Описание: 'This is the most important conversation of our time, and Tegmark's thought-provoking book will help you join it' Stephen HawkingTHE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER. DAILY TELEGRAPH AND THE TIMES BOOKS OF THE YEARSELECTED AS ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVOURITE BOOKS OF 2018AI is the future - but what will that future look like? Will superhuman intelligence be our slave, or become our god?Taking us to the heart of the latest thinking about AI, Max Tegmark, the MIT professor whose work has helped mainstream research on how to keep AI beneficial, separates myths from reality, utopias from dystopias, to explore the next phase of our existence. How can we grow our prosperity through automation, without leaving people lacking income or purpose? How can we ensure that future AI systems do what we want without crashing, malfunctioning or getting hacked? Should we fear an arms race in lethal autonomous weapons? Will AI help life flourish as never before, or will machines eventually outsmart us at all tasks, and even, perhaps, replace us altogether?

Описание:
How did we come to have minds? For centuries, poets, philosophers, psychologists, and physicists have wondered how the human mind developed its unrivaled abilities. Disciples of Darwin have explained how natural selection produced plants, but what about the human mind?
In From Bacteria to Bach and Back, Daniel C. Dennett builds on recent discoveries from biology and computer science to show, step by step, how a comprehending mind could in fact have arisen from a mindless process of natural selection. A crucial shift occurred when humans developed the ability to share memes, or ways of doing things not based in genetic instinct. Competition among memes produced thinking tools powerful enough that our minds don't just perceive and react, they create and comprehend.
An agenda-setting book for a new generation of philosophers and scientists, From Bacteria to Bach and Back will delight and entertain all those curious about how the mind works.

Описание: Not from Here--Selected UFO Articles Preston Dennett has written eighteen books and more than one hundred articles about UFOs and the paranormal. A seasoned investigator with 30 years of experience, he is a leader in the field. This book represents the culmination of his many years of research. For the first time, Dennett has released a collection of ten articles from his vast stock of more than a hundred. Each article is original and appears here in book form for the first time. Inside you will find the following articles and more: Conversations with Extraterrestrials In most cases, ETs are very tight-lipped. But in some rare cases, people have held conversations with extraterrestrials. Phone Call from an Alien UFO contact is much stranger than most people can imagine. Contact occurs in many ways, sometimes even by telephone. UFO--Don't Shoot When faced with the unknown, it is human nature to shoot first and ask questions later. But what if you shoot at a UFO? Alien Zoos Are there zoos onboard UFOs? The answer is yes, and they contain many strange creatures, some from here and some not from here. UFOs over Graveyards Why are aliens hovering over graveyards? These spooky accounts are both surprising and unsettling. They Walk Among Us Sometimes aliens are seen in the strangest places, including bookstores, convenience stores, buses, train-stations, casinos, schools, subways and more. The Alien-Clown Connection Alien screen memories come in many forms, but the alien-clown connection is one of the strangest of all. The Intimidation and Murder of UFO Witnesses Many UFO witnesses have learned the hard way that it can be very dangerous to be a UFO witness. Exposed--Project Redlight Not all UFOs are being piloted by ETs. In some cases, the pilots appear to be the U.S. military. Are we flying the flying saucers? Mining Data on UFOs UFOs appear to have multiple agendas, including an active interest in mines and the precious metals of our planet."
