Summary

Chronicle Preservation explores the crucial topic of preserving historical records, examining how societies have strived to safeguard knowledge across time. It highlights the evolution of preservation methods, from the meticulous work of ancient manuscript preservation to the complex challenges of modern digital archiving. For instance, the transition from hand-copied manuscripts to the printing revolution not only increased the volume of information but also introduced new preservation challenges, such as managing acidic paper's degradation. The book emphasizes that preservation is not a neutral act but is intertwined with cultural values, power dynamics, and the choices we make about what survives.

 
The book adopts a chronological approach, guiding readers through three key phases: the age of manuscripts, the printing revolution, and the digital era. It examines the technologies and techniques that defined each period, as well as the social and economic factors that influenced preservation efforts. Each chapter builds upon the previous one, exploring the unique challenges and ethical considerations that arise with each technological advancement.

 
Ultimately, Chronicle Preservation aims to challenge readers to critically examine the biases inherent in preservation efforts and to consider the ethical implications of choosing what to save and who gets access to it.

    The New Empire of AI - The...

    As AI takes hold across the planet and wealthy nations seek to position themselves as global leaders of this new technology, the gap is widening between those who benefit from it and those who are subjugated by it. As Rachel Adams shows in this hard-hitting book, growing inequality is the single biggest threat to the transformative potential of AI. Not only is AI built on an unequal global system of power, it stands poised to entrench existing inequities, further consolidating a new age of empire. 
     
     
     
    AI's impact on inequality will not be experienced in poorer countries only: it will be felt everywhere. The effects will be seen in intensified international migration as opportunities become increasingly concentrated in wealthier nations; in heightened political instability and populist politics; and in climate-related disasters caused by an industry blind to its environmental impact across supply chains. 
     
     
     
    We need to act now to address these issues. Only if the current inequitable trajectory of AI is halted, the incentives changed, and the production and use of AI decentralized from wealthier nations will AI be able to deliver on its promise to build a better world for all.
