  Illicit digital activity is a substantial and growing problem. Extremists' use of social media over the past decade or so has raised increasing concern among governments and media corporations alike. In Digital Grooming Nuria Lorenzo-Dus analyzes manipulation practices in digital spaces that are situated at, or beyond, the boundaries of law. Lorenzo-Dus identifies and examines in detail the online discourse of adults luring children for sexual abuse and exploitation (digital sexual grooming); extreme ideology groups aligning others to their views (digital ideological grooming); and drug dealers soliciting business in crypto markets (digital commercial grooming). With sophisticated style and stance analyses of large and varied datasets, the book reveals that digital sexual, ideological, and commercial grooming practices have much in common. Three stances—expertise, openness, and avidity—scaffold this manipulative work, which constructs groomers and their targets as sharing a homogenous identity. 
   
   
   
  By shedding new light on grooming practices, this book provides a key resource for discourse analysis, forensic linguistics, communication, and media studies, as well as for practitioners aiming to counter online grooming through policy changes, detection software, and prevention-focused training to promote digital civility and safety.

  African Artificial Intelligence...

  Artificial intelligence (AI) is upending life, work, and play as we know it, and it's only just getting started. The rise of AI is a milestone on par with the discovery of fire, the invention of the wheel, and the creation of the internet. In short, AI is going to change everything. For some, that's an exciting prospect. For others, it's terrifying. However you feel about AI, there's no escaping it, whether you're in a global metropolis or a farmer in rural KwaZulu-Natal.
  Dr Mark Nasila has been watching AI's ascent for over a decade, studying its effects on everything from agriculture and aviation to healthcare, education, entertainment, crime prevention, energy management, policy creation, finance, and anything in between, and applying them to his role at one of South Africa's most successful financial institutions, First National Bank, a division of FirstRand Group.
  African Artificial Intelligence is a comprehensive and fascinating journey, tracing the rise of AI and its evolution into the emerging technology underpinning all others – from connected devices and smart chatbots to the metaverse. Mark combines unexpected use cases and tales of cutting-edge innovation with a unique and potent argument: harnessing AI to solve Africa's problems requires embracing it from an African perspective.
  African nations can't afford to simply import AI solutions from afar. Instead, Mark contends, they need to rework, remix, and refine AI so it's able to meet uniquely African challenges in uniquely African ways, and to take advantage of the once-in-a-generation opportunity AI represents for every industry, sector, and person, everywhere.

  The Importance of Being Educable...

  If we hope to share our planet successfully with one another and the AI systems we are creating, we must reflect on who we are, how we got here, and where we are heading. The Importance of Being Educable puts forward a provocative new exploration of the extraordinary facility of humans to absorb and apply knowledge. The remarkable "educability" of the human brain can be understood as an information processing ability. It sets our species apart, enables the civilization we have, and gives us the power and potential to set our planet on a steady course. While we can readily absorb systems of thought about worlds of experience beyond our own, we struggle to judge correctly what information we should trust. 
   
   
   
  In this visionary book, Leslie Valiant argues that understanding the nature of our own educability is crucial to safeguarding our future. After breaking down how we process information to learn and apply knowledge, and drawing comparisons with other animals and AI systems, he explains why education should be humankind's central preoccupation. 
   
   
   
  Will the unique capability that has been so foundational to our achievements and civilization continue to drive our progress, or will we fall victim to our vulnerabilities? If we want to protect our collective future, we must better understand and prioritize the importance of being educable.

  City Networks - Connectivity and...

  Connectivity is a critical element in shaping the development and functionality of modern cities. As urbanization accelerates, the ability to connect people, services, and infrastructure becomes fundamental in ensuring that cities grow in a sustainable, efficient, and equitable manner. Whether through transportation, digital infrastructure, or social systems, connectivity determines the overall effectiveness of urban environments. It not only enables economic growth and innovation but also enhances the quality of life for urban residents, facilitating better access to services, opportunities, and resources. As cities evolve, improving connectivity has become one of the most pressing priorities for urban planners, policymakers, and developers. 
  Historically, the evolution of urban connectivity was rooted in physical infrastructure. Roads, railways, and ports formed the foundation for the development of cities, enabling the movement of goods, services, and people. These early forms of connectivity allowed urban centers to thrive, driving economic activity and creating spaces for cultural exchange. As cities grew, so did their need for more complex and advanced networks. In the 21st century, digital connectivity has added a new layer of importance to urban development. High-speed internet, mobile technology, and digital communication systems have transformed how cities function, providing real-time access to information and services that were previously unavailable. 
  The concept of the "smart city" highlights the profound impact of digital connectivity on urban life. By integrating technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence, and big data, cities can improve everything from traffic management to resource distribution. Smart city solutions enable cities to operate more efficiently and sustainably, optimizing the use of energy, water, and other resources while reducing waste and pollution.
