A penetrating guide to Artificial Intelligence (AI): what it is, what it does, and how it will change our lives.
At a breathtaking pace, artificial intelligence is getting better and faster at making complex decisions. AI can already identify malignant tumors on CT scans, give legal advice, out-bluff the best poker players in the world, and, with ever-increasing skill, drive our cars. In Who's Afraid of AI?, award-winning author Thomas Ramge expertly explains how machines are learning to learn, and he questions what today's explosion of AI capability could mean for tomorrow.

This book has two practical motivations and one philosophic motiavtion. The two practical movitations are: (1) to introduce R to finance professionals, or people who want to become finance professionals, who wish to move beyond Excel for their quantitative work and (2) to introduce various finance coding paradigms to R coders. The book seeks to be a resource for R coders interested in finance, or financiers who are interested in R or quantitative work generally. The philosophical motivation for both audiences is to demonstrate and emphasize reproducible finance with good R code.

Behavior Trees (BTs) provide a way to structure the behavior of an artificial agent such as a robot or a non-player character in a computer game. Traditional design methods, such as finite state machines, are known to produce brittle behaviors when complexity increases, making it very hard to add features without breaking existing functionality. BTs were created to address this very problem, and enables the creation of systems that are both modular and reactive. Behavior Trees in Robotics and AI: An Introduction provides a broad introduction as well as an in-depth exploration of the topic, and is the first comprehensive book on the use of BTs. This book introduces the subject of BTs from simple topics, such as semantics and design principles, to complex topics, such as learning and task planning.
