The global politics of artificial intelligence
\"Technologies such as artificial intelligence have led to significant advances in science and medicine, but have also facilitated new forms of repression, policing and surveillance. AI policy has become without doubt a significant issue of global politics. The Global Politics of Artificial Intelligence tackles some of the issues linked to AI development and use, contributing to a better understanding of the global politics of AI. This is an area where enormous work still needs to be done, and the contributors to this volume provide significant input into this field of study, to policy makers, academics, and society at large. Each of the chapters in this volume works as freestanding contribution, and provides an accessible account of a particular issue linked to AI from a political perspective. Contributors to the volume come from many different areas of expertise, and of the world, and range from emergent to established authors\"-- Provided by publisher.
Book
The Atlas of AI
The hidden costs of artificial intelligence, from natural
resources and labor to privacy and freedom What happens
when artificial intelligence saturates political life and depletes
the planet? How is AI shaping our understanding of ourselves and
our societies? In this book Kate Crawford reveals how this
planetary network is fueling a shift toward undemocratic governance
and increased inequality. Drawing on more than a decade of
research, award-winning science, and technology, Crawford reveals
how AI is a technology of extraction: from the energy and minerals
needed to build and sustain its infrastructure, to the exploited
workers behind \"automated\" services, to the data AI collects from
us. Rather than taking a narrow focus on code and algorithms,
Crawford offers us a political and a material perspective on what
it takes to make artificial intelligence and where it goes wrong.
While technical systems present a veneer of objectivity, they are
always systems of power. This is an urgent account of what is at
stake as technology companies use artificial intelligence to
reshape the world.

Intelligence : a very short introduction
Some people appear to be smarter than others, but how do we measure intelligence? Why do some people have better thinking powers than others? What does intelligence predict about people's health and social outcomes? This \"Very Short Introduction\" uses the best, large-scale psychological data to answer important questions about intelligence, such as how environment, genes, brain structure, gender, and age affect people's thinking skills. It asks whether intelligence increased over the 20th century. Ian Deary also considers the new field of cognitive epidemiology, which discovers links between higher intelligence and better health, lower rates of illness, and longer life. -- From publisher's description.

Book
Strategic Intelligence for American World Policy
Intelligence work is in some ways like a newspaper or newsmagazine, in some like a business, in some like the research activity of a university; very little of it involves cloaks and daggers. All of it is important to national survival, and should be understood by the citizens of a democracy.
In this remarkable book, an able scholar, experienced in foreign intelligence, analyzes all of these varied aspects of what is known as \"high-level foreign positive intelligence.\" Illustrations are drawn from that branch, but the lessons apply to all intelligence, and in fact to all those phases of business, of journalism, and (most importantly) of scholarship, where the problem is to learn what has happened or will happen.

Hybrid collective intelligence in a human–AI society
Within current debates about the future impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on human society, roughly three different perspectives can be recognised: (1) the technology-centric perspective, claiming that AI will soon outperform humankind in all areas, and that the primary threat for humankind is superintelligence; (2) the human-centric perspective, claiming that humans will always remain superior to AI when it comes to social and societal aspects, and that the main threat of AI is that humankind’s social nature is overlooked in technological designs; and (3) the collective intelligence-centric perspective, claiming that true intelligence lies in the collective of intelligent agents, both human and artificial, and that the main threat for humankind is that technological designs create problems at the collective, systemic level that are hard to oversee and control. The current paper offers the following contributions: (a) a clear description for each of the three perspectives, along with their history and background; (b) an analysis and interpretation of current applications of AI in human society according to each of the three perspectives, thereby disentangling miscommunication in the debate concerning threats of AI; and (c) a new integrated and comprehensive research design framework that addresses all aspects of the above three perspectives, and includes principles that support developers to reflect and anticipate upon potential effects of AI in society.
