  Chrysalis - Maria Sibylla Merian...

  Before Darwin, before Audubon, there was Maria Sibylla Merian. 
  An artist turned naturalist, Merian was born just 16 years after Galileo proclaimed that the Earth orbited the sun. But at the age of 50, she sailed from Europe to South America on a solo scientific expedition to study insect metamorphosis—an unheard-of journey for any naturalist at that time, much less a woman. 
  When she returned, she produced a book that secured her reputation, only to have it savaged in the 19th century by scientists who disdained the work of “amateurs.” 
  Chrysalis takes us from golden age Amsterdam to the Surinam tropics to modern laboratories where Merian’s insights fuel a new branch of biology. The New Yorker called it a "spellbinding biography." In it, Kim Todd brings to life a 17th century woman whose boldness and vision would still be exceptional today.

  The hidden costs of artificial intelligence—from natural resources and labor to privacy, equality, and freedom 
   
   
   
  What happens when artificial intelligence saturates political life and depletes the planet? How is AI shaping our understanding of ourselves and our societies? Drawing on more than a decade of research, award-winning scholar Kate Crawford reveals how AI is a technology of extraction: from the minerals drawn from the earth, to the labor pulled from low-wage information workers, to the data taken from every action and expression. This book reveals how this planetary network is fueling a shift toward undemocratic governance and increased inequity. Rather than taking a narrow focus on code and algorithms, Crawford offers us a material and political perspective on what it takes to make AI and how it centralizes power. This is an urgent account of what is at stake as technology companies use artificial intelligence to reshape the world.

  Why would anyone spend a large portion of their life in a world that doesn’t really exist, or with friends they have never met? Those are questions anyone considering online gaming should explore. It starts out innocently enough—with the excitement, unbelievable graphics, and unique storylines that suck you into a world which can rob you of time, self-esteem, health, and the ability to distinguish between reality and fantasy.The sad truth is that there are millions upon millions of people just like you and me who fall down that rabbit hole. It’s a drug, an escape, a test of our fortitude—and it can replace reality to the point of a false existence. And yet, we do it over and over, and we love almost every minute.We, who are called humans, are easily sideswiped off the road of common sense into the dumpster of adventure. I, of all people, can point this out because I spent almost 22 years, and even now—after five years away—I am still going through withdrawals.This is what some call tough love.
