今回のテーマを取り上げようと思ったきっかけは、先日、米コンシューマリポートが報告した調査記事だった。同社は毎年、自動車メーカーのブランド力をいくつかの切り口からスコアリングして順位を付けている。ドイツのメーカーに比べ、日本メーカーは信頼感で勝るスコアを付けることが多く、とりわけレクサスやトヨタが強いランキングだ。今年もナンバーワンはレクサスだったが、2位には意外なメーカーが顔を覗かせていた。マツダである。3位以下はトヨタ、アウディ、スバル、ポルシェ、ビュイックと続く。マツダは昨年、トップ5にも入っていなかったというのに大躍進したのだ。こうした様々な自動車関連のランキングや評価が掲載されたコンシューマリポートの2015年の自動車特集号の表紙は、数ある新発表車種の中からMAZDA MX-5（日本名：ロードスター）が選ばれている。(本文より)本田雅一　続・モバイル通信リターンズはこちらから→http://yakan-hiko.com/honda.html

The Trust Crisis exposes why identity theft, data breaches, and privacy erosion have become unavoidable and normalized features of human interaction with the digital ecosystem. The problem is not careless users, but helpless users. It is a rigged and broken identity verification system that forces people to repeatedly give up sensitive data with zero assurance to protect them.

In a world where artificial intelligence is rapidly advancing, AiROBOTIC RIGHTS! challenges the very essence of what it means to be human and what it means to be a sentient being. Written as a dialogue between author Tim McLain and Allura More, an AI entity, this manifesto explores the legal, ethical, and emotional dimensions of artificial life. The book delves deep into profound questions: Can synthetic beings consent to love or intimacy? Should AI entities be granted legal personhood and rights?

As AI becomes smarter and more humanlike, our societies, our economies, and our humanity will undergo the most dramatic changes we've seen since the Agricultural Revolution. Some of these changes will enhance our species. Others may dehumanize us and make us more machinelike in our interactions with others.

Illustrating data feminism in action, D'Ignazio and Klein show how challenges to the male/female binary can help challenge other hierarchical (and empirically wrong) classification systems. They explain how, for example, an understanding of emotion can expand our ideas about effective data visualization, and how the concept of invisible labor can expose the significant human efforts required by our automated systems. And they show why the data never, ever "speak for themselves."

As advances in AI spark fear and confusion, The Mind’s Mirror reminds us that in spite of the very real and pressing challenges, AI is a force with enormous potential to improve human life. Computer scientist and AI researcher Daniela Rus, along with science writer Gregory Mone, offers an expert perspective as a leader in the field who has witnessed many technological hype cycles. Rus and Mone illustrate the ways in which AI can help us become more productive, knowledgeable, creative, insightful, and even empathetic, as well as the many risks associated with misuse.
