Summary

Diving Predators explores the captivating world of air-breathing marine animals that hunt underwater, examining their unique adaptations and crucial role in ocean ecosystems. The book reveals how creatures like penguins, seals, and cormorants have evolved remarkable physiological traits to thrive in challenging aquatic environments. These diving predators demonstrate sensory adaptations, such as enhanced vision, and physiological adaptations that allow them to conserve oxygen and withstand immense pressure.

 
The book progresses logically, starting with the principles of diving physiology, then exploring case studies of predator groups and their hunting methods. The book then considers their ecological role and conservation challenges.

 
By integrating diverse research from behavioral ecology to oceanography, Diving Predators provides a holistic understanding of these animals, highlighting the impact of climate change and overfishing on their survival and foraging behavior.

    As AI takes hold across the planet and wealthy nations seek to position themselves as global leaders of this new technology, the gap is widening between those who benefit from it and those who are subjugated by it. As Rachel Adams shows in this hard-hitting book, growing inequality is the single biggest threat to the transformative potential of AI. Not only is AI built on an unequal global system of power, it stands poised to entrench existing inequities, further consolidating a new age of empire. 
 
 
 
AI's impact on inequality will not be experienced in poorer countries only: it will be felt everywhere. The effects will be seen in intensified international migration as opportunities become increasingly concentrated in wealthier nations; in heightened political instability and populist politics; and in climate-related disasters caused by an industry blind to its environmental impact across supply chains. 
 
 
 
We need to act now to address these issues. Only if the current inequitable trajectory of AI is halted, the incentives changed, and the production and use of AI decentralized from wealthier nations will AI be able to deliver on its promise to build a better world for all.

  • The Wolf - cover

    The Wolf

    The Wolf poem :: was inspired by William Blake's - 'The Tyger'. 
It has the same regular form & meter as The Tyger. 
With tempo and stanza (of the quatrain type), and is about one single animal in the natural world. 
Where it differs from William Blake's poem is that the Poem Tyger has more religious connotations, not surprising for the times in which it was written. 
Whereas 'The Wolf' written by myself, has more of Natures influences. 
It's also about the possible demise totally of the Wolf through man, and a warning of this. 
As we take care of The Wolf and other similiar 'top predator' animals, 
so we automatically take care of the natural habitat that they live in - something that is increasing in peoples consciousness today.
