This book shows how everyday technologies embody racist, sexist, and ableist ideas; how they produce discriminatory and harmful outcomes; and how this can be challenged and changed"--OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
"The authors of Machines Like Us explore what it would take to endow computers with the kind of common sense that humans depend on every day--critically needed for AI systems to be successful in the world and to become trustworthy"--OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
"Saltman wrestles with the contradiction between the demand for radical empiricism ("data driven" everything) in contemporary education, and the flight from evidence in the enactment of policy and politics"--OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.

"Analyzing the transformation of photography by computation - and the transformation of human perception by algorithmically-driven images, from CGI to AI - The Perception Machine brings together media theory and neuroscience to understand what it means to live surrounded by image flows and machine eyes"--OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.
"If you want to know what artificial intelligence can do and what it cannot do, in this book you will find all the information that you need in an entertaining fashion. The book covers mysterious terms like algorithm and machine learning, in an approachable manner. It enables you to join the discussions on good and bad AI: Do we want machines to judge your face? Is image recognition by the comp…

The power of the ever-increasing tools and algorithms for prediction and their paradoxical effects on risk. The Age of Prediction is about two powerful, and symbiotic, trends: the rapid development and use of artificial intelligence and big data to enhance prediction, as well as the often paradoxical effects of these better predictions on our understanding of risk and the ways we live. Beginnin…
