Ivanov A: The AI Wealth Formula

The AI Wealth Formula

The Future Rich

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the 21st century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.

You have everything you need to start leading right where you are. Real influence starts here.

Daily Habits for Leading from Any Level

90 Days to Grow Your Influence

The next choice we make is the last chance we have. Ten thousand years ago, wild cats wandered into a human grain store. Over generations, gorged with a plentiful supply of prey, they traded their raw instincts for a life of dependency as our household pets. Today, domestic cats are more comfortable than ever but they can no longer hunt effectively. Their brains are 16% smaller than their distant ancestors. They are domesticated. AI is turning the modern world into a cognitive grain store. And we are the cats. In this groundbreaking and vital book, leading AI researcher and campaigner James F. Ryan charts our relationship with transformative technologies - from writing to AI - and explains why this time it's different. Large language models like ChatGPT are not just tools, but are remaking our brains and eroding our ability to think. From the workplace and our relationships to our schools and universities, we face an urgent battle to safeguard human thought. The Domestication sets out the evidence, the imposing challenge we face, and how we respond.

AI for Financial Sustainability

Turn enterprise AI into a source of strategic insight, not just productivity gains.The AI Gap by leading AI expert and keynote speaker Richard Foster-Fletcher shows business and technology leaders how to unlock greater value from enterprise AI by changing the structures, processes and culture surrounding it. Organizations invest in AI expecting new intelligence and transformative insights. Yet AI is often introduced through procurement, security, legal and compliance systems designed for standard software, restricting its potential before it can deliver on that promise. This book explains why this gap persists and what organizations must change to close it. You'll learn how to: - Identify organizational barriers limiting the value of AI - Move beyond productivity-focused AI implementation - Create conditions where AI can generate deeper insights - Enable employees to explore, experiment and challenge established thinking &gt;The AI Gap equips leaders to rethink AI implementation, create space for experimentation and turn artificial intelligence into a powerful driver of organizational insight and long-term business value. Themes include: enterprise AI, AI implementation, AI strategy, business transformation, organizational culture, AI innovation

How Business Decisions Expand What AI Can Do

The AI Gap

**This edition will be released in March 2027. If you want to get a copy ahead of then, have a look at our hardback edition, released in May 2026.** 'If you're worried about wasting your life, read this book.' Rutger Bregman, author of Humankind A ridiculously in-depth guide to finding a fulfilling and impactful career in an age of AI. You have about 80,000 hours in your career: 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, for 40 years. This means your choice of career is the most important decision you'll ever make. Choose well, and you can have a more rewarding, interesting life, and also help solve some of the world's most pressing problems. Choose poorly, and you could waste decades. So what should you do? Most advice is based on no research, instead offering (misleading) platitudes like 'follow your passion'. It's surprisingly out of date, focusing on traditional paths rather than those most likely to thrive in an age of AI. And if you want to help others, the advice is even more simplistic: telling you to choose careers like nurse or doctor, when there are paths in which almost anyone can save more lives. In fact, some careers have hundreds of times more impact than others, but most of us have no idea which ones. Benjamin Todd is the founder of 80,000 Hours, a non-profit that's spent over ten years researching how to have a meaningful and impactful career. Here he introduces a tried-and-tested toolkit framework that has already led thousands of people to change their path. It covers:<ul><li>What really makes for a dream job, and why finding it probably doesn't involve 'following your passion'.</li><li>How to identify which global problems are most pressing, and why they might involve AI as much as climate change.</li><li>Which roles are likely to be automated, and how to ensure yours isn't among them.</li></ul> It's also full of practical tips and tools. You'll come away with a plan to use your 80,000 hours in a way that's rewarding and fulfils your potential to make a difference. 'This career guide is among the most thoughtful and grounded I've seen.' Cal Newport, author of Deep Work 'A remarkably rigorous guide about how to find that perfect career for you.' Ali Abdaal, author of Feel-Good Productivity 'Based on evidence and good sense, not platitudes.' Steven Pinker, author of The Better Angels of our Nature 'The most informative book you can read if you're stuck trying to make one of life's most important decisions.' Hannah Ritchie, author of Not the End of the World

International Series in Operations Research & Management Science

This book presents a rigorous, practitioner-ready framework for determining when interventional causal claims can be validly drawn from observational data. By integrating potential outcomes (PO), structural causal models (SCMs), directed acyclic graphs (DAGs), quasi-experimental and longitudinal designs, information-theoretic approaches, and modern machine-learning methods with decision-analytic principles, it identifies necessary conditions for each step of the causal inference process, from defining estimands and identifying causal effects to study design, measurement, estimation, interpretation, robustness, and external validity. The framework is operationalized through practical checklists, tables, diagnostic and falsification tests, and AI-assisted tools, making it accessible across fields such as epidemiology, environmental and occupational health, and regulatory risk analysis. Designed to meet the needs of professionals making high-stakes decisions based on nonexperimental data, the book addresses the lack of clear, testable criteria for credible causal inference. Real-world examples throughout the book illustrate diagnostics, falsification tests, and robustness checks, linking evidence directly to decision-making. Bridging multiple causal frameworks and modern machine-learning methods, it equips readers to assess when data support cause-and-effect conclusions, supporting more responsible, evidence-based policy and risk management.The book offers health risk analysts, epidemiologists, and policy professionals a practical guide to valid causal inference from observational data. It is also ideal for graduate students and workshop participants in data science, decision analysis, risk analysis, and AI/ML applications.

A General Equilibrium Analysis

Tourism, Structural Features and Artificial Intelligence

When was the last time you thought something through by yourself, without a screen? The brain rot happens quietly. You stop drafting emails and start approving them. You cannot answer a question without checking your phone. You stop wrestling with the idea and start accepting the summary. Every shortcut feels like a win until you've outsourced your mind to machines that don't doubt, don't feel, and don't care. The atrophy is subtle; the cost is staggering. It's the promotion lost to the person who can still reason out loud. It's your child freezing at an open-ended question because no one ever let her sit in the discomfort of not knowing. We are becoming a generation that prompts brilliantly and thinks almost nothing, and it feels so good we don't even notice. Use Your Brain is a field guide for sharpening your creativity and original thinking when the generic answer is always a tap away, whether it's in the boardroom or around the kitchen table. From CEOs to artists to students to parents, the most effective navigators of the modern era have one thing in common: they aren't afraid to pick up a new tool, but they know exactly when to put it down and think for themselves. Drawing on years of research, globally-recognized leadership expert Erica Dhawan delivers common-sense habits for protecting your judgment that you can start building tonight. You will learn how to catch yourself on autopilot before you act, how to interrogate an answer that looks finished, how to separate signal from noise under pressure, and how to own a decision instead of laundering it through a machine. The window to keep your edge is still open, but not for long.
