Redhat Enterprise Linux - Start service on boot




Redhat enterprise Linux comes with two nice commands
ntsysv - simple TUI (text based interface) interface for configuring runlevels. 

chkconfig - chkconfig provides a simple command-line tool for maintaining the /etc/rc[0-6].d directory hierarchy by relieving system administrators of the task of directly manipulating the numerous symbolic links in those directories.

Turn on sshd service on boot
Code:
chkconfig sshd on
Turn on MySQL service on boot
Code:
chkconfig mysqld on
Turn on Apache / httpd service on boot
Code:
chkconfig httpd on
Turn OFF Apache / httpd service on boot
Code:
chkconfig httpd off
List if service is on of off on boot
Use --list option which lists all of the services which chkconfig knows about, and whether they are stopped or started in each runlevel:
Code:
/sbin/chkconfig --list
Sample O/p of above command

Defining AI Ethics

                           Defining AI Ethics Welcome to Defining AI Ethics. Humans rely on culturally agreed-upon morals and standards of action — or ethics — to guide their decision-making, especially for decisions that impact others. As AI is increasingly used to automate and augment decision-making, it is critical that AI is built with ethics at the core so its outcomes align with human ethics and expectations. AI ethics is a multidisciplinary field that investigates how to maximize AI's beneficial impacts while reducing risks and adverse impacts. It explores issues like data responsibility and privacy, inclusion, moral agency, value alignment, accountability, and technology misuse …to understand how to build and use AI in ways that align with human ethics and expectations.  There are five pillars for AI ethics: explainability, fairness, robustness, transparency, and privacy.  These pillars are focus areas that help us take action to build and use AI ethically.  Explainability
