Das Buch, das Mark Zuckerberg verbieten willDer sehr unterhaltsame und zugleich hochexplosive Bericht einer jungen Frau aus dem Inneren von Facebook. Nach der Veröffentlichung hat Mark Zuckerberg sofort versucht, das Buch zu verbieten – bislang ohne Erfolg. Es schoss auf Platz eins der Bestsellerliste und wurde von der New York Times zu einem der besten Bücher des Jahres erkoren. Nun darf es endlich auf Deutsch erscheinen.Sarah Wynn-Williams beginnt als junge Frau, bei Facebook zu arbeiten, und macht schnell Karriere. Unterhaltsam und sehr selbstironisch erzählt sie davon, wie es ist, plötzlich führende Politiker aus aller Welt zu treffen, mit Mark Zuckerberg im Privatjet zu wichtigen Terminen rund um den Globus zu fliegen. Und davon, wie sie schnell die Doppelmoral und Frauenfeindlichkeit an der Spitze des Unternehmens zu spüren beginnt, wie es auf Forderungen aus Diktaturen eingeht und wie Zuckerberg reagierte, als er erfuhr, dass Donald Trump die Wahl gewonnen hat. Sarah Wynn-Williams schildert, was passiert, wenn wenige Menschen unvorstellbare Macht in ihren Händen haben. Ihr Buch zeigt, wie die Verantwortlichen von Facebook mit zunehmender Macht immer weniger Verantwortung übernehmen – und welche Folgen das für uns alle hat.
 »Niederschmetternd ... lustig ... höchst unterhaltsam ... Eine Bridget-Jones-artige Geschichte einer jungen Frau, die die unglaublichsten Situationen erlebt.«

Vom Ende der Meinungsfreiheit in den USA

Mein Traumjob bei Facebook und wie ich alle meine Ideale verlor

Governing AI is about getting AI right. Building upon AI scholarship in science and technology studies, technology law, business ethics, and computer science, it documents potential risks and actual harms associated with AI, lists proposed solutions to AI-related problems around the world, and assesses their impact. The book presents a vast range of theoretical debates and empirical evidence to document how and how well technical solutions, business self-regulation, and legal regulation work. It is a call to think inside and outside the box. Technical solutions, business self-regulation, and especially legal regulation can mitigate and even eliminate some of the potential risks and actual harms arising from the development and use of AI. However, the long-term health of the relationship between technology and society depends on whether ordinary people are empowered to participate in making informed decisions to govern the future of technology - AI included.

A Primer

Governing AI

"Read this book to understand human nature." (Preet Bharara) • "An amazing story, well told.” (Anderson Cooper) • "A masterful telling." (Dahlia Lithwick) From CNN legal analyst Elliot Williams, a revelatory account of how one man, four teenagers, and a struggling city collided over race, vigilantism, and public safety . . . exposing the fault lines of a nation On a dirty New York subway car on December 22, 1984, Bernhard Goetz shot Barry Allen, Darrell Cabey, Troy Canty, and James Ramseur, four teenagers from the Bronx, at point blank range. Goetz claimed they were going to mug him; the teens claim that one of them had simply asked for five dollars. Crime was at an all-time high. So was racial tension. Was Goetz, who was white, a hero who finally fought back? Or a bigot whose itchy trigger finger seriously wounded three unarmed black kids and condemned a fourth to irreversible brain damage? By the time Goetz went on trial for quadruple attempted murder, the “Subway Vigilante” saga had become a global sensation, and New Yorkers across race and class were split over whether he deserved decades in prison…or a medal. In Five Bullets, Elliot Williams vaults back to gritty 1980s Manhattan and reexamines the first major true-crime story of the cable news era. Drawing on archives and interviews with many main characters, including Goetz, Williams presents a masterful and vivid tale that also tells the origin stories of larger-than-life figures: Al Sharpton, a polarizing young local activist rocketing to national prominence; Rudy Giuliani, a rising-star prosecutor with an important decision to make; the NRA, which needed a poster boy for its transition from hunting club to political juggernaut; and Rupert Murdoch, whose new purchase, the New York Post, grew his empire by keeping a scary story in the headlines. A shocking account of a pivotal moment in our history, Five Bullets demonstrates why, in order to understand today’s debates about race, crime, safety, and the media, it’s imperative to reflect on what went down in the subway four decades ago. As Williams’s powerful narrative reveals, it was not just Goetz on trial, but the conscience of a nation.

Five Bullets

From the author of Good Grief, an intimate collection of poems and prose which offers a glimpse into the mind of a highly sensitive person, or empath.In a world that has become increasingly difficult to navigate—physically, mentally, and spiritually—having empathy is more important than ever. But what if you have a highly sensitive mind? Highly sensitive people, known as empaths, have an expanded capacity to feel not only one set of emotions but also those of others. They experience life more deeply than the average person, leaving them more susceptible to nervous system dysregulation, emotional trauma, and abuse.Divided into three parts—Body, Mind, and Soul—Brianna Pastor’s intimate collection of poems invites us to explore what it’s like to discover high sensitivity in adulthood and view life through an empathetic lens. Hopefully, by deepening our understanding of sensitivity and how it affects others, we can move one step closer to a more connected, healed world.I have a bellyachefrom constantly absorbingall this pain.&nbsp;I’d ask you to refrain from telling me,but your eyes already have.

Bellyache

A new paradigm based on quantum probability that can model stock markets and price options—and also upends classical quantitative finance. In The Quantum Stock Market, David Orrell combines theory and new empirical findings to argue for a new approach to finance based on quantum probability. The main finding, a property called q-variance, may be unique in finance in that it was discovered as the result of a prediction, affects financial markets in general, has no tunable parameter, and has important consequences for a range of topics including the pricing of financial options. The property, which somehow eluded detection for over a century, has been verified by experts in the field. And the fact that it is incompatible with classical finance—which is perhaps why it went undetected—suggests that the field must be reinvented. The aim of this book is therefore nothing less than to initiate a paradigm shift in finance. As with any new work that challenges existing methods, the ideas have already received considerable pushback from a range of sources, including leaders in the field of finance, along with physicists skeptical of applying quantum probability outside its traditional domain. Written in an interdisciplinary style that mixes mathematical equations, data analysis, and informed comment on the field of finance, it should be read by anyone—including students, academics, and practitioners—who wants to be on the right side of a paradigm shift.

'A must-read account from a heroic reporter who has taken on the world's most dangerous tech company' - Chris Miller, award-winning author of Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology 'Engaging . . . this excellent book lays out the damage of letting arbitrary political power intervene in business' - Financial Times It's on your phone. It's on your children's phones. It's on more than a billion screens across the planet, serving up joy, creativity and connection. But behind the slick feed of the world's most addictive app lies ruthless ambition and a global war for control. This is the dramatic, untold story of TikTok. Charting its rise from obscurity into the world's most valuable startup, Emily Baker-White reveals how TikTok's visionary founder, ByteDance CEO Zhang Yiming, reshaped the global internet from a place where you searched for information to one where information comes to you. Billions of users were soon hooked by the most effective recommendation algorithm in the world. But there was a cost to such success. Soon, TikTok was embroiled in accusations of surveillance, censorship and user manipulation, attracting controversy from India and Europe to the US. After Baker-White - a Harvard-trained lawyer and investigative reporter - revealed that Chinese engineers could access Americans' private information, a team of ByteDance employees even used the app to track her location. Based on unprecedented access to internal documents, leaked recordings and accounts from whistle-blowers inside the company, Every Screen on the Planet reveals how TikTok became trapped between two superpowers, desperate to survive. It is the story of how your attention became the world's moннннst valuable - and dangerous - commodity. 'Revealing. A story about power, control and the hidden battles shaping what we see online' - Parmy Olson, bestselling author of Supremacy: AI, ChatGPT and the Race That Will Change the World

Yet it can also be a vital political tool; a communication style that strengthens relationships and can even act a life-saving measure.Tracing gossip's roots from old wives' tales and the witch trials to reality TV, whisper networks and defamation lawsuits, Beyond Beliefasks, have we lost the ability to listen; to hear, and to believe women who speak up and speak out?A joyous reclamation of women's words, this book is for anyone who's ever uttered the words, 'You won't believe this...'

A Defence of Gossip and the Women Who Do it

Beyond Belief

A unique look at crisis leadership and the hard but invaluable lessons that can be learned in difficult and uncertain times. Our fascination with leadership runs deep and has done so for centuries - just witness the books on Nelson, Churchill and Thatcher. But what exactly are the attributes and competencies that separate those who lead effectively from those who won't, don't or can't? For many people, the acid test of true leadership comes during moments of crisis, when the stakes are highest and the decisions most difficult. It's no surprise, then, that our fascination with stories of leaders overcoming great adversity is endless. This interest has been exacerbated in recent years as every organization in the world has found itself in a crisis at some level, whether due to a collapse in sales, an unexpected spike in demand, a logistics nightmare or the sheer uncertainty that the Covid-19 pandemic wrought. Leading from the Frontline offers multiple perspectives of leadership from across multiple types of crisis. Each chapter tells the story of a leader who steered their organization through a particularly tumultuous period. It looks at the challenges they faced, the decisions they were forced to make, the personal pressures they encountered, the lessons they learned and the mistakes they made. It also examines how the crisis they responded to subsequently changed their organization or the environment in which they operate. Including issues of a medical, socio-political, environmental and military nature, while featuring a range of reputational crises case studies, Leading from the Frontline is essential reading for any leader to prepare their organization for uncertain futures.
