   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: Social Science 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.

   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: Social Science 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.

   Get Rooted: Reclaim Your Soul, Serenity, and Sisterhood Through the Healing Medicine of the Grandmothers by Robyn Moreno

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/509303 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/509303) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Get Rooted: Reclaim Your Soul, Serenity, and Sisterhood Through the Healing Medicine of the Grandmothers Author: Robyn Moreno Narrator: Robyn Moreno Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 47 minutes Release date: June 6, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: In this memoir, manifesto, and manual, discover how the alchemy for real personal transformation lies in digging up your own medicine and tools—and your ancestors are your greatest guides. Anyone scrolling through Robyn Moreno’s social media seeing her on the set of The Today Show; shaking hands with Barack Obama at the White House; speaking on stage at SXSW; and cozying up to celebs like J.Lo and Rihanna would have thought she was living the life. But the truth behind her well-curated snaps was that Robyn was burnt out AF: in the midst of a full-on, mid-life meltdown comprised of that all-too-typical working mom tightrope walk coupled with painful family drama. To save her soul, sanity, and family, Robyn quit her manic #mommyboss existence, and set out on a 260-day spiritual journey based in Aztec and Mayan traditions, studying the medicine of her Mexican grandmothers: curanderismo. She learned about sustos—soul losses—and ser—your true essence. She reconnected with family she hadn’t spoken to in ages, like her 93-year-old great aunt Dora, who shared fantastical stories about her great-grandmother, Mama Natalia, who was a curandera. She took cooking lessons with a tough but tender-hearted Mexican chef who became her surrogate abuela and had tobacco blown up her nose by a Shaman from the Andes. She had dramatic moments with her sisters, her mom, her husband, and herself. And finally, she went into the jungle of Belize and threw herself in a Mayan river in the hope of breaking an ancestral curse. Reckoning with the hidden stories and aspects of her family and her Mexican-American culture that were transforming and heartbreaking brought Robyn to an unshakable understanding of who she is and how she fits into this world. And, by looking to her past to decide which traditions, which medicines, to pass on to her daughters—and which to leave behind—she began to root into the person she was meant to be. Get Rooted shares Robyn’s unforgettable story of reclamation—and offers a path for others to reclaim their own ser.
