Book The Uprising

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bunk Russell
  • Publisher : Page Publishing Inc
  • Release : 2023-09-14
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 299 pages

Download or read book The Uprising written by Bunk Russell and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2023-09-14 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Uprising, the third book in what many are now calling the Heartland trilogy, Bunk Russell continues to entertain his readers with his unique writing style. In this writing, patriotism takes on a new meaning as Mike Lane, the leader of the now Patriot Party and the Newly Born Patriot Movement, creates an alliance between strange bedfellows--the patriot militias, the United States military, law enforcement, and a discontented populace. The country has an openly lesbian president and a Muslim vice president, and they have appointed socialists and socialist sympathizers throughout their cabinet. The New World Union has troops on American soil, and the president has plans to completely remove what little is left of America's constitutional republic and nationalist structure to become the president of this New World Union. The United States will essentially be dissolved, and all the government, including the military and the national and local law enforcement agencies, will be subservient to the NWU. This becomes the unifier of Mike Lane's coalition, which will attempt to take our country back and to reestablish the constitutional republic of the Founding Fathers. The Uprising plays itself out all across the heartland in a way that only this author could create with a blend of today's news, history, and science fiction. This book reminds us all that freedom is not given but is taken. --Patricia Brown The author's choice of words and literary expression were very moving and stimulating. --Edwardo Patel on The Wind in the Trees I have been looking for a profound book such as this my whole life, and to think that I would get it in my hands so soon. Great job! --Jamarcus Holmes on In the Heartland In the Heartland would certainly make a great movie. --Unknown

Book AI Narratives

  • Author : Stephen Cave
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2020-02-14
  • ISBN : 0192586041
  • Pages : 439 pages

Download or read book AI Narratives written by Stephen Cave and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-14 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first to examine the history of imaginative thinking about intelligent machines. As real Artificial Intelligence (AI) begins to touch on all aspects of our lives, this long narrative history shapes how the technology is developed, deployed and regulated. It is therefore a crucial social and ethical issue. Part I of this book provides a historical overview from ancient Greece to the start of modernity. These chapters explore the revealing pre-history of key concerns of contemporary AI discourse, from the nature of mind and creativity to issues of power and rights, from the tension between fascination and ambivalence to investigations into artificial voices and technophobia. Part II focuses on the twentieth and twenty-first-centuries in which a greater density of narratives emerge alongside rapid developments in AI technology. These chapters reveal not only how AI narratives have consistently been entangled with the emergence of real robotics and AI, but also how they offer a rich source of insight into how we might live with these revolutionary machines. Through their close textual engagements, these chapters explore the relationship between imaginative narratives and contemporary debates about AI's social, ethical and philosophical consequences, including questions of dehumanization, automation, anthropomorphisation, cybernetics, cyberpunk, immortality, slavery, and governance. The contributions, from leading humanities and social science scholars, show that narratives about AI offer a crucial epistemic site for exploring contemporary debates about these powerful new technologies.

Book A Tale Told by a Machine

Download or read book A Tale Told by a Machine written by Heather Duerre Humann and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intelligent machines have long existed in science fiction, and they now appear in mainstream films such as Bladerunner, Ex Machina, I Am Mother and Her, as well as in a recent proliferation of literary texts narrated from the machine's perspective. These new portrayals of artificial intelligence inevitably foreground dilemmas related to identity and selfhood, concepts being reassessed in the 21st century. Taking a close look at novels like Ancillary Justice, Aurora, All Systems Red, The Actuality, The Unseen World and Klara and the Sun, this work investigates key questions that arise from the use of AI narrators. It describes how these narratives challenge humanist principles by suggesting that selfhood is an illusion, even as they make the case for extending these principles to machines by proposing that they are not so different from humans. The book examines what is at stake with nonhuman narration, the qualities of AI narratives, and what it might mean to relate to a narrator when the voice adopted is that of an AI.

Book   NTELL  GENCE BEYOND HUMANS THE AL REVOLUT  ON

Download or read book NTELL GENCE BEYOND HUMANS THE AL REVOLUT ON written by Muharrem Demir and published by Muharrem Demir. This book was released on 2023-04-06 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase "The Revolution of Intelligence Beyond Human" suggests a transformational shift in the way we perceive and interact with intelligence. This could refer to the emergence of artificial intelligence technologies that surpass human intelligence, or the integration of advanced technologies with human intelligence to create a new form of intelligence beyond what we currently understand. The concept of "beyond human" implies that we are entering uncharted territory, where the boundaries of what we consider to be intelligent are being pushed beyond the limits of human cognition. This has the potential to radically change our relationship with technology, as well as our understanding of what it means to be human. The book with this title may explore various topics related to this idea, such as the development and impact of advanced AI technologies, the ethical and social implications of intelligent machines, and the possibilities and limitations of human enhancement through technology.

Book Artificial Superintelligence

Download or read book Artificial Superintelligence written by Roman V. Yampolskiy and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-04-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Attention in the AI safety community has increasingly started to include strategic considerations of coordination between relevant actors in the field of AI and AI safety, in addition to the steadily growing work on the technical considerations of building safe AI systems. This shift has several reasons: Multiplier effects, pragmatism, and urgency. Given the benefits of coordination between those working towards safe superintelligence, this book surveys promising research in this emerging field regarding AI safety. On a meta-level, the hope is that this book can serve as a map to inform those working in the field of AI coordination about other promising efforts. While this book focuses on AI safety coordination, coordination is important to most other known existential risks (e.g., biotechnology risks), and future, human-made existential risks. Thus, while most coordination strategies in this book are specific to superintelligence, we hope that some insights yield “collateral benefits” for the reduction of other existential risks, by creating an overall civilizational framework that increases robustness, resiliency, and antifragility.

Book The Driver in the Driverless Car

Download or read book The Driver in the Driverless Car written by Vivek Wadhwa and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2017-04-03 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computer beats the reigning human champion of Go, a game harder than chess. Another is composing classical music. Labs are creating life-forms from synthetic DNA. A doctor designs an artificial trachea, uses a 3D printer to produce it, and implants it and saves a child's life. Astonishing technological advances like these are arriving in increasing numbers. Scholar and entrepreneur Vivek Wadhwa uses this book to alert us to dozens of them and raise important questions about what they may mean for us. Breakthroughs such as personalized genomics, self-driving vehicles, drones, and artificial intelligence could make our lives healthier, safer, and easier. But the same technologies raise the specter of a frightening, alienating future: eugenics, a jobless economy, complete loss of privacy, and ever-worsening economic inequality. As Wadhwa puts it, our choices will determine if our future is Star Trek or Mad Max. Wadhwa offers us three questions to ask about every emerging technology: Does it have the potential to benefit everyone equally? What are its risks and rewards? And does it promote autonomy or dependence? Looking at a broad array of advances in this light, he emphasizes that the future is up to us to create—that even if our hands are not on the wheel, we will decide the driverless car's destination.

Book Asia   s Unknown Uprisings Volume 2

Download or read book Asia s Unknown Uprisings Volume 2 written by George Katsiaficas and published by PM Press. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ten years in the making, this magisterial work—the second of a two-volume study—provides a unique perspective on uprisings in nine Asian nations in the past five decades. While the 2011 Arab Spring is well known, the wave of uprisings that swept Asia in the 1980s remain hardly visible. Through a critique of Samuel Huntington’s notion of a “Third Wave” of democratization, the author relates Asian uprisings to predecessors in 1968 and shows their subsequent influence on uprisings in Eastern Europe at the end of the 1980s. By empirically reconstructing the specific history of each Asian uprising, significant insight into major constituencies of change and the trajectories of these societies becomes visible. This book provides detailed histories of uprisings in nine places—the Philippines, Burma, Tibet, China, Taiwan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Thailand, and Indonesia—as well as introductory and concluding chapters that place them in a global context and analyze them in light of major sociological theories. Profusely illustrated with photographs, tables, graphs, and charts, it is the definitive, and defining, work from the eminent participant-observer scholar of social movements.
