AI Super-Simplified


Book Description

Finally, AI (Artificial Intelligence) is presented in a "super-simplified" pictorially-rich-form, for the "rest of us" (‘non-techies’). The e-book not only explicates AI at the primer level ('IN PLAIN ENGLISH'), but also ventures into more complex areas for those wishing to explore current issues and of course all-important “future directions.” The MO used is an eclectic, and heavily pictorially-driven-method to explicate an extremely complex area: “What the heck is AI…'?” The author starts with quotes from renowned AI authorities, continues with the "W’s," (what when who where and why?”) and then proceeds in the next section to elaborate upon said W’s with at least 10 diagrammatic pictorials that each accomplish what ‘one thousand words…’ would. As part of the ’why?’ he presents essays from the leading academic institution that cover recent past issues, current issues and topics of interest, but perhaps most intriguing, what the future holds in this awe-inspiring field. Finally, he sums it all up with simple summaries in areas that do not already have “super-simplified” diagrammatic presentations.




Artificial Intelligence Simplified


Book Description

The book introduces key Artificial Intelligence (AI) concepts in an easy-to-read format with examples and illustrations. A complex, long, overly mathematical textbook does not always serve the purpose of conveying the basic AI concepts to most people. Someone with basic knowledge in Computer Science can have a quick overview of AI (heuristic searches, genetic algorithms, expert systems, game trees, fuzzy expert systems, natural language processing, super intelligence, etc.) with everyday examples. If you are taking a basic AI course and find the traditional AI textbooks intimidating, you may choose this as a “bridge” book, or as an introductory textbook. For students, there is a lower priced edition (ISBN 978-1944708016) of the same book. Published by CSTrends LLP.

Investigating AI Readiness in the Maltese Public Administration


Book Description

The book presents a unique study on the Artificial Intelligence (AI) readiness of public administrations focusing on the Maltese public administration as a case study. This was conducted following the launch of the Malta AI National Strategy in 2019. Since the Maltese public administration is the driving force behind the integration of AI solutions nationwide, the research is deemed necessary to understand whether the public workforce itself is ready to face the oncoming AI revolution. The researchers applied a mixed-methods approach to gain insight and a broader perspective of the status quo concerning AI adoption. Important considerations that stem from this study include the need for increased AI knowledge among public administrators since the majority of respondents reported a lack of awareness of AI technologies and their deployment. Understanding AI-related advantages must be accompanied by a robust instructional effort at all levels of education. It was unanimously agreed that the early inclusion of AI-related courses in the Maltese educational system will aid in developing a future AI-savvy workforce. Furthermore, upskilling and reskilling the public officers will facilitate knowledgeable human capital and proficiencies required to effectively integrate AI solutions within society. The study concludes by recommending several critical reforms within governments that will improve the AI-readiness factor of any Public Administration.
