Unmasking AI : my mission to protect what is human in a world of machines / by Buolamwini, Joy,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Dr. Joy Buolamwini is the self-described "Poet of Code" who has had a lifelong passion for computer science, engineering, and art -- disciplines that, she felt, pushed the boundaries of reality. After tinkering with robotics as a high school student in Tennessee, to developing mobile apps in Zambia as a Fulbright fellow, Buolamwini eventually found herself at MIT. As a graduate student at the "Future Factory," Buolamwini's groundbreaking research revealed that AI systems -- from leading tech companies -- were consistently failing on non-male, non-white bodies. In Unmasking AI, Buolamwini goes beyond the news headlines about racism, colorism, and sexism in Big Tech to tell the remarkable story of how she uncovered what she calls "the coded gaze" -- evidence of racial and gender bias in tech -- and galvanized the movement to prevent AI harms by founding the Algorithmic Justice League. Applying an intersectional lens to both tech industry and research sector, Buolamwini shows how race, gender, and ability bias can overlap and render broad swaths of humanity vulnerable in our AI-dependent world. Computers, she reminds us, are reflections of both the aspirations and the limitations of the people who create them"--

For Emma : a novel / by Morrison, Ewan,author.;
A year after Emma Henson, a young, genius biotech scientist, dies in a covert AI brain-chip experiment, her father, Josh, has nothing left to live for and vows to get revenge on the Silicon Valley CEO responsible. Josh has thirty days to make his homemade bombs and to say goodbye to life. To give himself courage in the countdown, he records daily video messages to his lost "Em." Memories flood him as he searches for the moments in Emma's short life where he could have been a better father and saved her. Fueled by the horrific memories of Em's death--her body and brain devoured by the AI "infinity" system--he grapples with constructing and testing his DIY bombs as his thirty days start to run out, and Emma's voice returns to him, speaking with him as he sets to complete his mission. He worries that he's gone insane--he doubts if he can see the violent act through--but Emma's voice insists he continue on his path toward murder and mayhem. Josh tries to resist his daughter's voice as it attempts to take full control of his body. But is it even her? Or is it a ghost, a psychotic delusion, or the AI system that is controlling him?

The Ruby code / by Khoury, Jessica,1990-;
"Bullied at school and home, Ash finds respite from his unhappy life in virtual reality games. One night, he spends his meager savings to help a stranger, who thanks him with a copy of an old fantasy game called The Glass Realm. While exploring the game, Ash meets a seemingly humble shopkeeper named Ruby. But from the start, Ruby seems different than the other townsfolk--especially when she and Ash stumble across an in-game quest designed not for the player, but for Ruby to solve. When Ruby begins developing powerful abilities that can rewrite the very code of the game, they realize she is far more than a pre-programmed side character. Following the quest left for her in The Glass Realm, the pair discover that Ruby is actually a sentient AI who's been hidden inside the game. Originally built as a weapon, her developer stole her from his employers and hid her away, hoping to keep her safe. That safety vanishes when Ash and Ruby are targeted by the powerful shadow organization who funded Ruby's development, and who would use her to spark a world war to rack up huge profits. Caught in a deadly game that blurs the lines between real and virtual, Ash and Ruby must flee for their lives. If they lose this game--they might just doom the world"--Publisher.
