How Algorithms Secretly Run Your...

Felix Crane

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.
Reveal the invisible algorithmic systems making crucial decisions about your life without your knowledge, input, or ability to appeal their judgments. This essential audiobook exposes how automated decision-making determines what information you see, what opportunities you receive, what prices you pay, and how institutions treat you based on calculations you never see. Learn how credit algorithms, hiring software, insurance models, and content recommendation systems shape your life trajectory more than personal choices while remaining completely opaque. The narrator reveals the biases embedded in algorithmic systems that perpetuate discrimination while appearing objective and the accountability voids that prevent challenging automated decisions affecting your life. Discover how tech companies optimize engagement algorithms knowing they promote misinformation, outrage, and addiction while presenting themselves as neutral platforms. Understand why algorithmic transparency remains impossible to achieve given corporate secrecy, technical complexity, and regulatory failure that leaves citizens subject to systems they cannot examine. This audiobook draws from computer scientists, investigative journalists, and algorithm researchers documenting hidden systems that govern modern life. Learn strategies for recognizing algorithmic influence, minimizing harmful exposure, and advocating for accountability in automated decision-making. Essential listening for anyone living in the digital age who wants to understand the invisible forces shaping their reality and what limited options exist for reclaiming agency from automated systems.

Birding Under the Influence -...

Dorian Anderson

At a personal and professional crossroads, a man resets his life and finds sobriety, love, and 618 bird species, cycling his way to a very Big Year. In Birding Under the Influence, Dorian Anderson, a neuroscience researcher on a pressure-filled life trajectory, walks away from the world of elite institutions, research labs, and academic publishing. In doing so, he falls in love and discovers he has freed himself to embrace his lifelong passion for birding. A North American Big Year—a continent-spanning adventure in which a birder attempts to see as many species as possible in twelve months—is a massive undertaking under any circumstances. But doing it on a bike while maintaining sobriety? That’s next level. As Dorian pedals across the country, describing the birds he sees, he confronts the challenges of long-distance cycling: treacherous weather, punctured tires, speeding cars, and injury. He encounters eccentric characters, blistering blacktop, dreary hotel rooms, snarling dogs, and an endless sea of smoking tailpipes. He also confronts his past struggles with alcohol, drugs, and risky behaviors that began in high school and followed him into adulthood. Birding Under the Influence is a candid, honest look at Dorian’s double life of academic accomplishment and addiction. While his journey to recovery is simultaneously poignant and inspiring, it is ultimately his love of birds and nature that provides the scaffolding to build a new and radically different life.
