Booklist - 01/17/2024 As the title suggests, this collaboration with the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) allows students to explore the positive benefits of artificial intelligence. Following a brief history of AI development, thematic chapters examine how this technology assists people, the environment, and the study of history and archaeology. Within each chapter, the author identifies real-world uses and research implementation, such as how AI can help visually impaired people by describing what’s on a computer screen, monitor endangered beluga whales’ behaviors, and recognize artifacts from around the world. Hadlett uses these examples to explain basic AI concepts, such as computer algorithms and how they “learn” from data called training datasets. The final chapter focuses on the humans behind AI and introduces related careers, from researcher to data scientist to computer engineer. This chapter also considers the ethics of artificial intelligence and the role of AI ethicists in pointing out data or responses that are flawed or biased. Numerous photographs of people working in a range of STEM settings reinforce the positive progression of AI. - Copyright 2024 Booklist.
