Game programming is very rewarding nowadays and it can also be used in advertising and as a teaching tool too. Game development includes mathematics, logic, physics, AI, and much more and it can be amazingly fun. In Python, game programming is done in Pygame and it is one of the best modules for doing so. Pygame is a free and open-source library for creating video games and other multimedia programs with Python. It supports graphics, sound, input, and game development features, and has many tutorials, documentation, and examples. You can code the games and then use specific commands to change it into an executable file that you can share with your friends to show them the work you have been doing. It includes computer graphics and sound libraries designed to be used with the Python programming language. Python is a global programming language used by equally data engineers & data scientists, and it is also the most popular. Python is loved by all the Data Scientists I've talked to and many of my friends since it can automate all the mundane operational work that data engineers must perform. This Book Is Perfect For: - Total beginners with zero programming experience; - Returning professionals who haven’t written code in years; - Seasoned professionals looking for a fast, simple, crash course in Python.

This book is a comprehensive guide for employing Terraform in infrastructure as code automation, and its application to infrastructure operations. Reverse Engineering with Terraform begins with an introduction to Terraform’s core functionalities, including state files, configuration files, and providers, followed by a deep dive into the tool. You’ll then learn how to pinpoint problems with Terraform automation and how reverse engineering can help you resolve them. Drilling down, authors Sumit Bhatia and Chetan Gabhane walk you through the various steps in reverse engineering with an eye towards more effective Terraform integration with preexisting and legacy IT infrastructure. Using a real-world reverse engineering example, they demonstrate how to import a preexisting resource into your infrastructure, which can help you develop an automatable and scalable method for Terrraform adoption. You’ll also learn how to create reusable, shareable components to streamline infrastructure code and foster collaboration within teams, and advanced techniques for using Terraform to optimize infrastructure provisioning, configuration, and management.For IT architects, admins, technical managers, and infrastructure solution experts. Minimal knowledge of Python programming is the only prerequisite.

From two of TIME’s 100 Most Influential People in AI, what you need to know about AI—and how to defend yourself against bogus AI claims and products. Confused about Artificial Intelligence (AI) and worried about what it means for your future and the future of the world? You’re not alone. AI is everywhere—and few things are surrounded by so much hype, misinformation, and misunderstanding. In AI Snake Oil, computer scientists Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor cut through the confusion to give you an essential understanding of how AI works and why it often doesn’t, where it might be useful or harmful, and when you should suspect that companies are using AI hype to sell AI snake oil—products that don’t work, and probably never will. While acknowledging the potential of some AI, such as ChatGPT, AI Snake Oil uncovers rampant misleading claims about the capabilities of AI and describes the serious harms AI is already causing in how it’s being built, marketed, and used in areas such as education, medicine, hiring, banking, insurance, and criminal justice. The book explains the crucial differences between types of AI, why organizations are falling for AI snake oil, why AI can’t fix social media, why AI isn’t an existential risk, and why we should be far more worried about what people will do with AI than about anything AI will do on its own. The book also warns of the dangers of a world where AI continues to be controlled by largely unaccountable big tech companies. By revealing AI’s limits and real risks, AI Snake Oil will help you make better decisions about whether and how to use AI at work and home.

A novel approach to hybrid AI aimed at developing trustworthy agent collaborators. The vast majority of current AI relies wholly on Machine Learning (ML). However, the past thirty years of effort in this paradigm have shown that, despite the many things that ML can achieve, it is not an all-purpose solution to building human-like intelligent systems. One hope for overcoming this limitation is hybrid AI: that is, AI that combines ML with knowledge-based processing. In Agents in the Long Game of AI, Marjorie McShane, Sergei Nirenburg, and Jesse English present recent advances in hybrid AI with special emphases on content-centric computational cognitive modeling, explainability, and development methodologies. At present, hybridization typically involves sprinkling knowledge into an ML black box. The authors, by contrast, argue that hybridization will be best achieved in the opposite way: by building agents within a cognitive architecture and then integrating judiciously selected ML results. This approach leverages the power of ML without sacrificing the kind of explainability that will foster society’s trust in AI. This book shows how we can develop trustworthy agent collaborators of a type not being addressed by the “ML alone” or “ML sprinkled by knowledge” paradigms—and why it is imperative to do so.
