The “charming and terrifying” story of IBM’s breakthrough in artificial intelligence, from the Business Week technology writer and author of The Numerati (Publishers Weekly, starred review). For centuries, people have dreamed of creating a machine that thinks like a human. Scientists have made progress: computers can now beat chess grandmasters and help prevent terrorist attacks. Yet we still await a machine that exhibits the rich complexity of human thought—one that doesn’t just crunch numbers, or take us to a relevant web page, but understands and communicates with us. With the creation of Watson, IBM’s Jeopardy!-playing computer, we are one step closer to that goal. In Final Jeopardy, Stephen Baker traces the arc of Watson’s “life,” from its birth in the IBM labs to its big night on the podium. We meet Hollywood moguls and Jeopardy! masters, genius computer programmers and ambitious scientists, including Watson’s eccentric creator, David Ferrucci. We see how Watson’s breakthroughs and the future of artificial intelligence could transform medicine, law, marketing, and even science itself, as machines process huge amounts of data at lightning speed, answer our questions, and possibly come up with new hypotheses. As fast and fun as the game itself, Final Jeopardy shows how smart machines will fit into our world—and how they’ll disrupt it. “The place to go if you’re really interested in this version of the quest for creating Artificial Intelligence.” —The Seattle Times “Like Tracy Kidder’s Soul of a New Machine, Baker’s book finds us at the dawn of a singularity. It’s an excellent case study, and does good double duty as a Philip K. Dick scenario, too.” —Kirkus Reviews “Like a cross between Born Yesterday and 2001: A Space Odyssey, Baker’s narrative is both . . . an entertaining romp through the field of artificial intelligence—and a sobering glimpse of things to come.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review

Now in a revised and updated fourth edition, this trusted text and professional resource provides a developmental framework for clinical practice. The authors examine how children's trajectories are shaped by transactions among family relationships, brain development, and the social environment. Risk and resilience factors in each of these domains are highlighted. Covering infancy, toddlerhood, the preschool years, and middle childhood, the text explores how children of different ages typically behave, think, and relate to others. Developmentally informed approaches to assessment and intervention are illustrated by vivid case examples. Observation exercises and quick-reference summaries of each developmental stage facilitate learning. New to This Edition *Incorporates a decade's worth of advances in knowledge about attachment, neurodevelopment, developmental psychopathology, intervention science, and more. *Toddler, preschool, and school-age development are each covered in two succinct chapters rather than one, making the book more student friendly. *Updated throughout by new coauthor Michael F. Troy, while retaining Douglas Davies's conceptual lens and engaging style.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Linguistics, grade: 1,0, University of Kassel, course: English and American Culture and Business Studies, language: English, abstract: AI is a fascinating topic that not only baffled but also inspired the minds of philosophers, scientists, technicians, and even movie-makers. Humans are intrigued by the topic, because the investigation of AI allows people to decipher the complexity of their own minds. By trying to create AI systems people create an insight into human intelligence as well as are able to understand the world that is surrounding them. New technologies enhance the possibilities to further meet human demands concerning computational systems. This reflects the ability of the systems to understand and analyze unstructured text. The largest part of information available is written in unstructured natural language. AI systems can be used to make different types of information available for present day demands. Thoroughly examining Watson will reveal the similarities and differences of the way humans and computational systems understand natural language. This will create insight into the potential and further development of the AI systems. Natural language processing systems have a broad field of applications. The demand of these systems becomes instantly apparent, when investigating various industries such as financial services, call centers, and the medical industry. Nevertheless, Watson is not the only research program that will influence the future of society. Various smaller software programs will benefit and advance the current development. Also, knowledge representation will have an impact in areas such as the World Wide Web. One important aspect that should be considered when analyzing projects like Watson is the opportunities that arise with it. In the Art of War, Sun Tzu states: “Know thine enemy better than one knows thyself”. Investigating the Jeopardy! challenge characterizes the battle between man and machine. This leads to the conclusion that understanding Watson allows to look at aspects of human intelligence that are still unraveled.
