How to make AI capable of general intelligence, and what such technology would mean for society. Artificial Intelligence (AI) surrounds us. More and more of the systems and services you interact with every day are based on AI technology. Although some very recent AI systems are generalists to a degree, most AI is narrowly specific; that is, it can only do a single thing, in a single context. For example, your spellchecker can’t do mathematics, and the world's best chess-playing program can’t play Tetris. Human intelligence is different. We can solve a variety of tasks, including those we have not seen before. In Artificial General Intelligence, Julian Togelius explores technical approaches to developing more general Artificial Intelligence and asks what general AI would mean for human civilization. Togelius starts by giving examples of narrow AI that have superhuman performance in some way. Interestingly, there have been AI systems that are superhuman in some sense for more than half a century. He then discusses what it would mean to have general intelligence, by looking at definitions from psychology, ethology, and Computer Science. Next, he explores the two main families of technical approaches to developing more general Artificial Intelligence: foundation models through self-supervised learning, and open-ended learning in virtual environments. The final chapters of the book investigate potential Artificial General Intelligence beyond the strictly technical aspects. The questions discussed here investigate whether such general AI would be conscious, whether it would pose a risk to humanity, and how it might alter society.

Have you wondered what makes functional programming such a big deal, but haven't been able to get through any of the explanations? We wrote this book for you. Effects are the unpredictable elements in your programs. Concerns like network communication or user interaction might seem easy, but they are devilishly difficult to get right. The pristine world of algorithms devolves into the gory reality of failures and inconsistency. Traditionally, we've coped with Effects incompletely and often unwittingly. Programs have been difficult to build, adapt, and maintain. Discover a groundbreaking approach to software development using Effect Systems to control the unpredictable elements in your systems. We focus on practical techniques you can apply immediately, making complex concepts accessible to all developers. You'll learn resilient system development in a straightforward, pragmatic way, using simplified code examples and clear explanatory prose. Effect Oriented Programming is a new paradigm for programming with Effect Systems. Since Effect Systems are a new and emerging paradigm, you have limited choices. Many programming languages do not have an Effect System. Some languages have built-in support for managing Effects, while others have support through libraries. New languages that incorporate Effect Systems include OCaml, Unison, and Roc. In this book, we focus on the concepts of Effect Systems, rather than language and library specifics. We use Scala 3, which has several Effect System libraries including ZIO, Cats Effects, and Kyo. These libraries (and others) contributed to our understanding of Effect Systems. This is not a book about ZIO. You do not need experience or understanding of ZIO to understand the code in this book. For this book, ZIO is only a means to understand Effect Systems. If you use a different language, the concepts of Effect Systems may only be useful when your language or a library supports them.

Classification problems are common in business, medicine, science, engineering and other sectors of the economy. Data scientists and Machine Learning professionals solve these problems through the use of classifiers. Choosing one of these data driven classification algorithms for a given problem is a challenging task. An important aspect involved in this task is classifier performance analysis (CPA). Introduction to Classifier Performance Analysis with R provides an introductory account of commonly used CPA techniques for binary and multiclass problems, and use of the R software system to accomplish the analysis. Coverage draws on the extensive literature available on the subject, including descriptive and inferential approaches to CPA. Exercises are included at the end of each chapter to reinforce learning. This book is for those who want a reasonably complete (at least at an introductory level) and up-to-date coverage on the analysis of classification algorithms through the use of performance measures and curves. It attempts to synthesize useful material from the vast published literature on the subject. Another motivation for the book is to show how R can be used to perform the required analysis. As computational software, R has already demonstrated its excellence to a large international community of users. Its appeal is further enhanced by recently developed packages and meta-packages for Data Science, Machine Learning, and classification performance analysis in particular. This is a useful resource for upper level undergraduate and masters level students in Data Science, Machine Learning and related disciplines. Practitioners interested in learning how to use R to evaluate classifier performance can also potentially benefit from the book. The material and references in the book can also serve the needs of researchers in CPA.

Complete eight Data Science projects that lock in important real world skills–along with a practical process you can use to learn any new technique quickly and efficiently. Solve Any Data Analysis Problem guides you through eight common scenarios you'll encounter as a data scientist or analyst. As you explore each project, you’ll also master a proven process for quickly learning new skills developed by author and Half Stack Data Science podcast host David Asboth. In Solve Any Data Analysis Problem you’ll learn how to shift the way you think about data from the structured clean problems you get in a classroom, book, or bootcamp to the messy open-ended challenges of the workplace. As you work through eight problems you’ll see over and over on the job, you’ll discover a solutions-driven methodology that’s focused on getting results. You’ll learn how to determine a minimum viable answer for your stakeholders, identify and obtain the data you need to deliver, and reliably present and iterate on your findings. Which tool you are comfortable doing the above in does not matter. I will provide example solutions to the projects in the book using Python, but the focus will be on problem-solving, not the specifics of the Python programming language. Appendix A gives you a quick overview of the skills and tools in the basic Data Science toolkit. If you need to brush up on anything, we’ve linked to some useful resources you can use to get up to speed. As for most solutions I provide, the code itself will be written in Python, primarily using the Pandas library. While code snippets will be used to explain the example solution, I will focus discussions on the conceptual solution and less on the specifics of the code. The solution will be in three parts: setting up the problem statement and the data, creating the first iteration of a solution, and a third part to review the work and decide on further steps.
