Decision Making

Generative AI Insights for Financial Decision Making

'Excellent' Aaron Bastani 'Provocative ... An entertaining, sweeping read' Financial Times Every leader comes to power promising growth: think back to the campaigns of Boris, Truss, Sunak, Starmer, Trump. Yet real-term income hasn't improved in the UK since 2008. Across the West, growth has stagnated for well over a decade, leading to cost of living crises, political instability and rising social tensions. Is real economic growth still possible? And with the climate emergency accelerating beyond repair, should we still be pushing for it? In Icarus Economics, acclaimed economist John Rapley argues that the problem of growth is inherently tied up with the climate crisis. We often assume that poor countries will bear the brunt of climate change, pandemics, and other exogenous shocks, but this book argues the opposite: western societies have more wealth and capital to lose and are less inherently resilient. In this book, he shows us how rich countries can grow their own economies by helping poor countries to decarbonise - and in the process, mitigate the effects of climate change.

Growth, Degrowth, and the Future of the West

Icarus Economics

Financial Markets & Institutions

Freeing ourselves from the top-down control of tech oligarchs Coded power is social control—power over other people’s relationships. This can be seen today in the top-down control over data exerted by tech oligarchs—billionaires like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. DOGE’s takeover of key government institutions early in the second Trump administration was a particularly blatant example of an attempt to exercise coded power by tapping into critical information systems of government. In this book, Co-Pierre Georg and Katharina Pistor call for empowering data producers—that is, all of us who use AI and search engines, or post on social media—rather than those who control proprietary data infrastructures. Georg, an economist, and Pistor, a legal scholar, explain that coded power emerges when some assert power over the fabric that shapes society. Unchecked, it penetrates deeply into social relationships in order to advance the interests of the coders—the oligarchs—and their clients. Legal coded power goes back centuries. Digital coded power and its effect on our society have become apparent only recently. It is exercised as despotic power imposed by the will of the coders to deny data producers the right to self-determination. Choices about digital technology made in the past, Georg and Pistor argue, were often driven by libertarian ideology rather than technological inevitability. They propose an alternative, decentralized structure, aided by the blockchain and new privacy-enhancing technologies, in which data control is assumed jointly by data creators—and data sharing is determined by creators’ willingness to do so rather than the dictates of digital despots.

Every Landlord's Guide to Managing Property

Independent, inflation-targeting central banks were supposed to deliver stable prices, financial stability and lasting prosperity. Instead, they have presided over financial crises, stagnant growth, rising inequality and the return of inflation. Yet policy makers and politicians have proved remarkably reluctant to challenge the orthodoxy. Why has this model proved so resilient-and what should replace it? In The Gods That Failed, economist Josh Ryan-Collins argues that today's macroeconomic policy framework rests on five powerful myths that have shaped economic thinking since the 1980s. From the "natural" rate of interest and the management of inflation expectations to efficient financial markets and the taboos surrounding fiscal dominance and credit policy, these ideas continue to constrain policymakers even as the evidence against them becomes overwhelming. Blending colourful economic history, cutting-edge research and vivid real-world examples, Ryan-Collins opens-up the often opaque and technocratic world of monetary and financial policy for a wide readership and illustrates its fundamental flaws. At a time of repeated economic and financial shocks, ecological breakdown and geopolitical instability, The Gods That Failed argues that rebuilding our economies will require a wholesale rethinking of how central banks, governments and financial institutions work together to manage money, credit and the macroeconomy.

AI and quantum computing are two disruptive forces about to push financial services and the banking industry over the edge, demanding an unprecedented transformation. They are not fleeting trends but fundamental disruptors that will reshape the core of banking and finance. Authored by a senior Swiss banking technology executive, this practical guide helps board members and senior leaders turn disruption into a disciplined strategic agenda. It offers a rare insider perspective and a roadmap for navigating these seismic shifts. Bridging the gap between technological innovation and practical application, this book equips leaders with the tools to address the challenges and opportunities posed by AI and quantum computing. It features a thorough review of the latest business opportunities and threats associated with these technologies, alongside foresight-based strategic decision frameworks to guide prioritisation. Real-world case studies and an online companion with 125 AI use cases tailored for banks provide actionable insights. It also introduces an original AI Adoption Maturity Model and a Hybrid Enterprise Reference Architecture to ensure safe integration of internal systems with external frontier models. Finally, it provides two detailed multi-year roadmaps, offering a clear path to harness AI's potential and to prepare for a post-quantum future through crypto agility.Rather than offering abstract predictions or generic solutions, this book presents financial-services leaders with the frameworks, choices, and implementation path they need to act with confidence at a moment when waiting is no longer an option.

This book explores the transformative potential of parallel intelligence in enhancing humanitarian services for sustainability, with a focus on leveraging the latest advancements in artificial intelligence. It brings together cutting-edge technologies like agentic intelligence, autonomous intelligence, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), and Search-Augmented Generation and Extension (SAGE), and along with digital human technologies, to reimagine and re-optimize service systems across a range of sectors. It examines how these technologies can transform service systems across diverse sectors, including education, healthcare, emergency management, agriculture, tourism, and ecology. By integrating real-time data, AI models, and feedback loops, the book outlines how these parallel systems can improve the effectiveness, resilience, and sustainability of services. It also highlights the role of blockchain, smart contracts, and Decentralized Autonomous/Agentic Organizations (DAO) in optimizing distributed humanitarian operations. As AI continues to advance, the author raises the crucial question of what the best model for sustainable and reliable humanitarian services should look like. Through this exploration, he argues that parallel intelligence offers new, innovative solutions to address global challenges, making service systems more adaptive and efficient.This book appeals to a broad audience, including academics, researchers, data scientists, practitioners, students, educators, and general public interested in the intersection of service science and AI. It offers critical insights and practical strategies, making it a valuable resource for those working in scientific research for services, LLMs, and the development of intelligent systems.
