Would you like to know how you can benefit from generative artificial intelligence (AI)? Then this book will be of great help to you. It shows you how AI can make your life easier, and it will teach you what added value the current application scenarios of ChatGPT, Midjourney and various other AI tools offer and where their limits lie. Whether you want to write text, conduct research, generate images or create your own program code, you can get started right away without any previous knowledge. Bolstered with many practical examples from the most diverse areas of application, this book presents ChatGPT as part of an ever-growing toolkit, and guides you on which tools to utilize and apply. This is a valuable workbook for those looking to harness and incorporate ChatGPT and generative AI into their work, studies or general life. Coders – the modern term for the species of programmers – have been electrified since the release of ChatGPT & Co. In the “good old days,” they still had to use cryptic programming languages such as C, Java or Python; today however, even laypeople are programming in natural language, i.e. prompts, with the help of chatbots. With these, even beginners can quickly get to grips with the principles of modern programming. Professionals appreciate the support of GitHub’s Copilot to solve boring standard tasks directly from the Artificial Intelligence (AI) bot or to get food for thought for new problems. This chapter shows you some of the possibilities of prompt-supported programming. Although it is already possible to execute code directly in ChatGPT using the Data Analysis Tool in ChatGPT with GPT-4o, we will first take the classic approach using a few introductory examples. We let ChatGPT generate code for us, copy it into a corresponding programming environment and test it there. It is therefore helpful to know at least the basics of the programming language used and the programming environment.

Are You Looking for an Easy and Fast Way to Learn Python? Python Crash Course for Beginners is for you! One of the main advantages of learning Python is the possibility of creating a code with great readability, which saves time and resources, which facilitates its understanding and implementation. These factors and others that you will see later, have made Python become one of the most used programming languages. Python has a number of advantageous characteristics that set it apart from other programming languages. It provides dynamic memory allocation, object-oriented programming, and procedural programming. A few critical points are discussed here. Python is a relatively easy to learn programming language in comparison to other programming languages. Its syntax is straightforward and close to the English language. Instead of using the semicolon and curly brackets, the indentation specifies the code block. It is the recommended programming language for beginners. Python is capable of doing complicated things with a few lines of code. It requires only a single line of code to execute, whereas Java or C require multiple lines. Python is an interpreted language, meaning that each line of code in a Python program is executed independently. Because it is an interpreted language, debugging is straightforward and portable. Python is cross-platform, supporting Windows, Linux, UNIX, and Macintosh. As a consequence, we can state unequivocally that Python is a portable programming language. It enables programmers to create software for multiple competing platforms using a single program.

Is a computer simulation of a brain sufficient to make it intelligent? Do you need consciousness to have intelligence? Do you need to be alive to have consciousness? This book has a dual purpose. First, it provides a multi-disciplinary research survey across all branches of neuroscience and AI research that relate to this book’s mission of bringing AI research closer to building a human-level AI (HLAI) system. It provides an encapsulation of key ideas and concepts, and provides all the references for the reader to delve deeper; much of the survey coverage is of recent pioneering research. Second, the final part of this book brings together key concepts from the survey and makes suggestions for building HLAI. This book provides accessible explanations of numerous key concepts from neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence research. This book concludes by explaining the hypothesis that computer simulation is sufficient to take AI research further toward HLAI and that the scientific method is our means to enable that progress. This book will be of great interest to a broad audience, particularly neuroscientists and AI researchers, investors in AI projects, and lay readers looking for an accessible introduction to the intersection of neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence.
