Today’s “machine-learning” systems, trained by data, are so effective that we’ve invited them to see and hear for us―and to make decisions on our behalf. But alarm bells are ringing. Recent years have seen an eruption of concern as the field of machine learning advances. When the systems we attempt to teach will not, in the end, do what we want or what we expect, ethical and potentially existential risks emerge. Researchers call this the alignment problem.

Superintelligence asks the questions: What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? Nick Bostrom lays the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. The human brain has some capabilities that the brains of other animals lack. It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.

Knowledge graphs model relationships between the objects, events, situations, and concepts in your domain so you can readily identify important patterns in your own data and make better decisions. Paired up with LLMs, they promise huge potential for working with structured and unstructured enterprise data, building recommendation systems, developing fraud detection mechanisms, delivering customer service chatbots, or more. This book provides tools and techniques for efficiently organizing data, modeling a knowledge graph, and incorporating KGs into the functioning of LLMs—and vice versa.

An AI agent is a system with four moving parts. Once you can name those parts and see how they connect, the technology stops being a black box and starts being a tool you can evaluate with the same operational judgment you apply to every other decision in your business. That sentence is the entire premise of AI Agent Foundations — and the layer missing from almost everything else written on the topic.
