Die rasante Entwicklung von künstlicher Intelligenz, die ersten Quantencomputer und die Automatisierung von immer weiteren Lebens- und Arbeitsbereichen wird massive Auswirkungen auf unsere Zukunft und unser Wirtschaftsmodell haben. Algorithmen werden zu Autoritäten und diese werden unvermeidlich im Wettbewerb gegeneinander antreten. Aber Technologie allein kann und wird nicht die Antwort auf alle unsere Herausforderungen sein. Noch sind wir Menschen die Treiber und Bindeglieder, die unsere Umwelt, Gesellschaft, Wirtschaft und Realität steuern können.

James Lovelock, der Schöpfer der Gaia-Hypothese und berühmteste Ökodenker unserer Zeit, ist im vergangenen Juli 100 Jahre alt geworden - und hat ein neues Buch mit einer spektakulären These veröffentlicht. Darin prophezeit er gelassen das Ende des Anthropozäns und den Anbruch einer neuen Zeit: Mit unserer Gegenwart hat das "Novozän" begonnen, das Zeitalter der Hyperintelligenz. Schon sehr bald wird aus der künstlichen Intelligenz eine neue Art von Lebewesen hervorgehen: Cyborgs, die 10000 mal schneller sein werden als wir.

Imagine an imminent future where American voters are bombarded with personalized political messages from every smart device - at home, in cars, on sidewalks; the digital infosphere. Big Data so fine-tuned, no two voters hear the same proposition. You come home to a hologrammatic, AI-powered Donald Trump chatbot perched in your kitchen, asking personal questions - knowing everywhere you went, everything you searched, and how much you spent on lunch. We’re rushing toward this dystopia right now.

Science history is chock full of world-changing innovations that initially faced skepticism and ridicule for being too unconventional: light bulbs, cars, and home computers are just a few examples. In this audiobook, we take a look at the latest out-of-the-box ideas to tackle today’s biggest challenges, including so-called sponge cities designed to combat flooding, technology that mimics photosynthesis to produce fuel, modifying bacteria’s genetic circuits to treat genetic diseases, and much more.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, trends already underway toward the future of work and the gig economy rapidly and unexpectedly accelerated. Physical isolation, travel restrictions, and social distancing challenged organizations to rethink how work gets done and by whom, with ramifications that will stretch beyond the pandemic. Punching the Clock explores how well workers are likely to both navigate and adapt to this new future of work, using the best of psychological science as a guide.

In the revolutionary excitement of the 1960s, young people around the world called for a radical shift away from the old industrial order, imagining a future of technological liberation and unfettered prosperity. Industrial society did collapse, and a digital economy has risen to take its place, yet many are left feeling marginalized and deprived of the possibility of a better life. The Inglorious Years explores the many ways we have been let down by the rising tide of technology, showing how our new interconnectivity is not fulfilling its promise.

Knowing what really matters at work and in life and acting on what you know are two very different things. Unless you practice what you know, applying what matters most in a consistent pattern, you’ll always find yourself coming up short. Though your own human tendencies undermine your ability to live at your best, universal truths can help you stay focused on what is most important and ultimately provide real and lasting happiness. Patterned After Excellence walks you through what is true in a way that will empower you, your company, your employees, and everyone around you.

For years we’ve been inundated with bleak forecasts about the future.

With the art of a storyteller, Reese synthesizes history, technology, and sociology into an exciting, fast-moving narrative that shows how technological change has had dramatic effects on humanity in the past.
