""The AI Revolution"" is a practical guide to using new AI tools, such as ChatGPT, DALLE and Midjourney. Learn how to multiply your productivity by guiding or prompting AI in various ways. The book also introduces Microsoft Copilot, Google Bard, and Adobe Photoshop Generative Fill, among other new applications. ChatGPT reached a hundred million users in just two months after its release, faster than any other application before. This marked the advent of the generative AI era. Generative AI models generate text, images, music, videos, and even 3D models in ways previously thought impossible for machines. The book explains in an understandable manner how these AI models work. The book provides examples of how AI increases productivity, which professions are changing or disappearing, and how job markets will evolve in the coming years. With this book, you'll learn to recognize the opportunities and risks AI offers. Understand what this change demands from individuals and companies and what strategic skills are required. The book also covers legal questions caused by generative AI, like copyrights, data protection, and AI regulation. It also ponders societal impacts. AI produces content, thus influencing language, culture, and even worldviews. Therefore, it's crucial to understand by whom and how AI is trained. The AI revolution started by ChatGPT is just the beginning. This handbook is for you if you want to keep up with the rapid development of AI.

From Oxford's leading AI researcher comes a fun and accessible tour through the history and future of one of the most cutting edge and misunderstood field in science: Artificial Intelligence The somewhat ill-defined long-term aim of AI is to build machines that are conscious, self-aware, and sentient; machines capable of the kind of intelligent autonomous action that currently only people are capable of. As an AI researcher with 25 years of experience, professor Mike Wooldridge has learned to be obsessively cautious about such claims, while still promoting an intense optimism about the future of the field. There have been genuine scientific breakthroughs that have made AI systems possible in the past decade that the founders of the field would have hailed as miraculous. Driverless cars and automated translation tools are just two examples of AI technologies that have become a practical, everyday reality in the past few years, and which will have a huge impact on our world. While the dream of conscious machines remains, Professor Wooldridge believes, a distant prospect, the floodgates for AI have opened. Wooldridge's A Brief History of Artificial Intelligence is an exciting romp through the history of this groundbreaking field--a one-stop-shop for AI's past, present, and world-changing future.

This book is structured to cater to both beginners and those with some prior knowledge of AI. If you are new to the field, start from the beginning and work your way through each chapter. If you have some experience with AI, feel free to jump to specific chapters that interest you the most. We encourage you to actively engage with the material by attempting the exercises, working on projects, and using the online resources provided. AI is a hands-on field, and practical experience is invaluable.

The Complete Beginner’s Guide to Understanding and Building Machine Learning Systems with Python Machine Learning with Python for Everyone will help you master the processes, patterns, and strategies you need to build effective learning systems, even if you’re an absolute beginner. If you can write some Python code, this book is for you, no matter how little college-level math you know. Principal instructor Mark E. Fenner relies on plain-English stories, pictures, and Python examples to communicate the ideas of machine learning. Mark begins by discussing machine learning and what it can do; introducing key mathematical and computational topics in an approachable manner; and walking you through the first steps in building, training, and evaluating learning systems. Step by step, you’ll fill out the components of a practical learning system, broaden your toolbox, and explore some of the field’s most sophisticated and exciting techniques. Whether you’re a student, analyst, scientist, or hobbyist, this guide’s insights will be applicable to every learning system you ever build or use. Understand machine learning algorithms, models, and core machine learning concepts Classify examples with classifiers, and quantify examples with regressors Realistically assess performance of machine learning systems Use feature engineering to smooth rough data into useful forms Chain multiple components into one system and tune its performance Apply machine learning techniques to images and text Connect the core concepts to neural networks and graphical models Leverage the Python scikit-learn library and other powerful tools Register your book for convenient access to downloads, updates, and/or corrections as they become available.

As is tradition this Global Voice magazine summer issue brings together the talented winning, runner-up and finalist student articles in the CoBS 2022 student CSR article competition – now, the fifth year – to sit side-by-side with insights gleaned from the published research of our professors from the now eight member schools of this alliance dedicated to responsible leadership education. No time to waste! Welcome to this special summer solstice issue of Global Voice magazine #22 and delighted to publish this special issue of the Council on Business & Society quarterly magazine for your reading and download. We’re honoured to kick off the magazine with Prof. Adrian Zicari, ESSEC Business School-CoBS, co-authoring the editorial with special guest Camille Putois, CEO of the B4IG (Business For Inclusive Growth) initiative that brings together leading global companies, subject matter experts and academia to work on strategies to develop future business for the good of the widest number of citizens and the planet. We also feature a special spotlight on Prof. Mark Smith, Dean of Stellenbosch Business School, South Africa – Africa’s leading higher education institution and the latest member school of the CoBS alliance. A focal point of the highest importance in the coming years, Mark outlines the stakes at hand for the continent and the need for education to play an essential role in promoting diversity, responsible leadership and responsible business practices. In this issue, a host of insights and research-based content hosted in two sections: Business, Society and Planet. In Business, Society the contributors tackle the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the workplace, wellbeing and society; coopetition and how business rivals can become allies for a better world; the impact of political populism on climate action; how to deal with negative workplace emotions and aim at the positive; the role of business schools in building back better; and the phenomenon of presenteeism in companies that ultimately leads to poorer performance for firms – and poorer health for its employees. In the Planet section, you’ll find insights on how corporations can become more sustainable; an exploration of greenflation and the challenges facing our transition to a green economy; the stock exchange and building corporate value for potential investors through CSR; a spotlight on the ground-breaking ISE sustainability index in Brazil by one of its founders, Prof. Mario Monzoni; how to cope with the barriers in the way of reaching Net-Zero; and practitioner insight from ESG consulting firm Ksapa on designing solutions for resilient raw materials supply. In addition, our CoBS design team provides its usual beautiful graphics and our latest wry take on modern times with our opening double-page cartoon. And if you wish to apply for one or several of the top-ranked degree programmes offered by our CoBS member schools, outlines of these and contact details can be found throughout the magazine. Apply now – and positively change both your life and those of others! Do what you have to do And finally, a word on the latest Global Voice magazine front cover and its accompanying subtitle. For some of us, the strawberry may be associated with June and the long summer months – succulent, sun-drenched and tasty. This time, this gift of nature looks in a pretty bad way. “Food”, as it were, “for thought” in today’s chaotic context of supplies of essential necessities and the probable food risks for the wider world that conflict and intolerance in Europe may bring us. So interpret the cover wisely – and do what you have to do. No time to waste! Enjoy your reading! Tom Gamble, Council on Business & Society
