Seminar paper from the year 2024 in the subject Computer Sciences - Artificial Intelligence, University of Ibadan, language: English, abstract: This study delves into the enduring relevance of classical studies amidst the rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technology. It highlights how traditional research offers valuable insights into human nature, morality, and philosophy, essential for ethical reflection and critical thinking in the AI era. By integrating modern AI advancements with classical ideas, the paper emphasizes the importance of classical studies in shaping moral judgment and understanding human interactions with AI devices. Furthermore, it explores how AI impacts traditional research and proposes utilizing AI techniques to enhance ethical and philosophical frameworks, thereby guiding societal implications of technological progress. Through the synthesis of classical wisdom and modern innovation, the study advocates for a comprehensive approach to AI ethics that prioritizes human values.

Traces the story of how ancient cultures envisioned artificial life, automata, self-moving devices and human enhancements, sharing insights into how the mythologies of the past related to and shaped ancient machine innovations.

A timely and important book that explores the history and future, as well as the societal and ethical implications, of Artificial Intelligence as we approach the cusp of a fourth industrial revolution Zarkadakis explores one of humankind's oldest love-hate relationships—our ties with artificial intelligence, or AI. He traces AI's origins in ancient myth, through literary classics like Frankenstein, to today's sci-fi blockbusters, arguing that a fascination with AI is hardwired into the human psyche. He explains AI's history, technology, and potential; its manifestations in intelligent machines; its connections to neurology and consciousness, as well as—perhaps most tellingly—what AI reveals about us as human beings. In Our Own Image argues that we are on the brink of a fourth industrial revolution—poised to enter the age of Artificial Intelligence as science fiction becomes science fact. Ultimately, Zarkadakis observes, the fate of AI has profound implications for the future of science and humanity itself.

There are many books available in the market on the proposed topic but none of them can be termed as comprehensive. Besides, students face many problems in understanding the language of this books. Keeping these points in mind, Artificial Intelligence was prepared, which should be simple enough to comprehend and comprehensive enough to encompass all the topics of different institutions and universities.

This book is a history of artificial intelligence, that audacious effort to duplicate in an artifact what we consider to be our most important property—our intelligence. It is an invitation for anybody with an interest in the future of the human race to participate in the inquiry.

"Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are one of the top investment priorities in these days. We may expect that by 2030, some 800 million jobs will have disappeared and taken over by machines, and artificial intelligence will reach human levels by around 2029. Follow that out further to 2045, we will have multiplied the intelligence, the human biological machine intelligence of our civilization a billion-fold. The time of machines requires new forms of work and new ways of business education. This book is authored by a range of international experts with a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives hopefully bringing us closer to the responses for the questions like how may AI be used /or is a threat for PRME implementation, how will AI impact the business education world or what we should teach in business school in the time of AI (what the 'right' set of future skills is)? In our book, we will try to address the following questions: 1. How will AI impact the business education world? 2. How may AI be used /or is it a threat for PRME implementation? 3. What we should teach (what the 'right' set of future skills is)? 4. How should we teach (the way in which schools should teach and assess them)? 5. Where should we teach (what implications does AI have for today's education infrastructure)?"--

Let Over Lambda is one of the most hardcore computer programming books out there. Starting with the fundamentals, it describes the most advanced features of the most advanced language: Common Lisp. Only the top percentile of programmers use lisp and if you can understand this book you are in the top percentile of lisp programmers. If you are looking for a dry coding manual that re-hashes common-sense techniques in whatever langue du jour, this book is not for you. This book is about pushing the boundaries of what we know about programming. While this book teaches useful skills that can help solve your programming problems today and now, it has also been designed to be entertaining and inspiring. If you have ever wondered what lisp or even programming itself is really about, this is the book you have been looking for.
