Generative AI with Python and TensorFlow 2

You'll learn how to implement models yourself in TensorFlow and get to grips with the latest research on deep neural networks. You'll look at Open AI's news generator, deepfakes, and training deep learning agents to navigate a simulated environment. Recreate the code that's under the hood and uncover surprising links between text, image, and music generation. Compose music using LSTM models, simple GANs, and MuseGAN. 

Conversational AI with Rasa

Today, many Americans are concerned about the impact that artificial intelligence and machine learning will have on jobs. This book examines the impact of these factors on the workforce, including issues related to worker displacement, retraining of the current workforce, and developing a skilled technical workforce of the future that can thrive in an economy in which AI increasingly plays a role.

Singular Creatures

In Singular Creatures Kingwell plumbs the depths of cultural and political meaning in the apparent transition to posthuman life. Our immersion in technology, now comprehensive to the point of invisibility, has altered forever what it means to be alive. The politics of posthumanism flow directly from our own situation, at once dependent on technology and afraid of its effects on current and future experiences.

Artificial Intelligence

A global perspective on AI AI is much more than just a simple tool powering our smartphones or allowing us to ask Alexa about the latest cinema times. It is a technology that is, in very subtle but unmistakable ways, exerting an ever-increasing influence over our lives – and the more we use it, the more AI is altering our existence. The rise of AI and super-intelligent AI raises ethical issues.
