  How To Think About AI - A Guide...

  In recent years, there has been massive public and professional interest in Artificial Intelligence. But people are confused about what AI is, what it can and cannot do, what is yet to come, and whether AI is good or bad for humanity and civilization—whether it will provide solutions to mankind's major challenges or become our gravest existential threat. There is also confusion about how we should regulate AI and where we should draw moral boundaries on its use. 
   
   
   
  In How To Think About AI, Richard Susskind draws on his experience of working on AI since the early 1980s. For Susskind, balancing the benefits and threats of artificial intelligence is the defining challenge of our age. He explores the history of AI and possible scenarios for its future. His views on AI are not always conventional. He positions ChatGPT and generative AI as no more than the latest chapter in the ongoing story of AI and claims we are still at the foothills of developments. He argues that to think responsibly about the impact of AI requires us to look well beyond today's technologies, suggesting that not-yet-invented technologies will have far greater impact on us in the 2030s than the tools we have today. This leads Susskind to discuss the possibility of conscious machines, magnificent new AI-enabled virtual worlds, and the impact of AI on the evolution of biological humans.

  Egg - A Dozen Ovatures

  An unconventional history of the world’s largest cellular workhorse, from chickens to penguins, from art to crime, and more. 
  The egg is a paradox―both alive and not alive―and a symbol as old as culture itself. In this wide-ranging and delightful journey through its natural and cultural history, Lizzie Stark explores the egg’s deep meanings, innumerable uses, and metabolic importance through a dozen dazzling specimens. 
  From Mali to Finland, mythologies around the globe have invested the egg with powers of regeneration and fecundity, often ascribing the origin of the world to a cosmic egg. An oracle to Romans, fought over by Gold Rush gangs, used as the foundation of the Clown Egg Registry, and blasted into space, the egg has taken on larger proportions than, say, the ovum of an ostrich. 
  It has starred in global dishes from the Korean comfort food ttukbaegi gyeranjjim to the less regaled yet iconic soft-boiled egg. Stark writes a biography of French-born chef Jacques Pépin through his egg creations, and weaves in her personal experiences, like attempting to make the perfect omelet or trying her hand at pysanky―the Ukrainian art of egg decoration. She also explores her fraught relationship to the eggs in her body due to a familial link to cancer, and shares her delight in becoming a mother. 
  Filled with colorful characters and fascinating morsels, Egg is playful, informative, and guarantees that you’ll never take this delicate ovoid for granted again.

  Ethology - The Science of Animal...

  Ethology is the scientific study of animal behavior, focusing on how species interact with their natural environments. Unlike psychology, which often examines behavior in controlled laboratory settings, ethology emphasizes the observation of animals in their natural habitats. This field seeks to understand the evolutionary significance of behaviors, uncovering how instincts, learning, and environmental influences shape the way animals survive and thrive.  
  The origins of ethology can be traced back to early naturalists who observed and recorded animal behaviors in the wild. However, it was not until the 20th century that ethology emerged as a distinct scientific discipline. Key figures such as Konrad Lorenz, Nikolaas Tinbergen, and Karl von Frisch laid the foundation for modern ethology. Lorenz is best known for his studies on imprinting in birds, demonstrating how young animals develop attachments to their caregivers. Tinbergen’s work established the four key questions of ethology, which explore behavior from different angles: causation, development, function, and evolution. Von Frisch, on the other hand, revolutionized our understanding of animal communication through his research on the intricate dance language of honeybees. Together, their contributions helped establish ethology as a critical field in biology.  
  Studying animal behavior is essential for understanding both the natural world and our own place within it. By examining how different species communicate, cooperate, compete, and reproduce, ethologists gain insights into the complex mechanisms driving life on Earth. This knowledge has practical applications in conservation, helping to protect endangered species by understanding their behavioral needs. It also plays a role in improving animal welfare, from designing better habitats in zoos to enhancing the treatment of domesticated animals.
