Pitfall : the race to mine the world's most vulnerable places / by Pollon, Christopher,author.;

Includes bibliographical references and index.'Pitfall' is the compelling story of the quest to exploit the metals our civilization needs-and the cost to local people and their environments. If we cannot change our course, Christopher Pollon argues, we are condemned to mine deeper and darker places, including the depths of the ocean, sacrifice zones, and near-earth asteroids. This disturbing vision of the future also includes robotic mines without workers and social license-unless we act now.

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"--

Iron Man. [videorecording] / by Black, Shane.; Cheadle, Don.; Downey, Robert,1965-; Favreau, Jon.; Kingsley, Ben,1943-; Paltrow, Gwyneth,1972-; Pearce, Guy,1967-; Industrial Light and Magic (Studio); Marvel Entertainment Group.; Marvel Studios.; Paramount Home Entertainment (Firm);

Edited by Peter S. Elliot and Jeffrey Ford ; director of photography, John Toll ; music by Brian Tyler.Robert Downey, Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Ben Kingsley, Guy Pearce, Jon Favreau, Rebecca Hall.Having previously entered another dimension in order to save New York City, Tony remains deeply haunted by the experience. Unable to sleep, he throws himself into his work with such intensity that it begins to take a heavy toll on both his mental health and his relationship with Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow). Tony has only started to appreciate the gravity of his problems when an enigmatic terrorist named the Mandarin (Ben Kingsley) hijacks the airwaves and threatens to bring America to its knees with a painful series of "lessons" that even President Ellis (William Sadler) won't be able to ignore. When Tony's former security guard Happy Hogan (Favreau) is badly injured in an explosion caused by one of the Mandarin's agents, the vengeful playboy issues a public threat that results in his home being completely destroyed in a devastating attack, leaving him to face his enemy with only one badly damaged prototype suit. Fortunately, Tony isn't on his own, and with the help of Col. James Rhodes (Don Cheadle) and a young boy named Harley (Ty Simpkins), he pieces together the mystery of the Mandarin, whose final "lesson" promises to be the most painful of all.Canadian Home Video Rating: PG.DVD, widescreen presentation (2.40:1), 5.1 Dolby digital, Dolby digital DVS 2.0 (English).
