The Good Robot - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Good Robot - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

What is good technology? Is ‘good’ technology even possible? And how can feminism help us work towards it? The Good Robot addresses these crucial questions through the voices of leading feminist thinkers, activists and technologists. Each thinker provides a snapshot of key challenges, questions and provocations in the field of feminism and technology.While the question of whether various AI and technological advances can be ethical is not new, the embedded nature of feminist perspectives pulls out whether this perceived ‘goodness’ or ‘wrongness’ might actually impact our lives in the 21st century. This book explores both the radical possibilities of technology to disrupt practices of patriarchy, colonialism, racism and beyond but also provides a significant critique of how we can contain the ethical possibilities of entities we cannot predict. In exploring unjust technological practices and engaging critical voices in the tech industry, the existing moral issues are brought to light as well as the possible ethical quagmires.This book opens a new space of discussion on digital technologies – one that insists that the future of AI is an urgent feminist issue.

Turned On - Kate Devlin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Turned On - Kate Devlin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

''Illuminating, witty and written with a wide open mind'' - Sunday Times An exploration of humans, sexuality, interaction and technology through the lens of the sex robot. The idea of the seductive sex robot is the stuff of myth, legend and science fiction. From the myth of Laodamia in Ancient Greece to twenty-first century TV shows such as Westworld , robots in human form have captured our imagination, our hopes and our fears. But beyond the fantasies there are real and fundamental questions about our relationship with technology as it moves into the realm of robotics. Turned On explores how the emerging and future development of sexual companion robots might affect us and the society in which we live. It explores the social changes arising from emerging technologies, and our relationships with the machines that someday may care for us and about us. Sex robots are here, and here to stay, and more are coming. Computer scientist and sex-robot expert Kate Devlin is our guide as we seek to understand how this technology is developing. From robots in Greek myth and the fantastical automata of the Middle Ages through to the sentient machines of the future that embody the prominent AI debate, she explores the ''modern'' robot versus the robot servants we were promised by twentieth century sci-fi, and delves into the psychological effects of the technology, and issues raised around gender politics, diversity, surveillance and violence. This book answers all the questions you''ve ever had about sex robots, as well as all the ones you haven''t yet thought of.

How to Tame a Human Tornado - Paul Tobin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

How to Tame a Human Tornado - Paul Tobin - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Friday the thirteenth was totally normal . By ‘normal’, I mean that my good-for-nothing brother was absolutely not turned into a zebra while I was being suffocated by a million frogs . There were no levitation pills , time-freezing guns or robot octopuses , and I certainly didn’t turn my classmate into a human tornado that destroyed most of the town. That would be preposterous. No, it was just another ‘normal’ day with my best friend Nate – who just happens to be a genius.

Ever.Sophia Leonie’s debut play, MILLENNIUM GIRLS , set against a musical backdrop of UK Garage and 90s classics, is a joyful and achingly honest coming-of-age story exploring identity, girlhood and consent.This edition of MILLENNIUM GIRLS was published to coincide with the run, produced by Zoe Gibbons Productions, at Brixton House in May 2025.
