商品描述

As a society, we're in a constant struggle to control uncertainty and predict the unknown. Quite often, we think of scientific fields and theories as being separate from each other. But a more careful investigation can uncover the common thread that ties many of those together. From ChatGPT, to Amazon's Alexa, to Apple's Siri, data science, and computer science have become part of our lives. In the meantime, the demand for data scientists has grown, as the field has been increasingly called the "sexiest profession."

This book attempts to specifically cover this gap in literature between data science, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI). How was uncertainty approached historically, and how has it evolved since? What schools of thought exist in philosophy, mathematics, and engineering, and what role did they play in the development of data science? It uses the history of data science as a stepping stone to explain what the future might hold.

Predicting the Unknown provides the framework that will help you understand where AI is headed, and how to best prepare for the world that's coming in the next few years, both as a society and within a business. It is not technical and avoids equations or technical explanations, yet is written for the intellectually curious reader, and the technical expert interested in the historical details that can help contextualize how we got here.

What You'll Learn

 

  • Explore the bigger picture of data science and see how to best anticipate future changes in that field
  • Understand machine learning, AI, and data science
  • Examine data science and AI through engaging historical and human-centric narratives

 

Who is This Book For

Business leaders and technology enthusiasts who are trying to understand how to think about data science and AI

 

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

作為一個社會,我們不斷努力控制不確定性並預測未知。經常地,我們認為科學領域和理論彼此是分開的。然而,經過更仔細的調查,可以發現許多這些領域之間的共同聯繫。從 ChatGPT 到亞馬遜的 Alexa,再到蘋果的 Siri,數據科學和計算機科學已經成為我們生活的一部分。與此同時,對數據科學家的需求不斷增長,這個領域越來越被稱為「最性感的職業」。

本書試圖具體填補數據科學、機器學習和人工智慧(AI)之間的文獻空白。歷史上如何處理不確定性,並且自那以後如何演變?在哲學、數學和工程中存在哪些思想流派,它們在數據科學的發展中扮演了什麼角色?本書利用數據科學的歷史作為跳板,解釋未來可能會發生什麼。

《預測未知》提供了一個框架,幫助您理解人工智慧的未來走向,以及如何為未來幾年即將到來的世界做好準備,無論是作為一個社會還是在商業中。它不具技術性,避免使用方程式或技術解釋,但卻是為了對知識充滿好奇的讀者和對歷史細節感興趣的技術專家而寫的,這些細節有助於幫助我們理解我們是如何走到今天的。

您將學到的內容:

- 探索數據科學的全貌,了解如何最好地預測該領域未來的變化
- 理解機器學習、人工智慧和數據科學
- 通過引人入勝的歷史和以人為中心的敘事來檢視數據科學和人工智慧

本書適合誰:

商業領袖和技術愛好者,試圖理解如何思考數據科學和人工智慧。
