Prompting Causal Events (SpringerBriefs in Intelligent Systems)
by Jordi VallverdúPrompting marks a paradigmatic shift in how we engage with artificial intelligence—transforming static interfaces into dynamic conversations, reshaping the relationship between user intent, system behavior, and knowledge production. This book invites readers into that frontier, tracing the contours of prompting as a methodology for causal understanding across diverse academic and applied domains. At its heart, prompting democratizes computational reasoning. It lowers the threshold of expertise required to interrogate complex systems, analyze data, and simulate outcomes. Where once deep technical skill was necessary to extract insights from models or datasets, prompting enables a new kind of user—one who crafts queries, scenarios, and simulations with natural language, guided by discipline-specific rigor and cognitive intent. This transformation is especially urgent in the realm of causality, a concept as contested as it is essential. Across centuries, philosophers, scientists, statisticians, and legal scholars have debated its meaning, its measurement, and its manifestations. This book does not aim to resolve those disputes; instead, it offers a set of practical strategies to work with them—mobilizing the capabilities of generative AI to support causal reasoning tailored to disciplinary norms and constraints. Generative AI can engage in multimodal causal inference—connecting language with images, charts, simulations, and numerical data. This ability to traverse modes of representation opens new pathways for inquiry, particularly in science, education, and design. Prompting, therefore, is not simply a communication layer. It is a new medium for causal thought. The future of causality may not belong to machines or humans alone. It will belong to those who master the art of asking better questions. The author will guide the readers through the full spectrum of prompting techniques—from role simulation and reasoning chains to creative generation and ethical constraints. Whether you are a researcher, educator, policymaker, or student, this book is designed to enhance your fluency in a language we are all still learning to speak: the language of generative epistemics.
Proof Technology in Mathematics Research and Teaching (Mathematics Education in the Digital Era #14)
by Gila Hanna Michael De Villiers David A. ReidThis book presents chapters exploring the most recent developments in the role of technology in proving. The full range of topics related to this theme are explored, including computer proving, digital collaboration among mathematicians, mathematics teaching in schools and universities, and the use of the internet as a site of proof learning. Proving is sometimes thought to be the aspect of mathematical activity most resistant to the influence of technological change. While computational methods are well known to have a huge importance in applied mathematics, there is a perception that mathematicians seeking to derive new mathematical results are unaffected by the digital era. The reality is quite different. Digital technologies have transformed how mathematicians work together, how proof is taught in schools and universities, and even the nature of proof itself. Checking billions of cases in extremely large but finite sets, impossible a few decades ago, has now become a standard method of proof. Distributed proving, by teams of mathematicians working independently on sections of a problem, has become very much easier as digital communication facilitates the sharing and comparison of results. Proof assistants and dynamic proof environments have influenced the verification or refutation of conjectures, and ultimately how and why proof is taught in schools. And techniques from computer science for checking the validity of programs are being used to verify mathematical proofs. Chapters in this book include not only research reports and case studies, but also theoretical essays, reviews of the state of the art in selected areas, and historical studies. The authors are experts in the field.
Proof of Work: Blockchain Provocations 20112021 (Urbanomic / Art Editions)
by Rhea MyersA beautifully produced anthology of crypto-artist, writer, and hacker Rhea Myers's pioneering blockchain art, along with a selection of her essays, reviews, and fictions.DAO? BTC? NFT? ETH? ART? WTF? HODL as OG crypto-artist, writer, and hacker Rhea Myers searches for faces in cryptographic hashes, follows a day in the life of a young shibe in the year 2032, and patiently explains why all art should be destructively uploaded to the blockchain. Now an acknowledged pioneer whose work has graced the auction room at Sotheby&’s, Myers embarked on her first art projects focusing on blockchain tech in 2011, making her one of the first artists to engage in creative, speculative, and conceptual engagements with "the new internet." Proof of Work brings together annotated presentations of Myers&’s blockchain artworks along with her essays, reviews, and fictions—a sustained critical encounter between the cultures and histories of the artworld and crypto-utopianism, technically accomplished but always generously demystifying and often mischievous. Her deep understanding of the technical history and debates around blockchain technology is complemented by a broader sense of the crypto movement and the artistic and political sensibilities that accompanied its ascendancy. Remodeling the tropes of conceptual art and net.art to explore what blockchain technology reveals about our concepts of value, culture, and currency, Myers&’s work has become required viewing for anyone interested in the future of art, consensus, law, and collectivity.
Proofs and Algorithms
by Gilles DowekLogic is a branch of philosophy, mathematics and computer science. It studies the required methods to determine whether a statement is true, such as reasoning and computation. Proofs and Algorithms: Introduction to Logic and Computability is an introduction to the fundamental concepts of contemporary logic - those of a proof, a computable function, a model and a set. It presents a series of results, both positive and negative, - Church's undecidability theorem, Gödel's incompleteness theorem, the theorem asserting the semi-decidability of provability - that have profoundly changed our vision of reasoning, computation, and finally truth itself. Designed for undergraduate students, this book presents all that philosophers, mathematicians and computer scientists should know about logic.
