointing out that algorithms often think a lot like their creators--that is, like you and me. Hosanagar draws on his own experiences designing algorithms professionally, as well as on examples from history, computer science, and psychology, to explore how algorithms work and why they occasionally go rogue, what drives our trust in them, and the many ramifications of algorithmic decision making. He examines episodes like the fatal accidents of self-driving cars; Microsoft's chat-bot Tay, which was designed to converse on social media like a teenage girl, but instead turned sexist and racist; and even our own common, and often frustrating, experiences on services like Netflix and Amazon. A Human's Guide to Machine Intelligence is an entertaining and provocative look at one of the most important developments of our time and is a practical user's guide to this first wave of practical artificial intelligence."--Dust jacket.

Co-intelligence : living and working with AI / by Mollick, Ethan,1975-author.(CARDINAL)491724;
Includes bibliographical references.Introduction : three sleepless nights -- Creating alien minds -- Aligning the alien -- Four rules for co-intelligence -- AI as a person -- AI as a creative -- AI as a coworker -- AI as tutor -- AI as coach -- AI as our future -- Epilogue : AI as us."From Wharton professor and author of the popular One Useful Thing Substack newsletter Ethan Mollick comes the definitive playbook for working, learning, and living in the new age of AI. The release of generative AI-from LLMs like ChatGPT to image generators like DALL-E-marks a new era. We have invented technologies that boost our physical capabilities and others that automate complex tasks, but never, until now, have we created a technology that can boost our intelligence-with an impact on work and life that researchers project will be greater than that of steam power or the internet. Mollick urges us not to turn away from AI, and instead to invite AI tools to the table. He demonstrates how AI can amplify our own capacities, acting in roles from brainstorming partner to cowriter to tutor to coach, and assesses its surprising, positive impact on business and organizations. Marshalling original research from workers and teams who are leading the rest of us in embracing and leveraging AI, Mollick cuts through the hype to make a frank and eye-opening case for the real value of AI tools. Moreover, Mollick argues that the long-term impact of AI will be different from what we expect, advantaging English majors and art history experts more than coders, and impacting knowledge workers more than blue-collar workers. Co-Intelligence shows what it means for individuals and for society to think together with smart machines, and why it's imperative that we all master that skill. Co-Intelligence challenges us to utilize AI's power without losing our identity, learn from it without being misled, and harness its gifts to create a better human future. Thought-provoking, optimistic, and lucid, Co-Intelligence reveals the promise and power of generative AI."--

Cointeligencia : vivir y trabajar con la IA / by Mollick, Ethan,1975-Author(DLC)n 2008036295; Montero Cusset, Andrea,Translatorauthor(DLC)no2022051139;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 221-236).Introducci̤n: Tres noches en vela -- Crear mentes ajenas -- ALineamiento con el extrąo -- Cuatro normas para la cointeligencia -- La IA como una persona -- La IA como creativa -- La IA como compąera de trabajo -- La IA como profesora particular -- La IA como entrenadora -- La IA como nuestro futuro -- Ep̕logo: La IA como nosotros.Generative AI, the first technology capable of the kind of creative and innovative work that previously only humans could do, is here. With it comes inevitable uncertainty about how it will affect our work and personal lives--and the future of humanity. Amidst the voices of AI worshippers and doomsayers, renowned theorist Professor Ethan Mollick focuses on the practical aspects of how this tool will transform the world. 'Co-Intelligence' brings together cutting-edge research and examples of AI in action to show how we can collaborate productively with intelligent machines and why it is imperative that we master this skill. With a broad, clear, and optimistic view, Mollick lays out the potential of this new era, and challenges us to harness the enormous potential of AI without losing our identity, to learn from it without being fooled, and to use its gifts to create a better future.

Computer ethics : cautionary tales and ethical dilemmas in computing / by Forester, Tom.(CARDINAL)156191; Morrison, Perry.(CARDINAL)198943;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: our computerized society -- Computer crime -- Software theft -- Hacking and viruses -- Unreliable computers -- The invasion of privacy -- AI and expert systems -- Computerizing the workplace.Computer Ethics exposes the dangers of letting society rely too heavily on computers. Written by two insiders, it provides balanced and authoritative coverage of such topics as software unreliability, computer crime, software theft, hacking, viruses, unmanageable complexity, invasions of privacy, "artificial intelligence," and degraded work. The authors describe these problem areas with fascinating, often dramatic examples of computer abuse and misuse, augmented by extensive notes and references, role-playing exercises, and hypothetical situations. There are suggestions for further discussion at the end of each chapter. Forester and Morrison argue that it is the nature of computer systems to be unreliable, insecure, and unpredictable, and that society must face the consequences. Computer Ethics is an outgrowth of the authors' work with computer science students, focusing on the ethical dilemmas these students will confront as professionals. -- from dust jacket.
