   The Singularity Is Nearer: When We Merge with AI by Ray Kurzweil

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/506083 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/506083) to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Singularity Is Nearer: When We Merge with AI Author: Ray Kurzweil Narrator: Adam Barr Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 25 minutes Release date: June 25, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.88 of Total 8 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Computers & Technology Publisher's Summary: The noted inventor and futurist’s successor to his landmark book The Singularity Is Near explores how technology will transform the human race in the decades to come Since it was first published in 2005, Ray Kurzweil’s The Singularity Is Near and its vision of an exponential future have spawned a worldwide movement. Kurzweil's predictions about technological advancements have largely come true, with concepts like AI, intelligent machines, and biotechnology now widely familiar to the public. In this entirely new book Ray Kurzweil brings a fresh perspective to advances toward the Singularity—assessing his 1999 prediction that AI will reach human level intelligence by 2029 and examining the exponential growth of technology—that, in the near future, will expand human intelligence a millionfold and change human life forever. Among the topics he discusses are rebuilding the world, atom by atom with devices like nanobots; radical life extension beyond the current age limit of 120; reinventing intelligence by connecting our brains to the cloud; how exponential technologies are propelling innovation forward in all industries and improving all aspects of our well-being such as declining poverty and violence; and the growth of renewable energy and 3-D printing. He also considers the potential perils of biotechnology, nanotechnology, and artificial intelligence, including such topics of current controversy as how AI will impact employment and the safety of autonomous cars, and 'After Life' technology, which aims to virtually revive deceased individuals through a combination of their data and DNA. The culmination of six decades of research on artificial intelligence, The Singularity Is Nearer is Ray Kurzweil’s crowning contribution to the story of this science and the revolution that is to come. * This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF with illustrations and graphs from the book.

   The Sugar Girls of Love Lane: Tales of Love, Loss and Friendship from Tate & Lyle's Liverpool Refinery by Duncan Barrett, Nuala Calvi

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/488622 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/488622) to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Sugar Girls of Love Lane: Tales of Love, Loss and Friendship from Tate & Lyle's Liverpool Refinery Author: Duncan Barrett, Nuala Calvi Narrator: Samantha Robinson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 12 minutes Release date: April 25, 2024 Genres: Computers & Technology Publisher's Summary: In The Sugar Girls of Love Lane, Duncan Barrett and Nuala Calvi, the authors of the Sunday Times bestseller The Sugar Girls, tell the remarkable stories of those who worked at the famous Tate & Lyle factory in Liverpool.   For over a hundred years until it closed in 1981, Henry Tate’s flagship sugar refinery at Love Lane dominated the Liverpool skyline – and was the beating heart of the local community. More than 10,000 workers passed through the doors of the factory during its lifetime, with some families counting four or even five generations of service. Young women leaving school in the post-war years were drawn by the good wages and the unrivalled social life that Tate & Lyle offered. When they arrived, they started at the very bottom, sweeping sugar off the floors, before graduating to packing and weighing by hand. The work was tough, with girls expected to stack heavy bags of sugar onto pallets five feet high, and by the end of the day their arms were aching and their stockings full of sugar dust. But, despite the hot, heavy work, they found their own ways of having fun, and the friendships they formed would last a lifetime. As well as the female friendships, many women met their future husbands at the factory, and expected their own children to follow in their footsteps. Barrett and Calvi's social history of the post-war era casts a warm and nostalgic look back at one of the most iconic factories in the north, bringing back a vanished era of hard work, community spirit and simple pleasures.

   Outrage Machine: How Tech Amplifies Discontent, Disrupts Democracy—And What We Can Do About It by Tobias Rose-Stockwell

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/502955 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/502955) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Outrage Machine: How Tech Amplifies Discontent, Disrupts Democracy—And What We Can Do About It Author: Tobias Rose-Stockwell Narrator: Tobias Rose-Stockwell, Bolton Marsh, Justin Price Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 50 minutes Release date: July 11, 2023 Genres: Computers & Technology Publisher's Summary: An invaluable guide to understanding the underlying machinery and technology that grabs our attention—and keeps us coming back by filling us with rage.   The original internet was not designed to make us upset, distracted, confused, and outraged. But something unexpected happened at the turn of the last decade, when a handful of small features were quietly launched at social media companies with little fanfare. Together, they triggered a cascading set of dramatic changes to how media, politics, and society itself operate—inadvertently creating an Outrage Machine we cannot ignore. Author, designer, and media researcher Tobias Rose-Stockwell shares the defining shifts caused by these technologies, and how they have ignited a society-wide crisis of trust. Drawing from cutting-edge research and vivid personal anecdotes, Rose-Stockwell illustrates how social media has bound us to an unprecedented system of public performance, training us to react rather than reflect, and attack rather than debate. Outrage Machine reveals the triggers and tactics used to exploit our anger, unpacking how these tools hack our deep tribal instincts and psychological vulnerabilities, and how they have become opportunistic platforms for authoritarians and a threat to democratic norms everywhere. But this book is not just about the problem. In a story spanning continents and generations, Rose-Stockwell explores how every new media technology disrupts our ability to make sense of the world, from the printing press to the telegraph, from radio to television. Outrage Machine situates social media within a historical cycle of confusion, violence, and emerging tolerance. Using clear language and powerful illustrations, this book reveals the magnitude of the challenges we face, while offering realistic solutions and a promising pathway out.
