The author argues that as we rely more and more for machines to help us think, our thinking itself is becoming richer and more complex. We're able to learn more, retain it longer, to write in curious new forms, and even to think entirely new types of thoughts.Outsmart is filled with stories of people who are living through these profound technological changes. In a series of postcards from the near future, we meet characters such as Gordon Bell, an ageing millionaire who is saving a digital copy of everything that happens to him, and Eric Hovitz, one of the world's leading artificial-intelligence researchers, who is creating software that is designed to let your computer sense your mood and then predict when you're going to be most productive at work.Lucidly written and argued, Outsmart is a breathtaking original look at our Brave New World.Smarter Than You Think303.48/33Thompson Clive1449398Cummings JeffothAUDIO9910148909803321Smarter Than You Think: How Technology Is Changing Our Minds for the Better3647654UNINA03884nam 22005655 450 991104091920332120251107114911.09789819686063(electronic bk.)978981968605610.1007/978-981-96-8606-3(MiAaPQ)EBC32405130(Au-PeEL)EBL32405130(CKB)42032187200041(DE-He213)978-981-96-8606-3(EXLCZ)994203218720004120251107d2025 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierTechnology and Innovation in Medical Sciences Breakthroughs from Gangwal School of Medical Sciences and Technology, IIT Kanpur /edited by Sandeep Verma1st ed. 2025.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Springer,2025.1 online resource (188 pages)IITK Directions,2509-6605 ;7Print version: Verma, Sandeep Technology and Innovation in Medical Sciences Singapore : Springer,c2025 9789819686056 Chapter 1: GSMST: Bridging the Gap Between Medicine and Technology -- Chapter 2: Digital Twins in Medicine -- Chapter 3: Assistive and POC Health Devices -- Chapter 4: Engineered Materials in Medicine -- Chapter 5: Development of Indigenous LVAD and PVAD -- Chapter 6: Optical Tools for Healthcare -- Chapter 7: Cancer Technologies -- Chapter 8: Platform Technologies for Infection -- Chapter 9: Medical Robotics.This comprehensive volume explores the dynamic intersection of medicine and technology, emphasizing innovative advancements and their impact on healthcare.
