Download or read book Metaverse and NFT Investing 2022 and Beyond written by Andrew Walker and published by Andrew Walker. This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everybody wants to get on the train as soon as it arrives, so they're scrambling to buy a ticket as soon as possible. Technology, finance, politics, and the social and economic margins of the digital world have not ceased to deliver surprising packages that provide value and novelty, as well as the promise of a future utopian society. The term "cryptocurrency" is no longer a mysterious, esoteric term. A decentralized, autonomous financial system is quickly becoming the norm in almost every part of the world because of the widespread adoption of the idea of a decentralized autonomous financial system. The number of active cryptocurrency transactions and users has grown exponentially over the past few years, and the year 2021/22 was chosen as a significant part of this analysis. Bitcoin's introduction in 2009 has sparked a slew of negative headlines about crypto, ranging from heavy criticism of its working principle to random government jabs to knock it off its feet and out of the global economy to massive crypto meltdowns. Although it has stood the test of time, it continues to grow, and now even children are familiar with the term "cryptocurrency." Cryptocurrency is constantly evolving new ways to use its underlying technology—the blockchain—originally designed for crypto trading. Still, the innovation of NFTs has changed all of that. All these talks about NFTs have you scratching your head and wondering what all the fuss is all about. Astonishing sums of money are being paid for these NFTs in the six-figures and even the eight-figure range! This is not a fairy tale, my dear friends. I'm confident that after reading this e-book, the scales will fall from your eyes, and you will begin to see all the crazy good opportunities that are just out there in the digital world waiting for you to make a move.

Download or read book Exploring the Collective Unconscious in the Age of Digital Media written by Schafer, Stephen Brock and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades we have witnessed the emergence of a media age of illusion that is based on the principles of physics—the multidimensionality, immateriality, and non-locality of the unified field of energy and information—as a virtual reality. As a result, a new paradigm shift has reframed the cognitive unconscious of individuals and collectives and generated a worldview in which mediated illusion prevails. Exploring the Collective Unconscious in a Digital Age investigates the cognitive significance of an altered mediated reality that appears to have all the dimensions of a dreamscape. This book presents the idea that if the digital media-sphere proves to be structurally and functionally analogous to a dreamscape, the Collective Unconscious researched by Carl Jung and the Cognitive Unconscious researched by George Lakoff are susceptible to research according to the parameters of hard science. This pivotal research-based publication is ideally designed for use by psychologists, theorists, researchers, and graduate-level students studying human cognition and the influence of the digital media revolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foreword by Neal Stephenson, bestselling author of Snow Crash Over the last 100 years, technology has changed our world. Over the next decade it will transform our reality. The planet is headed for a momentous upheaval, and we are not prepared. We are entering a new technological age in which artificial intelligence and immersive media will transform society at all levels, mediating our lives by altering what we see, hear, and experience. Powered by immersive eyewear and driven by interactive AI agents, this new age of computing has the potential to make our world a magical place where the boundaries between the real and the virtual, the human and the artificial, rapidly fade away. If managed well, this could unleash a new age of abundance. If managed poorly, this technological revolution could easily go astray, deeply compromising our privacy, autonomy, agency, and even our humanity. In Our Next Reality, two industry veterans provide a data-driven debate on whether the new world we're creating will be a technological utopia or an AI-powered dystopia and give guidance on how to aim for the best future we can. With a Foreword by renowned author Neal Stephenson and section contributions from industry thought-leaders such as Peter H. Diamandis, Tom Furness, Phillip Rosedale, Tony Parisi, Avi Bar Zeev and Walter Parkes, this book answers over a dozen of the most pressing questions we face as AI/VR/AR accelerates the digitization of our world.

Download or read book Ethics in the AI Technology and Information Age written by Michael Boylan and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-05-11 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly, technology, the Internet and social media are playing a major part in our lives. What should we think about the ethical issues that arise, such as the changing role of intelligent machines in this Information Age? The impact of technology upon society is a perennial question, but the power of computing and artificial intelligence has ratcheted up the ethical implications of this relationship. It merits careful consideration. Ethics in the AI, Technology, and Information Age brings together a cohort of international scholars to explore the ethical ramifications of the latest technologies and their effects on our lives. This it does in three parts: (1) theoretical considerations, (2) practical applications, and (3) challenges. Beginning with theoretical essays, the book investigates the relationship between technology and nature, the limits of being “human” versus “machine,” and the moral implications of artificial intelligence. The book then examines key questions; such as ownership of technology, artificial intelligence’s replacement of human jobs and functions, privacy and cybersecurity, the ethics of self-driving cars, and the problematic aspects of drone warfare. With an appendix of films and documentaries to inspire further discussion on these topics, students and scholars will find Ethics in the AI, Technology, and Information Age an essential and engaging resource both in the classroom and in their daily technology-filled lives.

Comprised of 16 chapters, the text provides an overview of the components that go into creating a dual ABE system of encryption proofs within the following: composite bilinear groups, dual pairing vector space framework, matrix pairing framework, framework for matrix pairing, and the application of cryptographic scheme on blockchain. The team of authors discuss the basic construction components of ABE and share the security models, including the selective and semi- adaptive security models, applying these to either prime order or composite order groups. The book also discusses the tools used for converting a composite order ABE scheme to prime order and an adaptive secure ABE scheme based on prime order. In Attribute-based Encryption (ABE), readers can expect to find information on: Mathematical background of ABE, covering group and cyclic group, elliptic curves, curve selection, supersingular curves, ordinary curves, and weil and tate pairing Basic construction components of ABE, covering access structure, monotone Boolean formula, linear secret-sharing scheme, and ordered binary decision diagram Tools for converting composite order ABE schemes to prime order, covering security assumptions and conversion based on vectors for preliminaries, scheme construction, and security proof technique Foundations of blockchain technology, covering blocks, miners, hash functions, and public key cryptography Attribute-based Encryption (ABE) is an essential resource for professionals working in the field of design and cybersecurity who wish to understand how to use blockchain and the ABE scheme to provide fine-grained access control in outsourced data on third-party cloud servers.
