Story4
Der bekannteste Philosoph Deutschlands über die Moral der Künstlichen Intelligenz. Während die drohende Klimakatastrophe und der enorme Ressourcenverbrauch der Menschheit die Lebensgrundlagen unseres Planeten zerstören, machen sich Informatiker und Ingenieure daran, die Entwicklung einer Künstlichen Intelligenz voranzutreiben, die alles das können soll, was Menschen auch können - nur vielfach "optimierter". Ausgehend von völlig falschen Annahmen soll den Maschinen sogar eine menschenähnliche Moral einprogrammiert werden.

Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant dream or speculative fiction--it's here, shaping how we work, learn, love, and even understand ourselves. But as machines become more capable, what becomes of the humans who built them? In this book, Dr. Joe Chapa explores one of the most urgent and fascinating questions of our time: How can AI help us to understand our humanity?

Story0
In this critical time between worlds, technology is shaping the future of our lives, both as individual human beings and collectively as a species. Technology has brought great blessings in multiple vectors, and those benefits are regularly sung in the public sphere. However, the notion that technology is value-neutral is simply not true. All technology is encoded with value, pseudo-value—or tragically, with anti-value. So technology also threatens us with risks to our very existence on this planet.

Nur wenige Bücher über das Projektmanagement bei Software haben sich als so einflussreich und zeitlos gültig erwiesen wie "Vom Mythos des Mann-Monats": Fred Brooks bietet hier mit einem Mix aus harten Fakten und provokanten Ideen jedem tiefe Einsichten, der komplexe Projekte zu managen hat. Die Essays in diesem Buch stellen die Quintessenz seiner Erfahrungen als Projektmanager erst für die Hardware der IBM/360-Computerfamilie, dann als Leiter der Entwicklung des - wahrhaft gigantischen - Betriebssystems OS/360 dar.

The field of bioinformatics was born out of the need to manage, analyze, and examine raw genomic data in meaningful and exciting ways, such as the discipline of computational phylogenetics would provide. The evolutionary inferences reached among the several peer-reviewed articles contained in this book are neither novel nor breakthrough.
