Why AI Undermines Democracy and What To Do About It
by Mark CoeckelberghAcross the world, AI is used as a tool for political manipulation and totalitarian repression. Stories about AI are often stories of polarization, discrimination, surveillance, and oppression. Is democracy in danger? And can we do anything about it? In this compelling and balanced book, Mark Coeckelbergh reveals the key risks posed by AI for democracy. He argues that AI, as currently used and developed, undermines fundamental principles on which liberal democracies are founded, such as freedom and equality. How can we make democracy more resilient in the face of AI? And, more positively, what can AI do for democracy? Coeckelbergh advocates not only for more democratic technologies, but also for new political institutions and a renewal of education to ensure that AI promotes, rather than hinders, the common good for the twenty-first century. Why AI Undermines Democracy and What to Do About It is illuminating reading for anyone who is concerned about the fate of democracy.
Why CISOs Fail: The Missing Link In Security Management--and How To Fix It (Security, Audit and Leadership Series)
by Barak EngelReleased in 2017, the first edition of Why CISOs Fail reimagined the role of the Chief Information Security Officer in a new and powerful way. Written to be easily consumable by both security pros as well as everyone who must deal with them, the book explores the different realms in which security leaders fail to deliver meaningful impact to their organizations, and why this happens. Its central thesis—that security is primarily a human behavioral discipline rather than a technology one—has been gaining increased attention as a core tenet of the field, and the book was ultimately inducted into the cybersecurity canon as a leading book on security management.In this freshly updated edition, Barak Engel adds new sections that correspond with the chapters of the original book: security as a discipline; as a business enabler; in sales; in legal; in compliance; in technology; and as an executive function. He explores new ideas in each operational area, providing essential insights into emerging aspects of the discipline. He then proposes two critical concepts for security management—the concept of "digital shrinkage" and the transition from CISO to CI/SO—that together offer a new paradigm for any organization that wants to become truly successful in its security journey.Why CISOs (Still) Fail is delivered in Barak's conversational, humoristic style, that has attracted a global audience to this and his other book, The Security Hippie. As he notes, the book's goal is to entertain as much as to inform, and he dearly hopes that you have fun reading it.
Wie künstliche Intelligenz Entscheidungen prägt: Eine Multiple-Case-Study über Entscheidungen künstlicher Intelligenz im Kontext von Unternehmen
by Christian ScharffViele Organisationstheorien schließen Technik aus der sozialen Welt aus. Dies wird durch lernfähige Algorithmen infrage gestellt, deren Output sich nicht vollständig auf Menschen zurückrechnen lässt. Es ist deshalb notwendig, die Beziehung von Organisation und künstlicher Intelligenz ergebnisoffen zu untersuchen und zu erklären. Das vorliegende Buch analysiert zu diesem Zweck auf Grundlage einer Multiple-Case-Study, auf welche Weise, aus welchen Gründen und mit welchen Folgen künstliche Intelligenz an den Entscheidungen von Unternehmen beteiligt ist. Es stellt sich heraus, dass die Technik als Entscheidungsträger aktiv an Organisationen teilnehmen und deren strukturelles Fundament prägen kann. Dabei handelt es sich jedoch nur um eine von drei Erscheinungsformen künstlicher Intelligenz. Inwieweit KI-Anwendungen tatsächlich Gelegenheit erhalten, Entscheidungen zu treffen, bestimmen Organisationen nach eigenen Maßgaben.

Women and Film Animation: A Feminist Corpus at the National Film Board of Canada 1939-1989
by Marie-Josée Saint-PierreThe creations of female animation filmmakers are recognized all over the world while being, paradoxically, unknown to the general public. Women and Film Animation: A Feminist Corpus at the National Film Board of Canada 1939-1989 brings out of the shadows the work of true pioneers by presenting and analyzing, from a resolutely feminist perspective, the works they have conceived within the National Film Board of Canada (NFB).This institution has played an essential role in the emergence of animated cinema in Canada, but it is forgotten or ignored that a good part of this vast corpus is the work of women who have worked there not only as assistants but also as directors. These artists have contributed to changing the traditional representations of women in a unique way in both commercial and avant-garde animated cinema. The author accounts for their concerns, their creativity, and their many bright achievements. To do this, she relies on a wide range of critical works in social and cultural history of Canada, in feminist art history, and on multiple studies on animated cinema.Key Features: Provides an interdisciplinary approach that combines concepts from feminist studies, film theory and visual arts for a nuanced analysis of the role of women in animated cinema Discusses historical and sociological background that sheds light on the condition of women Includes a profound analysis of the changes and continuities in the role of women in this industry over time, focusing on the National Film Board of Canada Features previously unreleased archival material and selected excerpts from reviews by the NFB’s programming committee, highlighting the impact of production circumstances of the works of specific women animators
