  We’ve heard it all before: AI will upend industries, kill jobs and remake everything from healthcare to art. But between the hype and the hand-wringing lies a simpler, more pressing question: Is AI actually useful? And if so, useful for what, and for whom? 
  In How to Make AI Useful, MIT researcher Dr Bryan Reimer and Swedish futurologist Magnus Lindkvist cut through the noise. Blending decades of research, trendspotting and hands-on experience, they chart AI’s journey from dazzling gimmick to disruptive force—and now to indispensable tool. 
  This isn’t another book about robot overlords or utopian tech dreams. Instead, it’s a rough guide to AI’s messy middle—the phase where machines meet human complexity. From automating the tedious to amplifying creativity, Reimer and Lindkvist show how to harness AI’s potential for real progress, long after today’s bubble bursts.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  The world of securities trading can seem intimidating to newcomers, filled with complex terminology, rapidly changing numbers, and an overwhelming array of investment options. However, at its core, securities trading is simply the process of buying and selling financial instruments that represent ownership stakes, debt obligations, or rights to ownership in various entities. Understanding this fundamental concept is the first step toward becoming a confident and successful trader. 
  Securities encompass a broad range of financial instruments, including stocks, bonds, options, futures, and exchange-traded funds. Each type of security serves different purposes and carries varying levels of risk and potential reward. Stocks represent ownership shares in companies, giving holders voting rights and potential dividends. Bonds are debt instruments issued by corporations or governments, providing regular interest payments to holders. Options grant the right to buy or sell securities at predetermined prices, while futures contracts obligate parties to trade assets at specific future dates. 
  The financial markets operate as vast networks where buyers and sellers meet to exchange these securities. Primary markets facilitate the initial issuance of new securities, such as when companies go public through initial public offerings. Secondary markets, where most retail trading occurs, allow investors to trade existing securities among themselves. These markets provide liquidity, price discovery, and efficient capital allocation throughout the economy.

  We constantly encounter complex problems at home, in our places of work, and in society at large. Even if we had all the time and money in the world, sometimes no good solution can be found. So, what should we do, especially when we can’t wait? The answer: a workaround.For ages, global corporations have been lecturing small organizations and not-for-profits on how to get things done. As it turns out, it should have been the other way around. In this groundbreaking audiobook, award-winning researcher Paulo Savaget shows how the most valuable lessons about problem-solving can be learned from the scrappiest groups.Savaget draws most of his examples from small organizations dedicated to social action that have made an art form out of subverting the status quo and have proved themselves adept at achieving massive wins with minimal resources. Through his research, Savaget identified the four workarounds that these groups commonly employ: the piggyback, the loophole, the roundabout, and the next best. With vivid and fascinating examples from his life and travels, he demonstrates how each one works and how to know which one to use when.The Four Workarounds shows how seemingly intractable problems—from public urination to the challenges of delivering lifesaving medicine to remote communities—were addressed using unconventional tactics. Some of the world’s biggest and most admired companies are already using Savaget’s research to transform the ways they do business. And these same lessons can also revolutionize the ways we approach the challenges we all encounter every day of our lives.A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books.
