A sharp history of journalism's digital unraveling in the age of algorithms. In the past three decades, the battle between big tech and big journalism has reshaped how we consume the news. Jason Whittaker delves into how tech giants outmaneuvered traditional media companies, siphoning off advertising revenue and audience attention. As journalism struggled to adapt, social media platforms evolved from utopian public spaces into breeding grounds for misinformation and fake news, eroding public trust. The influence of billionaires further complicated the digital ecosystem, swaying public opinion and exercising direct political power, of which previous media moguls could only dream. More recently, AI has begun to revolutionize content creation, distribution, and consumption. Overall, this thirty-year period has witnessed a tangled mix of progress, contention, and disinformation. Incorporating stories about The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Los Angeles Times, Bloomberg, and many other media outlets from around the world, and discussing key figures and companies in big tech and AI like Facebook/Meta, Cambridge Analytica, Google, Microsoft, Twitter/X and Elon Musk, Edward Snowden, Jakob Uszkoreit, OpenAI, ChatGPT, DeepSeek, and more, Whittaker provides an incisive examination of the frequently combative relations of these two industries and the uncertain future of the news in the digital age.

Big Tech v. Big Journalism

You Want What We've Got

The Gods Must Be Crazy!

Two civilizations are building the same technology through entirely different logics. One is gilded and theatrical. The other is turbid and relentless. Most investors are watching only one river.
Dragon vs. Eagle is a contrarian strategic forecast that exposes how China's autonomous vehicle manufacturing machine-led by BYD, XPeng, Huawei, and a new generation of pure-play operators like WeRide and Pony.ai-is quietly overtaking the American robotaxi narrative built around Waymo, Tesla, and a $1.5 trillion valuation illusion.
Using the proprietary M¿y¿ Meter, this autonomous vehicle investment guide reveals the staggering per-vehicle valuation gap: Waymo at ~$50 million per vehicle versus WeRide at ~$3 million. The Dinosaur Meter scores the fragility of legacy automakers-Ford (83.4), Volkswagen (79.1), Toyota (70.6)-against a refinancing wall that the capital markets have not yet priced.
At the heart of the analysis is the 'Industrialiser' archetype: how China's state-directed electric vehicle supply chain has driven hardware costs from $150,000 to $150, producing a massive 'Data Monsoon' from BYD's God's Eye ADAS system-now generating 150 million kilometers of driving data per day across 21+ million vehicles. This is not a car story. It is the birth of the first mass-produced embodied intelligence platform.
The book maps the Interdependency Web connecting five nodes-autonomous mobility, logistics, robotics, distributed energy, and financial data rails-and provides a complete investment framework: the Quarter-Kelly position-sizing model, the Six Temples taxonomy, and Three Monsoons scenario planning for 2030-2035.
For investors navigating the US-China technology war, tariff policy, semiconductor export controls, and the LiDAR cost curve revolution, Dragon vs. Eagle delivers what no other book does: the boatman's manual for reading both rivers at once.
From the author of The Gods Must Be Crazy II: A Rooseveltian Renaissance for Trump 2.0, with three decades of Fortune 10 strategic consulting across 40+ countries, Six Sigma Master Black Belt and TOGAF9 credentials, and field expertise spanning the geopolitical risk landscape from BIG4 boardrooms to the ancient ritual traditions of Kerala.

The Trillion-Dollar Autonomous Demolition Derby

The Gods Must Be Crazy! DRAGON vs. EAGLE

Pull up a chair. If you've found your way to these pages, there is a good chance you are carrying a quiet, heavy question in your heart. Perhaps it visits you during that familiar "Sunday Night Dread," when the hum in your belly tells you your nervous system is bracing for another week of Outlook invites and digital noise. You've played by the script: you have the title, the salary, and the glowing LinkedIn recommendations. Yet, you feel like a "Company Persona"- always consuming but never quite full.We are standing at a threshold unlike any other in human history. We are being told that Artificial Intelligence is coming for our "transactional" work-the coding, the calculating, and the organizing. It is a world that has asked us to function like machines for decades, and many of us have tried to oblige. But here is the radical truth this book invites you to consider: the antidote to AI anxiety is not upskilling in technology, but "down-skilling" into your essential humanity.This book is not a manual on how to outrun the algorithm. You cannot win a race against a machine that doesn't need to sleep or eat. Instead, this is a guide for an "Identity Detox." We are going to lovingly separate your deep, eternal self from the temporary role you play at work. We are going to acknowledge that your job title-no matter how impressive-is not your soul.Throughout our time together, we will explore:The Shift from Processing to Presencing: Moving away from the reactive survival mode of the "Speedy Lung" and into a state where you can sense the future that actually wants to emerge.
The "Spark Joy" Audit: Using an essentialist mindset to delegate "Robot Work" to the machines, freeing you to inhabit your true Zone of Genius.
The Wisdom of the Void: Learning how to trust the space between "trapeze bars"-that mist-filled gap where you have let go of the old identity but have not yet grasped the new.
Right Livelihood 2.0: Finding your Ikigai-the intersection of what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for in a world of wisdom and synthesis.
The Bodhisattva in the Boardroom: Discovering how to be "in the system, but not of it," using non-attachment as the ultimate career superpower.

You are not a broken machine that needs constant optimization. You are Naturally Creative, Resourceful, and Whole. This journey is about "Detoxing" your professional identity until you are no longer trying to be a better robot, but a more complete human.The world doesn't need more busy people; it needs more people who have come alive. So, let the dust of the day settle. Take a breath. It is time to stop being a "Human Resource" and start being a human being again.Welcome to your real life.

Finding Heart-Led Career in the Age of AI

A Soulful Transition

Sustainable Finance

This edited book explores the intersection of inclusivity, ethics, and innovation in the financial sector. It examines the impact of global and regional regulations, highlighting both compliance challenges and opportunities for innovation. The book discusses strategies for making financial services accessible to underrepresented groups, the role of emerging technologies like AI and blockchain in shaping regulatory practices, and the importance of ethical standards and strong governance. It also discusses the progress of global standardization efforts and offers guidelines for developing inclusive financial policies. Real-world case studies and practical tools are provided to help apply these concepts in the real world.

Navigating Regulatory Frameworks and Technological Advancements

Regulation and Inclusivity in Finance and Accounting

Over the last twenty-five years, the concept of per-sonhood has become central to many contentious debates. Corporations have won free speech protections, as if they were individuals. The right to life or freedom has been claimed on behalf of fetuses, trees, and elephants. The fund of human rights is spilling over into the nonhuman. The Problem of Personhood reveals the unsettling consequences of granting rights to imagined persons, such as Sophia the robot citizen or New Zealand’s Whanganui River. Synthesizing the political and phil­osophical debates on personhood and drawing on a varied cast of thinkers that includes Simone Weil, Hannah Arendt, and Dr. Seuss, Lisa Siraganian un­covers the disturbing impact of this contemporary development. Awarding rights to robots and rivers all too easily becomes a legal tool to turn people into capital. When robot Sophia is made a citizen, "she" is transformed into a subject in the law without the corre­sponding legal duties that protect us from her. At the root of this trend is the US Supreme Court’s Citizens United ruling that grants First Amendment rights to corporations as if they were individuals. The result has not been the transformation of things into humans so much as humans into things, when animals and the environment would be better protected with reference to our humanity rather than to theirs.

Giving Rights to Trees, Corporations and Robots

The Problem of Personhood

A whip-smart, funny, and timely memoir about one worker’s 12 years at Google and her journey from buying in to buying out, and being radicalized in a sea of false promises, fake work, and bad bosses.Hugely clever and uncanny, Don't Be Evil&nbsp;is a biting look back at a surreal era in tech, asking: How do we disentangle ourselves from work, when work demands our whole self? For readers of How to Do Nothing and Careless People, Stapleton's candid book grapples with what it means to find a sense of identity and power beyond our jobs, in a culture that tells us our career is who we are.

This book responds to the need to distinguish human creations from those produced by AI. It does so by tracing human attributes of authorship and inventorship in statutory requirements for protection and ownership in European copyright and patent laws. Its main contribution lies in exposing shortcomings in how the laws are applied in the UK, Germany, and France. It shows that the human origin of creations is traditionally inferred from their expressive form or technical character. Given the advancements in AI, such inferences are no longer legitimate. What is more, these shortcomings may eventually lead to granting copyright or patent protection where none is lawfully permitted or sufficiently justified. To remedy the situation, this book offers doctrinal and conceptual amendments and proposes law reforms to implement them. This book guides authorities, practitioners, and students through the main arguments of the debate concerning copyright and patents for objects entirely or partly generated by AI. It also makes original contributions to advance the ongoing academic and policy debates on AI and intellectual property law.

There is always a dark side, and taxation in its international dimension is no less. Pecunia, being the cash, drives it more than philosophical principles like justice or solidarity. International taxpayers, whether individuals or corporations, do not feel the same obligations vis à vis the society where they temporarily live, work and produce their wealth as if they would feel if they were permanently integrated in a country. The reader of this textbook will be conducted within the technicalities of international taxation by way of an original perspective on philosophy, politics and economics (PPE) affording (i) who has the right to exercise the power to tax by examining the criteria to determine the jurisdiction to tax both in the worldwide and territorial system, (ii) how to exercise the power to tax, through tax return or withholding tax, (iii) what to tax among active and passive income within inbound and outbound taxation, (iv) how much to tax through the transfer pricing, (v) international taxation as part of international law, (vi) international tax treaties, and finally (vii) the BEPS projects that represent the very last evolution in the field. Scandals, leaks as a James Bond movie, aggressive tax planning techniques and related case law, involving high-net-worth individuals as well as multinational corporations, bring the reader to discover that each single State belonging to the international community acts as a chess player before the international tax chessboard observing as pieces its own economy, its own society, and balancing any tax policy decision with possible reactions of domestic taxpayers that could move away, those foreign taxpayers that could decide to move in, and possible retaliations from other States.
The ambition is to get the reader convinced that, as the Sicilian Tancredi Falconeri warns his uncle Don Fabrizio Corbera, Prince of Salina, in the masterpiece book "The Leopard" of Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, "everything must change because everything remains as it is", and only exploring what is behind the stage of international taxation clarifies how this important piece of social science really works.
