Beschreibung

'Compelling.' Reni Eddo-Lodge
A 'must-read book for 2022', as picked by Stylist


More than one fifth of children want to become influencers and it's easy to understand why. What if you could escape economic uncertainty by winning the internet's attention? What if you could turn the adoration of your social media followers into a lucrative livelihood?


But as Symeon Brown explores in this searing exposé, the reality is much murkier. From IRL streamers in LA to Brazilian butt lifts, from sex workers on OnlyFans to fraudulent cryptocurrency schemes, these are the incredible stories that lurk behind the filtered selfies and gleaming smiles.


Exposing the fraud, exploitation, bribery, and dishonesty at the core of the influencer model, Get Rich or Lie Trying asks if our digital rat race is costing us too much. Revealing a broken economy resembling a pyramid scheme, this incredible blend of reportage and analysis will captivate and horrify you in equal measure.

    The universe is a vast and mysterious place, full of wonders and unknowns. At its core, there are two forces that define the very fabric of existence: light and darkness. These forces are not just opposites; they are intertwined in a constant struggle that shapes the cosmos. This battle between energy and darkness is a fundamental aspect of the universe, influencing everything from the birth of stars to the formation of galaxies. 
    Light, in its most basic form, is energy. It travels through space at incredible speeds, illuminating everything it touches. It powers the stars and sustains life on planets. Without light, the universe would be a cold and dark place, devoid of warmth and energy. But light’s role is not just to bring warmth and life; it also plays a crucial part in the balance of the universe. Light can be a force of creation, but it can also be a force of destruction. It can burn, blind, and erase everything in its path. 
    On the opposite side of the spectrum is darkness. Darkness is not just the absence of light; it is a powerful force in its own right. It is often associated with the unknown, with mystery, and with the things that lie beyond the reach of our understanding. Darkness is present in the vastness of space, in the black holes that devour everything in their proximity, and in the cold reaches of the universe where light cannot penetrate. While darkness may seem passive, it is far from it. It is a force that can shape the universe, exerting influence over the formation of galaxies, stars, and even life itself.

    Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the modern world. It is ubiquitous—in our homes and offices, in the present and most certainly in the future. Today, we encounter AI as our distant ancestors once encountered fire. If we manage AI well, it will become a force for good, lighting the way to many transformative inventions. If we deploy it thoughtlessly, it will advance beyond our control. If we wield it for destruction, it will fan the flames of a new kind of war, one that holds democracy in the balance. As AI policy experts Ben Buchanan and Andrew Imbrie show in The New Fire, few choices are more urgent—or more fascinating—than how we harness this technology and for what purpose. 
     
     
      
    The new fire has three sparks: data, algorithms, and computing power. These components fuel viral disinformation campaigns, new hacking tools, and military weapons that once seemed like science fiction. To autocrats, AI offers the prospect of centralized control at home and asymmetric advantages in combat. It is easy to assume that democracies, bound by ethical constraints and disjointed in their approach, will be unable to keep up. But such a dystopia is hardly preordained. Combining an incisive understanding of technology with shrewd geopolitical analysis, Buchanan and Imbrie show how AI can work for democracy. With the right approach, technology need not favor tyranny.

    Sleep is one of the most essential aspects of human health, yet it is often overlooked or misunderstood. While many people acknowledge the need for rest, few truly understand how deeply sleep influences every part of their lives. From mental clarity and emotional stability to immune function and longevity, sleep is the foundation of overall well-being. Unfortunately, in today’s fast-paced world, quality sleep is becoming increasingly rare, leading to a silent but serious health crisis.  
      
    Modern lifestyles are filled with distractions and demands that make proper rest difficult. The widespread use of technology, high-stress work environments, and irregular schedules have led to chronic sleep deprivation. Many people cut back on sleep to make time for work, socializing, or entertainment, assuming they can function on fewer hours. In reality, even small amounts of sleep loss accumulate over time, affecting cognitive performance, mood, and physical health. Studies have linked poor sleep to weight gain, heart disease, diabetes, and a weakened immune system, proving that rest is not just a luxury but a necessity.  
      
    Beyond physical health, sleep plays a critical role in brain function and emotional well-being. During sleep, the brain processes information, consolidates memories, and regulates emotions. Those who consistently get enough rest tend to have better focus, improved decision-making skills, and greater emotional resilience. On the other hand, sleep deprivation can contribute to anxiety, depression, and increased stress levels, making everyday challenges feel even more overwhelming.
