Late in 2017, the global significance of the conversation about artificial intelligence (AI) changed forever. China put the world on alert when it released a plan to dominate all aspects of AI across the planet. Only weeks later, Vladimir Putin raised a Russian red flag in response by declaring AI the future for all humankind, and proclaiming that, "Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become the ruler of the world." The race was on. Consistent with their unique national agendas, countries throughout the world began plotting their paths and hurrying their pace. Now, not long after, the race has become a sprint. Despite everything at stake, to most of us AI remains shrouded by a cloud of mystery and misunderstanding. Hidden behind complicated and technical jargon and confused by fantastical depictions of science fiction, the modern realities of AI and its profound implications are hard to decipher, but crucial to recognize. In T-Minus AI: Humanity's Countdown to Artificial Intelligence and the New Pursuit of Global Power, author Michael Kanaan explains AI from a human-oriented perspective we can all finally understand. A recognized national expert and the U.S. Air Force's first Chairperson for Artificial Intelligence, Kanaan weaves a compelling new view on our history of innovation and technology to masterfully explain what each of us should know about modern computing, AI, and machine learning. Kanaan also dives into the global implications of AI by illuminating the cultural and national vulnerabilities already exposed and the pressing issues now squarely on the table. AI has already become China's all-purpose tool to impose its authoritarian influence around the world. Russia, playing catch up, is weaponizing AI through its military systems and now infamous, aggressive efforts to disrupt democracy by whatever disinformation means possible. America and like-minded nations are awakening to these new realities—and the paths they're electing to follow echo loudly the political foundations and, in most cases, the moral imperatives upon which they were formed. As we march toward a future far different than ever imagined, T-Minus AI is fascinating and crucially well-timed. It leaves the fiction behind, paints the alarming implications of AI for what they actually are, and calls for unified action to protect fundamental human rights and dignities for all.

You interact with Artificial Intelligence every day, and you may not even realize it In this book, you will explore the history and development of Machine Learning and how it has revolutionized the world we live in today. Starting from the early days of simple algorithms that learned how to play checkers, to the complex models that can now drive cars and analyze massive amounts of data in real-time. Through easy-to-understand examples and real-world applications, you will gain a deeper understanding of the math and probability behind Machine Learning. You'll discover how the massive collection of data is essential to the development of learning algorithms, and how it is used to make decisions that affect our lives every day. Explore the relationship between Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, and Neural Networks, and how they work together to create intelligent machines capable of reacting to the world around them. You'll also learn about the challenges facing Machine Learning today and the ethical dilemmas that arise when AI is left unchecked. This book is for anyone who wants to understand the inner workings of Machine Learning, its real-world applications, and the potential of Artificial Intelligence in our lives. Whether you're a student, a researcher, or just someone who's interested in the future of technology, this book is a must-read.

Nature can be a great source of inspiration for artificial intelligence algorithms because its technology is considerably more advanced than our own. Among its wonders are strong AI, nanotechnology, and advanced robotics. Nature can therefore serve as a guide for real-life problem solving. In this book, you will encounter algorithms influenced by ants, bees, genomes, birds, and cells that provide practical methods for many types of AI situations. Although nature is the muse behind the methods, we are not duplicating its exact processes. The complex behaviors in nature merely provide inspiration in our quest to gain new insights about data. Artificial Intelligence for Humans is a book series meant to teach AI to those readers who lack an extensive mathematical background. The reader only needs knowledge of basic college algebra and computer programming. Additional topics are thoroughly explained. Every chapter also includes a programming example. Examples are currently provided in Java, C#, and Python. Other languages are planned. No knowledge of biology is needed to read this book. With a forward by Dave Snell.

While exposure to data has become more or less a daily ritual for the rank-and-file knowledge worker, true understanding-treated in this book as data literacy-resides in knowing what lies behind the data. Everything from the data's source to the specific choice of input variables, algorithmic transformations, and visual representation shape the accuracy, relevance, and value of the data and mark its journey from raw data to business insight. It's also important to grasp the terminology and basic concepts of data analytics as much as it is to have the financial literacy to be successful as a decisionmaker in the business world. In this book, we make sense of data analytics without the assumption that you understand specific data science terminology or advanced programming languages to set you on your path. Topics covered in this book: Data Mining Big Data Machine Learning Alternative Data Data Management Web Scraping Regression Analysis Clustering Analysis Association Analysis Data Visualization Business Intelligence
