Arguing that the computer is rewriting the old conceptions of man and his world, it suggests that the telecoms revolution is also a sexual revolution which undermines the fundamental assumptions crucial to patriarchal culture. Historical, contemporary and future developments in telecommunications and in IT are interwoven with the past, present and future of feminism, women and sexual difference, and a wealth of connections, parallels and affinities between machines and women are uncovered as a result. Challenging the belief that man was ever in control of either his own agency, the planet, or his machines, this book argues it is seriously undermined by the new scientific paradigms emergent from theories of chaos, complexity and connectionism, all of which suggest that the old distinctions between man, woman, nature and technology need to be radically reassessed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 1857026985\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9781857026986\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Plant, Sadie, N\/A, N\/A\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Fourth Estate\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fourth Estate","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Aug 1998)","offer_id":45656924717253,"sku":"9781857026986","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9781857026986.jpg?v=1768885641"},{"product_id":"machine-decision-is-not-final-china-and-the-history-and-future-of-artificial-intelligence","title":"Machine Decision Is Not Final: China and the History and Future of Artificial Intelligence","description":"\u003cb\u003eAn interdisciplinary, cross-cultural collection that decenters familiar narratives to provide a fresh perspective on what artificial intelligence is today, and what it might become.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHistorians, media theorists, science-fiction writers, philosophers, and artists from China and elsewhere reexamine the nation's intense engagement with AI, moving beyond the clichés that still dominate contemporary debate. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eToday, visions of the contested future of AI veer between common planetary goals and a new Cold War, as culturally-specific models of intelligence, speculative traditions, and thought experiments come up against the emergence of novel forms of cognition that cannot be reduced to any historical cultural tradition. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis uniquely positioned volume provides expert insight into this tension, using China as a touchstone for rethinking \"artificiality\" and \"intelligence\" as sites of difference in a way that is already present in the difficulty of precisely translating the Chinese term 人工智能.

Touching on politics, finance, data, and technology, the struggle over TikTok has enormous implications for our information landscape and the technological cold war between the United States and China.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmily Baker-White's engrossing narrative charts TikTok's rise from obscurity into the world's most valuable startup, led by its ambitious founder, Zhang Yiming--arguably the father of the modern recommendation algorithm. Zhang's products reshaped the global internet from a place where you searched for information to one where information came to you. TikTok seemed to know its users in an almost spooky way, provoking wonder and delight. People were hooked. \"We intend to become ubiquitous,\" a new-hire training video said, to put TikTok \"on every screen on the planet.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut virtually everything about TikTok's users--their interests, locations, and even their unspoken desires--was accessible to staff in Beijing. After Baker-White, a Harvard-trained lawyer and investigative reporter, revealed that Chinese engineers could access Americans' private information, a team of employees used the app to track her location and attempt to expose whistleblowers. This incident triggered an ongoing criminal investigation and escalated the US government's fight against Chinese tech.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTikTok was the first Chinese app to become a US juggernaut, and lawmakers soon recognized its potential for surveillance and propaganda--and the threat it might pose in the hands of their rivals. Yet even as hawks in Congress gained support to ban the app, the White House was secretly negotiating for unprecedented control over its information stream. In 2025, when President Donald Trump declined to enforce the so-called ban law, TikTok seemed to complete a miraculous corporate escape. It retained its influence, profits, and power, but now operated at the pleasure of two strongmen: China's Xi Jinping and Trump himself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 1324086661\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9781324086666\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Baker-White, Emily, N\/A, N\/A\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: W.

The astonishing success of Google was a black swan; so was 9\/11. For Nassim Nicholas Taleb, black swans underlie almost everything about our world, from the rise of religions to events in our own personal lives. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhy do we not acknowledge the phenomenon of black swans until after they occur? Part of the answer, according to Taleb, is that humans are hardwired to learn specifics when they should be focused on generalities. We concentrate on things we already know and time and time again fail to take into consideration what we don't know. We are, therefore, unable to truly estimate opportunities, too vulnerable to the impulse to simplify, narrate, and categorize, and not open enough to rewarding those who can imagine the \"impossible.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor years, Taleb has studied how we fool ourselves into thinking we know more than we actually do. We restrict our thinking to the irrelevant and inconsequential, while large events continue to surprise us and shape our world.

The key is in how leaders use it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors conducted in-depth interviews with more than a hundred CEOs and executives across a range of industries, met with top AI experts, and completed 360-degree surveys of scores of leaders and employees worldwide. They found that by thoughtfully delegating tasks to AI and using it to augment skills and behaviors, leaders can unlock a truly human experience of work while enhancing organizational performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AI-augmented leader moves beyond a focus on the technology itself to constantly probe how it can strengthen the core qualities of human-centered leadership: awareness, wisdom, and compassion. In this way, AI can help leaders and organizations become more human.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith deep insight and rigorous research, \u003ci\u003eMore Human\u003c\/i\u003e will help leaders navigate our AI-enabled future.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-13: 9798892790628\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Hougaard, Rasmus, Carter, Jacqueline, Afton, Marissa\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Harvard Business Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Harvard Business Review Press","offers":[{"title":"HardCover (Mar 2025)","offer_id":45657994232005,"sku":"9798892790628","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9798892790628.jpg?v=1768896726"},{"product_id":"all-in-on-ai-how-smart-companies-win-big-with-artificial-intelligence","title":"All-In on AI: How Smart Companies Win Big with Artificial Intelligence","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA \u003ci\u003eWall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA \u003ci\u003ePublisher's Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA fascinating look at the trailblazing companies using artificial intelligence to create new competitive advantage, from the author of the business classic, \u003ci\u003eCompeting on Analytics\u003c\/i\u003e, and the head of Deloitte's US AI practice.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough most organizations are placing modest bets on artificial intelligence, there is a world-class group of companies that are going all-in on the technology and radically transforming their products, processes, strategies, customer relationships, and cultures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough these organizations represent less than 1 percent of large companies, they are all high performers in their industries.
