Description: FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Awkward Intelligence by Katharina A. Zweig, Noah Block-Harley An expert offers a guide to where we should use artificial intelligence-and where we should not.Before we know it, artificial intelligence (AI) will work its way into every corner of our lives, making decisions about, with, and for us. Is this a good thing? Theres a tendency to think that machines can be more "objective" than humans-can make better decisions about job applicants, for example, or risk assessments. In Awkward Intelligence, AI expert Katharina Zweig offers readers the inside story, explaining how many levers computer and data scientists must pull for AIs supposedly objective decision making. She presents the good and the bad- AI is good at processing vast quantities of data that humans cannot-but its bad at making judgments about people.AI is accurate at sifting through billions of websites to offer up the best results for our search queries and it has beaten reigning champions in games of chess and Go. But, drawing on her own research, Zweig shows how inaccurate AI is, for example, at predicting whether someone with a previous conviction will become a repeat offender. Its no better than simple guesswork, and yet its used to determine peoples futures.Zweig introduces readers to the basics of AI and presents a toolkit for designing AI systems. She explains algorithms, big data, and computer intelligence, and how they relate to one another. Finally, she explores the ethics of AI and how we can shape the process. With Awkward Intelligence. Zweig equips us to confront the biggest question concerning AI- where we should use it-and where we should not. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Katharina A.
