  Artificial Intelligence...

  You hear about artificial intelligence everywhere, so why can no one explain what it actually does?
   
  AI shows up in every headline, every product launch, every conversation about what comes next, and you still couldn't say plainly what it is or how it touches your life. Is it a threat, a tool, or both at once? The question just sits there, unanswered.
   
  You don't want a computer science degree. You want a clear guide that connects the ideas to the world you already live in, so the word stops feeling like a mystery.
   
  This is artificial intelligence for beginners, built to make the invisible visible. In this audiobook, you'll discover:
  
  What AI really is - the main types, in plain words instead of jargon.
  Where it's already hiding in your day - email, social media, maps, ride-sharing apps, and smart personal assistants.
  How global giants put it to work - the way companies like Google, IBM, Microsoft, and Intel use AI across IT, marketing, and finance.
  AI that's changing medicine - how firms like Freenome and Zebra Medical Vision read scans and catch disease earlier.
  AI beyond the screen - the way Blue River Technology brings machine learning to farming.
  What "superintelligence" means - the idea Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom warns could one day surpass human thinking in every respect.
  How AI helps keep you safe - the way it studies patterns to flag unusual events in cybersecurity.
  Whether it's a threat or a tool - a clear-eyed look at both sides of the debate.
  
   
  The scale is already staggering. In 2018 alone, Lyft's 1.4 million drivers served 23 million passengers, all of it coordinated by AI working quietly in the background.
   
  You don't need any technical training to keep up. See how AI already shapes the world around you, and a subject that once felt intimidating starts to make plain, practical sense.

  The Day the Universe Goes...

  What happens when the universe runs out of light? 
  Not tomorrow. Not in a billion years. But eventually — according to modern cosmology and the laws of thermodynamics — every star will die. The galaxies will go dark. Black holes will evaporate. Even matter itself may decay into radiation, leaving behind an empty universe drifting toward eternal silence. 
  In this deep, atmospheric journey through the far future of the cosmos, we explore the complete timeline of the universe — from the Cosmic Dark Ages after the Big Bang, through the age of stars and galaxies, all the way to the final Heat Death of reality itself. 
  This audiobook covers: 
  * The birth of the first stars after the Big Bang 
  * The Cosmic Microwave Background 
  * The Stelliferous Era and the slow death of star formation 
  * Red dwarfs and the last surviving stars 
  * White dwarfs, black dwarfs, and proton decay 
  * The Milky Way–Andromeda collision 
  * Black holes and Hawking radiation 
  * The Black Hole Era 
  * Heat Death and maximum entropy 
  * Boltzmann brains and quantum fluctuations 
  * The ultimate fate of time, matter, and consciousness 
  Inspired by real cosmology, astrophysics, thermodynamics, and the latest observations from the James Webb Space Telescope, this is a slow, immersive exploration of the deepest future science can currently imagine. 
  The universe will go dark one day.

  How the World Listens explores our everyday and professional interactions with sound. The book aims to uncover the human relationship with sound across the world and to reveal practical ways in which a better understanding of listening can help us in our daily lives. 
   
   
   
  This book asks how sound is perceived, expressed, and interacted with in both remarkably similar and dramatically different ways across the world. Using findings from a new scientific study, conducted exclusively for this book, we embark on a globe-trotting adventure across more than thirty countries, through exclusive interviews with more than fifty individuals from all walks of life, from acousticians and film composers to human resource managers and costumiers. 
   
   
   
  How the World Listens is essential for anyone with an interest in human relationships with sound, including but not limited to sound design and music composition professionals, teachers, and researchers.

  Taming Silicon Valley - How We...

  On balance, will AI help humanity or harm it? AI could revolutionize science, medicine, and technology, and deliver us a world of abundance and better health. Or it could be a disaster, leading to the downfall of democracy, or even our extinction. In Taming Silicon Valley, Gary Marcus, one of the most trusted voices in AI, explains that we still have a choice. And that the decisions we make now about AI will shape our next century. In this powerful manifesto, Marcus explains how Big Tech is taking advantage of us, how AI could make things much worse, and, most importantly, what we can do to safeguard our democracy, our society, and our future. 
   
   
   
  Marcus explains the potential—and potential risks—of AI in the clearest possible terms and how Big Tech has effectively captured policymakers. He begins by laying out what is lacking in current AI, what the greatest risks of AI are, and how Big Tech has been playing both the public and the government, before digging into why the US government has thus far been ineffective at reining in Big Tech. He then offers real tools, including eight suggestions for what a coherent AI policy should look like—from data rights to layered AI oversight to meaningful tax reform—and closes with how ordinary citizens can push for what is so desperately needed. Taming Silicon Valley is a must-listen for every concerned citizen.
