    Abstract: Interest in the blockchain ledger that supports Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is rising in the tech community, particularly among planners in the enterprise. How will enterprise companies use blockchains? Many possibilities exist, such as recent efforts by Maersk and IBM to build a network for tracking container shipments that will integrate thousands of businesses. In this ebook, author Mike Loukides examines how the enterprise might work with blockchains in a way that takes real advantage of the technology. Managers and strategists will start with the basics and then examine several issues that could arise when building a blockchain. You'll also learn about current blockchain projects for digital identity, power distribution, shipping, labor, the IoT, healthcare, education, and games. Learn how blockchains provide strong guarantees about accuracy and consistency, even when shared by untrusted participants Understand Bitcoin's intricate process for adding new blocks to its chain Examine how blockchains are able to maintain privacy and anonymity Learn about smart contracts-also known as decentralized applications or Dapps Explore enterprise blockchain providers, hosting companies, tools vendors, platform and framework providers, and consultancies Review a list of questions you need to consider when looking into a blockchain deployment

    Abstract: As the impact of data science continues to grow on society there is an increased need to discuss how data is appropriately used and how to address misuse. Yet, ethical principles for working with data have been available for decades. The real issue today is how to put those principles into action. With this report, authors Mike Loukides, Hilary Mason, and DJ Patil examine practical ways for making ethical data standards part of your work every day. To help you consider all of possible ramifications of your work on data projects, this report includes: A sample checklist that you can adapt for your own procedures Five framing guidelines (the Five C's) for building data products: consent, clarity, consistency, control, and consequences Suggestions for building ethics into your data-driven culture Now is the time to invest in a deliberate practice of data ethics, for better products, better teams, and better outcomes. Get a copy of this report and learn what it takes to do good data science today.

    What is AI? (2018)
    Sebastopol, CA : O'Reilly Media

    Language: English

    Edition: First edition.
    Keywords: Artificial intelligence ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: As this brief article explains, AI broadly defines many systems designed to answer questions and solve problems. Consider Amazon's recommendation system. Or the GPS navigation system that talks to you. Like plumbing or electricity, we'll soon take AI for granted as it steadily does more to help us manage our lives. In this article, O'Reilly's Mike Loukides and Ben Lorica offer a definition of AI by discussing the meaning of intelligence, and exploring whether modern AI applications operate as assistants or actors.

    What is artificial intelligence? (2016)
    Sebastopol, CA : O'Reilly Media
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume)
    Keywords: Artificial intelligence ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: From computer vision to game playing, artificial intelligence (AI) has made a lot of progress in the past few years. Companies such as Google and Facebook have already placed huge bets on this technology, and over the next decade, AI features will steadily creep into one product after another. In this O'Reilly report, you'll examine the state of AI today and where we might be headed in coming years. To explain today's AI capabilities, authors Ben Lorica and Mike Loukides look at prominent examples such as Google's AlphaGo, self-driving cars, and face recognition-AIs that consist of narrow solutions to specific problems. Can researchers develop general intelligence flexible enough for an AI to learn without supervision, or choose what it wants to learn? This report takes a deeper look into: The meaning of "general intelligence" when applied to AIs Moving AIs from supervised learning to unsupervised learning Why AIs can easily solve problems that humans find challenging, but not problems that humans find easy The differences between autonomous AIs and assistive AIs that augment our intelligence Factors that have made AI a hot topic in recent years Today's successful AI systems, such as machine learning and computer vision OpenAI and the push to make AI research open and visible to the public

    What is the Internet of Things? (2015)
    Sebastopol, CA : O'Reilly Media
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume) , illustrations
    Edition: First edition.
    Keywords: Internet of things ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: This report is a revision of Building a Solid World, by the same authors, released in February 2014. The Internet of Things (IoT) is more than just a category of electronics. It represents an approach to blending software and hardware, drawing on the strengths of each to introduce intelligence to objects that were previously unintelligent, and to add physical endpoints to software that was once strictly virtual. Radical changes in the hardware development process have made the IoT-and its vast possibility-accessible to anyone. This report surveys the foundational changes that have enabled the IoT and takes a look at what lies ahead.

    Designing great data products (2012)

    Language: English

    Edition: 1st ed.
    Keywords: Programming (Mathematics) ; Online algorithms ; Business forecasting ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: In the past few years, we've seen many data products based on predictive modeling. These products range from weather forecasting to recommendation engines like Amazon's. Prediction technology can be interesting and mathematically elegant, but we need to take the next step: going from recommendations to products that can produce optimal strategies for meeting concrete business objectives. We already know how to build these products: they've been in use for the past decade or so, but they're not as common as they should be. This report shows how to take the next step: to go from simple predictions and recommendations to a new generation of data products with the potential to revolutionize entire industries.
