The Power of Asking, With ChatGPT is not a technical manual, but a philosophical and creative guide to the age of generative AI.Written by Korean author Soony Lim, this book redefines how we engage with artificial intelligence—not as a machine for answers, but as a mirror for reflection.Through a unique series of questions and dialogues with ChatGPT, Lim invites readers to reconsider the essence of thought, curiosity, and meaning in an era where machines respond be...

A groundbreaking treatise by one of the great mathematicians of our age, who outlines a style of thinking by which great ideas are conceived.What inspires and spurs on a great idea? Can we train ourselves to think in a way that will enable world-changing understandings and insights to emerge?Richard Hamming said we can. He first inspired a generation of engineers, scientists, and researchers in 1986 with “You and Your Research,” an electrifying sermon on wh...

Drawn from the pages of Scientific American and collected here for the first time, this work contains updated and condensed information, made accessible to a general popular science audience, on the subject of artificial intelligence.

F...

The genesis of the digital idea and why it transformed civilizationA few short decades ago, we were informed by the smooth signals of analog television and radio; we communicated using our analog telephones; and we even computed with analog computers. Today our world is digital, built with zeros and ones. Why did this revolution occur? The Discrete Charm of the Machine explains, in an engaging and accessible manner, the varied physical and logical reasons b...

Rubik’s Cube can be solved without relying on established algorithms and formulas. Why learn a predefined method when you can discover your unique solution? That is the basic premise of this book.Discover a set of versatile tools that blend common sense, creativity, logic, and intuition. These tools require no algorithms or formulas, and there's no need for memorization. Utilize these tools to forge your path and solve the cube independently, each time in your unique way. Alternati...

Summary of A Grand Unified TheoryThis book is an intellectual provocation that refuses to accept the convenient placeholders of mainstream physics—randomness, dark matter, and dark energy—as final answers. Instead, it demands rigorous scrutiny, fresh questions, and a relentless search for the underlying mechanisms that govern reality.At its heart, the manuscript challenges the foundational assumptions about gravity, time, entropy, ...

Today, architects and designers are beginning to look toward developments in new "smart" or "intelligent" materials and technologies for solutions to long-standing problems in building design. However, these new materials have so far been applied in a diverse but largely idiosyncratic nature, because relatively few architects have access to information about the types or properties of these new materials or technologies. Two of the leading experts in this field - Addington and Schodek - ha...

In this book you'll discover what constitutes a 'supercomputer', how the supercomputers of today function, how you can make your own computer into a super machine - through networking - and what tomorrow holds in store for computer usage in terms of hardware, software and everyday applications.

An unprecedented look into the basic physics, chemistry, and technology behind the LCDMost notably used for computer screens, televisions, and mobile phones, LCDs (liquid crystal displays) are a pervasive and increasingly indispensable part of our lives. Providing both an historical and a business-minded context, this extensive resource describes the unique scientific and engineering techniques used to create these beautiful, clever, and eminently useful devices.
