Human Compatible by Stuart Russell Pdf

FROM THE BBC REITH LECTURER 2021 'The most important book I have read in quite some time' Daniel Kahneman; 'A must-read' Max Tegmark; 'The book we've all been waiting for' Sam Harris Humans dream of super-intelligent machines. But what happens if we actually succeed? Creating superior intelligence would be the biggest event in human history. Unfortunately, according to the world's pre-eminent AI expert, it could also be the last. In this groundbreaking book, Stuart Russell sets out why he has come to consider his own discipline an existential threat to humanity, and how we can change course before it's too late. In brilliant and lucid prose, he explains how AI actually works and its enormous capacity to improve our lives - and why we must never lose control of machines more powerful than we are. Russell contends that we can avert the worst threats by reshaping the foundations of AI to guarantee that machines pursue our objectives, not theirs. Profound, urgent and visionary, Human Compatible is the one book everyone needs to read to understand a future that is coming sooner than we think.

Human Compatible by Stuart Russell Pdf

In the popular imagination, conflict between humans and machines is seen as inevitable and its outcome all too predictable. Russell argues that this scenario can be avoided, but only if we rethink AI from the ground up. He explores the idea of intelligence in humans and in machines, describes the near-term benefits we can expect from intelligent personal assistants and accelerated scientific research, and outlines the AI breakthroughs that still have to happen before we reach superhuman AI. Russell also spells out the ways humans are already misusing AI, from lethal autonomous weapons to viral sabotage. -- adapted from jacket.

Ergonomics for Improved Productivity by Mohammad Muzammil,Abid Ali Khan,Faisal Hasan Pdf

p="" style="" This highly informative and carefully presented book focuses on the fields of ergonomics/human factors and discusses the future of the community vis-à-vis health problems, productivity, aging, etc. Ergonomic intercession must be seen in light of its effect on productivity because ergonomic solutions will improve productivity as the reduction of environmental stressors, awkward postures and efforts lead to a reduction in task execution time. The book provides promising evidence that the field of ergonomics continues to thrive and develop deeper insights into how work environments, products and systems can be developed to meet needs, demands and limitations of humans and how they can support productivity improvements. Some of the themes covered are anthropometry and workplace design, biomechanics and modelling in ergonomics, cognitive and environmental ergonomics, ergonomic intervention and productivity, ergonomics in transport, mining, agriculture and forestry, health systems, work physiology and sports ergonomics, etc. This book is beneficial to academicians, policymakers and the industry alike. ^

Parallel Population and Parallel Human by Peijun Ye,Fei-Yue Wang Pdf

Parallel Population and Parallel Human Proposes a new paradigm to investigate an individual’s cognitive deliberation in dynamic human-machine interactions Today, intelligent machines enable people to interact remotely with friends, family, romantic partners, colleagues, competitors, organizations, and others. Virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), artificial intelligence (AI), mobile social media, and other technologies have been driving these interactions to an unprecedented level. As the complexity in system control and management with human participants increases, engineers are facing challenges that arise from the uncertainty of operators or users. Parallel Population and Parallel Human: A Cyber-Physical Social Approach presents systemic solutions for modeling, analysis, computation, and management of individuals’ cognition and decision-making in human-participated systems, such as the MetaVerse. With a virtual-real behavioral approach that seeks to actively prescribe user behavior through cognitive and dynamic learning, the authors present a parallel population/human model for optimal prescriptive control and management of complex systems that leverages recent advances in artificial intelligence. Throughout the book, the authors address basic theory and methodology for modeling, describe various implementation techniques, highlight potential acceleration technologies, discuss application cases from different fields, and more. In addition, the text: Considers how an individual’s behavior is formed and how to prescribe their behavioral modes Describes agent-based computation for complex social systems based on a synthetic population from realistic individual groups Proposes a universal algorithm applicable to a wide range of social organization types Extends traditional cognitive modeling by utilizing a dynamic approach to investigate cognitive deliberation in highly time-variant tasks Presents a new method that can be used for both large-scale social systems and real-time human-machine interactions without extensive experiments for modeling Parallel Population and Parallel Human: A Cyber-Physical Social Approach is a must-read for researchers, engineers, scientists, professionals, and graduate students who work on systems engineering, human-machine interaction, cognitive computing, and artificial intelligence.

Islamic Feminisms by Roja Fazaeli Pdf

This book explores the contentious topic of women’s rights in Muslim-majority countries, with a specific focus on Iran and the Iranian women’s movement from 1906 to the present. The work contextualizes the authorial self through the use of personal narrative and interviews. A new critique of Islamic law is produced through an in-depth study of the Iranian Constitution, civil and criminal codes. The work presents a novel reconceptualization of the term "Islamic feminism" by revisiting the arguments of various scholars and through analysis of interviews with Iranian women’s rights activists. It is contended that the feminist movements can play a critical role in Islamic law reform and consequently the eventual implementation of international human rights law in Muslim-majority countries. What emerges from this study is not only a feminist critique of two major regimes of law, but also the identification of possibilities for reform in the future. The study transitions from the Iranian national context to the international by way of a comparative legal study of international human rights laws and Islamic laws. The book will appeal both to academics and human rights practitioners.
