  Trained as a vet in Edinburgh, Hugh Cran set off to Kenya and spent the next 50 years at the sharp end, treating cattle of Maasai herdsmen, wild animals, horses and pets of ex-pats and the military, the government and everyone in-between. Travelling miles on rough roads, performing impromptu surgery by torchlight and with dirty water, Hugh fell in love with the chaotic life and the colourful people he worked for, from dawn to dusk, seven days a week.

  On balance, will AI help humanity or harm it? AI could revolutionize science, medicine, and technology, and deliver us a world of abundance and better health. Or it could be a disaster, leading to the downfall of democracy, or even our extinction. In Taming Silicon Valley, Gary Marcus, one of the most trusted voices in AI, explains that we still have a choice. And that the decisions we make now about AI will shape our next century. In this powerful manifesto, Marcus explains how Big Tech is taking advantage of us, how AI could make things much worse, and, most importantly, what we can do to safeguard our democracy, our society, and our future. 
   
   
   
  Marcus explains the potential—and potential risks—of AI in the clearest possible terms and how Big Tech has effectively captured policymakers. He begins by laying out what is lacking in current AI, what the greatest risks of AI are, and how Big Tech has been playing both the public and the government, before digging into why the US government has thus far been ineffective at reining in Big Tech. He then offers real tools, including eight suggestions for what a coherent AI policy should look like—from data rights to layered AI oversight to meaningful tax reform—and closes with how ordinary citizens can push for what is so desperately needed. Taming Silicon Valley is a must-listen for every concerned citizen.

  In today's interconnected world, technology has become the backbone of our daily lives, reshaping how we communicate, work, shop, and even socialize. The digital age has brought immense progress, opening up unprecedented opportunities for individuals and businesses alike. However, with these advancements come new challenges, particularly the growing threat of cybercrime. As we rely more heavily on the internet for both personal and professional activities, the vulnerability of our digital infrastructure has become a pressing concern. 
    
  Cybersecurity is no longer a niche concern for IT professionals but a critical issue that impacts everyone. From personal data breaches to large-scale corporate hacks, the risks of cyber attacks are more real and damaging than ever. Hackers, cybercriminals, and even state-sponsored entities have the ability to infiltrate systems, steal sensitive data, and disrupt critical services. The consequences of these actions can range from financial loss to the erosion of privacy, and in some cases, even national security threats. 
    
  The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the growing adoption of artificial intelligence and cloud computing have only heightened the complexity of cybersecurity. As we continue to digitize more aspects of our lives, the attack surface—the points where cybercriminals can strike—has expanded significantly. The very technologies designed to improve our lives also provide new avenues for malicious actors to exploit. The security of everything from smartphones to medical devices, self-driving cars, and cloud storage systems is now in question.
