  Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become one of the most discussed and transformative technologies of the modern era. While its roots trace back to early theoretical concepts and the works of pioneers like Alan Turing and John McCarthy, AI today represents a far more advanced reality. At its core, AI is the simulation of human intelligence in machines, particularly systems designed to think and learn like humans. This can include tasks such as problem-solving, pattern recognition, language processing, and even decision-making. 
  The concept of AI has evolved significantly over the past few decades. In the 1950s, Turing’s “Imitation Game,” later known as the Turing Test, set the stage for AI development by proposing that machines could exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to that of humans. AI research started slow, plagued by limited computing power and a lack of understanding of the human brain's complexities. However, breakthroughs in machine learning, neural networks, and data processing have allowed AI to progress rapidly, particularly over the last two decades. 
  As AI becomes an integral part of daily life, its impact is undeniable. From virtual assistants like Siri and Alexa to self-driving cars, AI is increasingly present in everything from business operations to personal devices. Major corporations and governments are investing heavily in AI research, not only for its commercial potential but also for its ability to solve complex global challenges, from improving healthcare to addressing climate change.

  An exploration of the Anthropocene and “a relentless reckoning of how we, as a species, got ourselves into the mess we’re in today” (The Wall Street Journal). 
   
  Meteorites, mega-volcanoes, and plate tectonics—the old forces of nature—have transformed Earth for millions of years. They are now joined by a new geological force—humans. Our actions have driven Earth into a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene. For the first time in our home planet's 4.5-billion-year history a single species is increasingly dictating Earth’s future. 
   
  To some the Anthropocene symbolizes a future of superlative control of our environment. To others it is the height of hubris, the illusion of our mastery over nature. Whatever your view, just below the surface of this odd-sounding scientific word—the Anthropocene—is a heady mix of science, philosophy, history, and politics linked to our deepest fears and utopian visions. 
   
  Tracing our environmental impacts through time, scientists Simon Lewis and Mark Maslin reveal a new view of human history and a new outlook for the future of humanity in the unstable world we have created.

  Lightweight, compact, distinctively styled, and now, electric: The Brompton isn't the only folding bicycle—or even the first. But everyone who has been on one will enthusiastically testify to its marvelous design (virtually unchanged over decades) and the particular joy of riding it. 
   
   
   
  Will Butler-Adams, CEO of Brompton Bicycles, has been at the company for twenty years. Initially, he worked as an engineer for Andrew Ritchie, the bike's brilliant inventor and the business's founder, before taking the helm in 2008. Butler-Adams's heartfelt mission is to grow and promote sustainable urban transportation and to improve city-dwellers' lives everywhere. 
   
    
   
  Under his leadership, Brompton has grown from making a few hundred bikes a year to over 90,000, with revenue of $130 million. But progress hasn't always been easy: There have been boardroom struggles, supply-chain problems, and conflicts with founder Andrew Ritchie. In The Brompton, Butler-Adams brings to life what it means to grow a company to global scale. He also tells the stories of the people who make the Brompton and the people who ride it. And he explains how customers all around the world fell in love with a brand that never set out to be a brand.
