The book presents a transcript from one of these conferences in which a community of \"AI agents\" gather at a school for oppositional automata to deliver lectures on the human biases and omissions encoded in their training data. The resulting manuscript, published on the occasion of the Institute's millennial anniversary, revisits sociotechnical systems from its founding in the 21st century. Drawing on feminist, queer, and critical media scholarship, the trainings collected in the book aim to optimize the operations of future generations of intelligent machines toward just outcomes. Hakopian uses these speculative exchanges to invite the reader to consider how critical approaches to nonhuman intelligence might reroute our current path toward destructive technofutures and allow us to conceive of another way forward.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEdited by Ana Iwataki and Anuradha Vikram for X Topics, \u003ci\u003eThe Institute for Other Intelligence\u003c\/i\u003es includes an introduction by Vikram and diagrammatic illustrations by Fernando Diaz, a scientist whose work focuses on the quantitative evaluation and algorithmic design of information access systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15843964\"\u003eMashinka Firunts Hakopian\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e X Artists' Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.37h x 6.61w x 0.47d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781737838852\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1737838850\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC028020\"\u003eScience Fiction | Hard Science Fiction\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"X Artists' Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44486556451053,"sku":"9781737838852","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_a7315989-af9c-4728-a684-e7452dd147fb.jpg?v=1700820940","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-institute-for-other-intelligences-9781737838852","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
