Computer Systems

As artificial intelligence and automated systems increasingly shape our courts, hospitals, workplaces, and financial institutions, a fundamental question emerges: Who remains accountable when machines decide? Ethics in Autonomous Systems offers a rigorous yet accessible exploration of moral responsibility in a world governed by algorithms. Rather than treating automation as neutral or inevitable, this book challenges listeners to examine the ethical architecture beneath every line of code and every data-driven decision.

Everyone is talking about AI agents. But do you actually know how to build ones that work in production?

This audiobook delivers a variety of computer networking-related topics to be easily understood by beginners. It focuses on enabling you to create a strong foundation of concepts of some of the most popular topics in this area.

Machine learning systems are both complex and unique. Complex because they consist of many different components and involve many different stakeholders. Unique because they're data dependent, with data varying wildly from one use case to the next. In this book, you'll learn a holistic approach to designing ML systems that are reliable, scalable, maintainable, and adaptive to changing environments and business requirements. Author Chip Huyen, cofounder of Claypot AI, considers each design decision in the context of how it can help your system as a whole achieve its objectives.

Most people are stuck in straight-line thinking. They see problems in isolation, chase quick fixes, and treat outcomes as immediate and unconnected. But the real world doesn’t work that way—it runs on systems. Interconnected causes, delayed effects, feedback loops, hidden incentives, and ripple consequences drive everything around us. This audiobook rewires your brain for systems thinking—one powerful shift at a time. You’ll get 100 clear, actionable strategies.

The internet is a network of physical cables and connections, a web of wires enmeshing the world, linking huge data centres to one another and eventually to us. All are owned by someone, financed by someone, regulated by someone. We refer to the internet as abstract from reality. By doing so, we obscure where the real power lies. In this powerful and necessary book, James Ball sets out on a global journey into the inner workings of the system.

It is a fact that you'll be bombarded with system design interview questions which have become part and parcel of all the software engineering hiring processes.
