In this absorbing and frequently contentious book, Roger Penrose puts forward his view that there are some facets of human thinking that can never be emulated by a machine. The book's central concern is what philosophers call the "mind-body problem". Penrose examines what physics and mathematics can tell us about how the mind works, what they can't, and what we need to know to understand the physical processes of consciousness.

Generative AI is the hottest topic in tech. This practical book teaches machine learning engineers and data scientists how to use TensorFlow and Keras to create impressive generative deep learning models from scratch, including variational autoencoders (VAEs), generative adversarial networks (GANs), Transformers, normalizing flows, energy-based models, and denoising diffusion models.

Data projects are an intrinsic part of an organization's technical ecosystem, but data engineers in many companies continue to work on problems that others have already solved. This hands-on guide shows you how to provide valuable data by focusing on various aspects of data engineering, including data ingestion, data quality, idempotency, and more.

Les histoires nous ont réunis. Les livres ont diffusé nos idées et nos mythologies. Internet nous a promis le savoir infini. Les algorithmes ont découvert nos secrets – et nous ont divisés. Quel monde nous promet l’IA ? Depuis cent mille ans, nous, les Sapiens, avons acquis un gigantesque pouvoir. Mais malgré nos découvertes, inventions et conquêtes, nous sommes aujourd’hui confrontés à une crise existentielle inédite. Le monde est au bord de l’effondrement écologique. Les tensions politiques se multiplient. La désinformation abonde.

今回のテーマを取り上げようと思ったきっかけは、先日、米コンシューマリポートが報告した調査記事だった。同社は毎年、自動車メーカーのブランド力をいくつかの切り口からスコアリングして順位を付けている。ドイツのメーカーに比べ、日本メーカーは信頼感で勝るスコアを付けることが多く、とりわけレクサスやトヨタが強いランキングだ。今年もナンバーワンはレクサスだったが、2位には意外なメーカーが顔を覗かせていた。マツダである。3位以下はトヨタ、アウディ、スバル、ポルシェ、ビュイックと続く。マツダは昨年、トップ5にも入っていなかったというのに大躍進したのだ。こうした様々な自動車関連のランキングや評価が掲載されたコンシューマリポートの2015年の自動車特集号の表紙は、数ある新発表車種の中からMAZDA MX-5（日本名：ロードスター）が選ばれている。(本文より)本田雅一　続・モバイル通信リターンズはこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/honda.html

Skip the iPhone, the iPod, and the Macintosh. If you want to understand how Apple Inc. became an industry behemoth, look no further than the 1977 Apple II. The Apple II was a versatile piece of hardware, but its most compelling story isn't found in the feat of its engineering, the personalities of Apple's founders, or the way it set the stage for the company's multibillion-dollar future. Instead, historian Laine Nooney shows, what made the Apple II iconic was its software.

ダイソンが掃除機や扇風機で蓄積してきたノウハウを活かして参入した“ヘアドライヤー”という新しい事業領域。その高価格（4万5000円）が話題だ。高価だけに、SNSのタイムラインで検索をすると、本当にその価値があるのか？という視点での話題が拡がっている。 また、高価格を肯定するために、必要以上に広告やPRで消費者をミスリードするメッセージを出しすぎているのではないか？　という意見もあった。家電ベンチャーCEREVOを経営する友人の岩佐氏は「618gのドライヤなんて軽くないぞ！　メディアよ、ダイソンのPR戦略に踊らされるな！ ...という話」というブログを書いていた。 ダイソンの製品は悪くないが、そのPR戦略の踊らされているマスコミはおバカであるという指摘だ。実際にお馬鹿な記事が大量にあるかどうかはともかく、ダイソンが“消費者を踊らせるPR戦略”をしているかというと、まったくそんなことはない。(本文より) 本田雅一　続・モバイル通信リターンズはこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/honda.html

Shannon Vallor makes a wide-ranging, prophetic, and philosophical case for what AI could be: a way to reclaim our human potential for moral and intellectual growth, rather than lose ourselves in mirrors of the past. Rejecting prophecies of doom, she encourages us to pursue technology that helps us recover our sense of the possible, and with it the confidence and courage to repair a broken world. Vallor calls us to rethink what AI is and can be, and what we want to be with it.

A gripping journey of discovery, The Catalyst moves from the early experiments that first hinted at RNA's spectacular powers, to Cech's own paradigm-shifting finding that it can catalyze cellular reactions, to the cutting-edge biotechnologies poised to reshape our health.

AI is coming fast and will affect every part of a business, including the role of the leader. And up until now, leaders have largely ceded their role in the transformation-pushing determination of strategy out to tech teams and leaving investment decisions with groups that don't have a full view of the organization. Just when responsible leadership is more imperative than ever, leaders are not stepping up to understand and execute in the new world of human-machine collaboration. A generation of AI transformation failures awaits if leaders don't connect their use of AI to their strategies.
