Jason Scotts

Such great game has evolved with the Minecraft Pocket Edition. This is the game's mobile version initially made exclusive for Xperia PLAY for only $6.99. Developed and launched by Mojang AB back in August 16, 2011, the Minecraft Pocket Edition game was later introduced to other Android devices. The Minecraft Pocket Edition designed for iOS devices debuted shortly, courtesy of the iOS App Store, just a day before Minecraft 1.0 was launched at MineCon 2011. And finally, the Pocket Edition appeared on the shelves of Amazon Appstore on the 13th of September, 2012. After the initial iOS and Android releases, regular updates were also released in parallel, including the same added features on both platforms. Different exciting game play aspects added to the Pocket Edition during its Alpha Stage include more blocks and items, crafting, smelting, and many other game modes with the hopes of bringing the game version much closer to the PC game version.

What is Artificial Intelligence?

Suman Gupta

This book engages with the title question: what is artificial intelligence (AI)? Instead of reiterating received definitions or surveying the field from a disciplinary perspective, the question is engaged here by putting two standpoints into conversation. The standpoints are different in their disciplinary groundings &#x2014; i.e. technology and the humanities &#x2014; and also in their approaches &#x2014; i.e. applied and conceptual. Peter is an AI engineer: his approach is in terms of how to make AI work. Suman is a humanities researcher: his approach is in terms of what people and academics mean when they say 'AI'.A coherent argument, if not a consensus, develops by putting the two standpoints into conversation. The conversation is presented in 32 short chapters, in turn by Suman and Peter. There are two parts: Part 1, Questioning AI, and Part 2, AI and Government Policy. The first part covers issues such as the meaning of intelligence, automation, evolution, artificial and language. It outlines some of the processes through which these concepts may be technologically grounded as AI. The second part addresses policy considerations that underpin the development of AI and responds to the consequences. Themes taken up here include: rights and responsibilities; data usage and state-level strategies in the USA, UK and China; unemployment and policy futures.<b>Contents:</b> <ul><li><b><i>Part 1: Questioning AI:</i></b><ul><li>Setting Terms</li><li>More Terms</li><li>Questioning Terms, and a Provisional Concept of Intelligence</li><li>Elaborating Terms</li><li>Methods and Approaches</li><li>Methods and Field</i></li><li>Discerning the Intelligent Agent</li><li>Realising the Intelligent Agent</li><li>Recognising the Intelligent Agent</li><li>The Intelligent Agent in the Prospect</i></li><li>Devolving Evolution</i></li><li>Evolution as a Creativity Engine</i></li><li>Evolution and Articles of Faith</i></li><li>On Evolution: Ungrounded Hardwired Knowledge Short Circuits Intelligence</li><li>On Evolution: Intelligence Short Circuits Ungrounded Hardwired Knowledge</li><li>Reflections on the Artificial in AI</li><li>Parameters of the Artificial in AI</li><li>Limits of the Artificial in AI</i></li><li>Restrictions on AI Research</li><li>Expectations of AI Research</li></ul></li><li><b><i>Part 2: AI and Government Policy:</i></b><ul><li>Policy and Legal Autonomy</li><li>Autonomy and Grounding Responsibility</li><li>Legal Autonomy: Rights and Responsibilities</li><li>Autonomy: Limiting and Conferring Rights</li><li>Note on Rights and Data Matters</li><li>Note on Qualia and Using Data</li><li>Doubting Qualia and Social Data</li><li>Data Users and Data Doubters</li><li>Data Distinctions and Data Nations</li><li>Data Doubters and Data Owners</li><li>Populism, Jobs and Policy Futures</li><li>Jobs, Futures and AI Engineers</li></ul></li></ul><br><b>Readership:</b> General informed readers.

Future Texts

Группа авторов

Future Texts: Subversive Performance and Feminist Bodies sketches several possibilities for future texts, those that imagine new pathways through the forms used to express contemporary questions of race, gender, and identity. Future Texts: Subversive Performance and Feminist Bodies’ area of investigation is situated within popular culture, not as a place of critique or celebration, but rather as a contested site that crosses an array of media forms, from music video, to games, to global journalism. While there is an established tradition in feminist writing founded on experimental expression that disrupts patriarchal culture, it has too often failed to consider issues of race and class. This is evident in the dilemma faced by black feminists who, alienated from dominant feminism’s failure to consider their experience, have been forced to choose whether they were black or women first. To push back against such identity splintering, Future Texts: Subversive Performance and Feminist Bodies begins with the politics and aesthetics of Afrofuturism, which sets the stage for the dialogue around contemporary feminism that runs through the collection. With a paradigm of remix as linguistic play and reconfiguration, the chapters confront the question of narrative codes and conventions. These new formats are crucial to rewriting the relationship between hegemonic and resistant texts.

Florida

Группа авторов

This collection proposes Florida as a nexus of various contested moments, ideas, concepts, and relations. In the age of networks, it is not enough to only think of computerized, economic, or labor-intensive systems as networks. Florida is both a site of exploration—what does Florida mean – and a model for spatial work in general—how do we trace out the networked connections of a given space? Florida taps into an existing conversation regarding space, and it contributes a new approach by offering up the state as a network of both objective and personal meanings.

New Media/New Methods

Группа авторов

The essays in New Media/New Methods: The Academic Turn from Literacy to Electracy pose an invention-based approach to new media studies. They represent a specific school of theory that has emerged from the work of graduates of the University of Florida. Working from the concept of electracy, as opposed to literacy, contributors pose various heuristics for new media rhetoric and theory.
