  In 6,000 food products, aspartame is found everywhere in so-called diet nutrition. However, several scientific studies show that this sweetener is harmful for children, pregnant women and epileptics. Used to replace sugar and reduce the caloric intake of food, aspartame actually works in the opposite direction, it develops obesity and diabetes. In this first in-depth investigation of the diet industry, Henriette Chardak exposes a health scandal. She shows why the use of aspartame continues despite the risks it generates. How people were pushed into consuming these chemical substances—whose harmlessness had been questioned for many years. Between Chicago and Tokyo, top-secret files and complacency of the authorities, the author offers us a breathless thriller, behind-the-scenes of the world chemical industry. The story begins in Chicago and ends up in our plates and our medicines. A real cold case, where readers will find the keys to a thriller that was played out in the 1970s. They will make up their minds about the usefulness—or danger—of this fake sugar.
  Two scoops:
  • super sweeteners from aspartame are given to cattle to make them grow fatter faster;
  • Japan, which manufactures aspartame, does not consume it.
  This book also lays bare what is was not meant to be told—the conflicts of interest, colossal stakes, secret files forbidden to the public.

  The Uncanny Muse - Music Art and...

  The Uncanny Muse explores the history of automation in the arts and delves into one of the most momentous and controversial aspects of AI: artificial creativity. The adoption of technology and machinery has long transformed the world, but as the potential for artificial intelligence expands, David Hajdu examines the new, increasingly urgent questions about technology's role in culture. 
   
   
   
  Hajdu traces the fascinating, varied ways in which inventors and artists have sought to emulate mental processes and mechanize creative production. For decades, machines and artists have engaged in expressing the human condition—along with the condition of living with machines—through player pianos, broadcasting technology, electric organs, digital movie effects, synthesizers, and motion capture. By communicating and informing human knowledge, the machines have exerted considerable influence on the history of art—and often more influence than humans have been willing to recognize. As Hajdu proclaims: "before machine learning, there was machine teaching." With thoughtful and surprising turns from Berry Gordy and George Harrison to Andy Warhol and Stevie Wonder, David Hajdu takes a novel and contrarian approach: he sees how machines through the ages have enabled creativity, not stifled it—and The Uncanny Muse sees no reason why this shouldn't be the case with AI today.
