What is Artificial Intelligence?

Tues, Aug 19 @ 6:00 pm

Join UND Librarian Alfred Wallace as we explore the concepts and applications of artificial intelligence. This session will provide insights into AI and its potential impact on various aspects of life. 


AI Valley

Microsoft, Google, and the trillion-dollar race to cash in on artificial intelligence
by Gary Rivlin 

006.3 RIVLIN 

Artificial Intelligence has been “just around the corner” for decades, continually disappointing those who long believed in its potential. But now, with the emergence and growing use of ChatGPT, Gemini, and a rapidly multiplying number of other AI tools, many are wondering: Has AI’s moment finally arrived? 


Co-Intelligence

Living and working with AI
by Ethan Mollick 

303.4834 MOLLICK 

Something new entered our world in November 2022, the first general purpose AI that could pass for a human and do the kinds of creative, innovative work that only humans could do previously. Wharton professor Ethan Mollick immediately understood what ChatGPT meant: after millions of years on our own, humans had developed a kind of co-intelligence that could augment, or even replace, human thinking. Through his writing, speaking, and teaching, Mollick has become one of the most prominent and provocative explainers of AI, focusing on the practical aspects of how these new tools for thought can transform our world. 


The Age of AI

by Henry Kissinger 

006.3 KISSINGER 

Generative AI is filling the internet with false information. Artists, writers, and many other professionals are in fear of their jobs. AI is discovering new medicines, running military drones, and transforming the world around us, yet we do not understand the decisions it makes, and we don’t know how to control them. 


Simply Artificial Intelligence

by DK Publishing 

006.3 QUIGLEY 

Combining bold graphics with easy-to-understand text, Simply Artificial Intelligence is the perfect introduction to the world of AI for those who are short of time but hungry for knowledge. Covering a broad range of fields within AI, from computing and mathematics to politics and philosophy, entries demystify what artificial intelligence is and how it works, how it has dramatically changed the way we live, and how it might evolve in the future.

Understanding the New Rules of Language
by Gretchen McCulloch

302.231 MCCULLOCH 

Because Internet is for anyone who's ever puzzled over how to punctuate a text message or wondered where memes come from. It's the perfect book for understanding how the internet is changing the English language, why that's a good thing, and what our online interactions reveal about who we are. Language is humanity's most spectacular open-source project, and the internet is making our language change faster and in more interesting ways than ever before. Internet conversations are structured by the shape of our apps and platforms, from the grammar of status updates to the protocols of comments and replies. 


Smart Online Research

by Charlie Light 

J NF TECH - Computers - Internet – LIGHT

One of the best things about the internet is how much information is available at the press of just a few buttons. Today, research is so much easier than it was just a few generations ago. But with all that access to knowledge, how do researchers know good information from bad? In this book, readers will learn how to find reputable online sources when conducting research. Full-color photographs and detailed fact boxes will help them determine if information is reliable and trustworthy.
