Description: What is good technology? Is 'good' technology even possible? And how can feminism help us work towards it? The Good Robot addresses these crucial questions through the voices of leading feminist thinkers, activists and technologists. Each thinker provides a snapshot of key challenges, questions and provocations in the field of feminism and technology. While the question of whether various AI and technological advances can be ethical is not new, the embedded nature of feminist perspectives pulls out whether this perceived 'goodness' or 'wrongness' might actually impact our lives in the 21st century. This book explores both the radical possibilities of technology to disrupt practices of patriarchy, colonialism, racism and beyond but also provides a significant critique of how we can contain the ethical possibilities of entities we cannot predict. In exploring unjust technological practices and engaging critical voices in the tech industry, the existing moral issues are brought to light as well as the possible ethical quagmires. This book opens a new space of discussion on digital technologies - one that insists that the future of AI is an urgent feminist issue.

    Description: There was once a robot with a broken heart, good for nothing but expiring slowly on a scrap heap. Then one winter's day a migrating bluebird lands on his shoulder, too exhausted to go further. The robot offers her shelter in the place where his heart used to be, and her warmth and singing and companionship stir up the last glimmer of energy the robot has; he carries her across snowy wastes to the warm south, whereupon his strength dies out finally. And there he still stands today like an old hollow tree, home every year to singing birds. Andersen Press Ltd The Robot and the Bluebird - shop the best deal online on thebookbug.co.uk

But a new life is now beginning for Roz - she has been taken away, far away from her island, back to civilisation.

    Description: So, you have always wanted your very own robotic sidekick but thought you had to be a mad scientist or a superhero to have one? Well, we’re happy to tell you that you don’t! Thanks to the Motion Robot from RED5, you can have your very own, super-intelligent robot buddy! With its buff body, clenched fists, and glowing LED eyes, the Motion Robot is built to look like a serious space fighter. But, inside, it is actually just a softie that loves to sing. That’s right, we said sing! Hit the ‘ Sing’ button on the controller and it will sing a robotic melody for you. And, if that’s not cool enough for you, it can also play your music, robot sounds, give you science facts, and even life lessons on hygiene, politeness, and safety! All that is awesome enough, but, let’s not forget that this mechanical mate is called the Motion Robot. So, expect some serious motion… like dancing kind of motion! Pop this robot onto Demo Mode to see what it can do. And, if you don’t feel like dancing, this robot has about 50 actions that you can programme using the remote control! Speaking of the remote, this easy-to-use handset lets you control the robot has functions as well as move it around. Or, if you’re in the mood to get space-age, you can use your hand gestures to control the robot! Put your hand in front of the robot's infrared sensor and you can move it forwards, backwards, and side to side. You may have seen humans dancing the robot, but have you ever seen a robot dancing? No? Well now you can have your very own dancing, talking, and walking robot thanks to the RED5 Motion Robot!.
