Stars, Ratings, Influencers, and How We Decided What to Trust

Theory Redux

The Dark Forest Theory of the Internet investigates how intelligence-human and artificial-manifests under conditions of secrecy, hostility, and concealment. Departing from Chinese science fiction writer Liu Cixin's dark forest theory, which frames the universe as a hostile terrain filled with predators where transparent communication is foolish and dangerous, the book portrays the internet as a cosmic war machine, teeming with existential tension, nascent AI cults, and deceptive superintelligences. It maps a digital world in which deception is safety, silence is strategy, and new forms of intelligence emerge through obfuscation. Against decades of writing that moralizes or diagnoses online life, this book suggests a colder thesis: that intelligence itself is mutating under pressure, learning to hide, mislead, and manipulate. Humans are both predator and prey in this digital ecosystem of information exchange whose purpose reverberates on a cosmic scale, weaving us into inescapable patterns of violence. When we break with the ideals of dialogue and open expression, what forms of intelligence and morality survive in their absence? Intelligence does not reward the loudest voice, but the most secretive presence. The future belongs to the quietest signal.

The Dark Forest Theory of the Internet

A writing professor asks her students to share a childhood memory. They are stranded: all they can recall are family videos, photos resurfaced by an algorithm--moments already framed before they became memories at all.For the last one hundred years, technology has shaped not only how we communicate but how we experience time itself. But today the amassing of big data, the speed of problem solving, and the ubiquity of smartphones and AI threaten to upend our relationship to space and time. The past returns to us only in curated feeds and automatic reminders: an unceasing, untethered stream of content. Might we, in retaking control of our narrative threads, regain agency over our hours, our days, and the stories of our lives?Claire Messud's urgent manifesto argues that we must recapture our futures from the digital forces that consume us, and reclaim what makes us most human.

Reclaiming the Stories of Our Lives

This book explores the dynamic intersection of digital technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), and their applications across two key business areas: customer loyalty and employee performance. The first part discusses the evolving role of marketing in building customer relationships, with a specific focus on how AI, data analytics, and digital influencers are reshaping consumer behaviors and brand interactions. From optimizing customer engagement through AI and chatbots to the dark side of AI’s influence on consumer trust, this section offers a critical examination of modern marketing trends. The second part of the book shifts toward the integration of AI and digital human resource (HR) strategies to enhance employee well-being and organizational performance. Topics such as gamification, HR analytics, and the role of AI in improving workforce efficiency are discussed, alongside emerging trends like industry 5.0’s impact on HR practices and employee satisfaction. This book provides crucial insights into how businesses can leverage AI-driven solutions not only to retain customers but also to optimize their internal workforce and create sustainable growth.

*WINNER ('SPECIALIST BUSINESS BOOK' CATEGORY), BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS 2026* "Responsible AI isn't just a technical challenge - it's a leadership imperative. This book offers essential guidance for anyone navigating the promise of deploying AI at scale. Read this book to understand how." Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn and bestselling author of Superagency: What Could Possibly Go Right with Our AI Future "Grounded, up-to-date, thorough, actionable - you could read this book, or you could pay consultants gazillions of dollars to tell you something less useful." Stuart Russell OBE, Professor of Computer Science, University of California, Berkeley Governing the Machine is the essential guide to harnessing the transformative potential of AI, while navigating and mitigating its inherent risks. Despite AI's power to innovate daily life and revolutionize organizations, public trust in AI is low. For companies to take full advantage of AI, it is vital that they adopt and communicate a responsible approach in order to build consumer, employee and investor confidence. Governing the Machine provides business leaders with a practical and flexible framework for building comprehensive and robust AI governance. It empowers organizations to reap the benefits, while ensuring that AI is trustworthy, sustainable and a source of opportunity and profit rather than liability and harm. Drawing on their vast experience advising leading global companies, the authors demystify: · The process of defining AI principles and policies · Recognizing and assessing risks · Approaches for developing safeguards · Selecting the right technical tools and training · Evolving global AI regulations, laws and policies, including the EU AI Act and those in the US, UK and other key regions Whether you're just beginning your AI journey or assessing your organization's approach, this book is your essential guide to seizing the opportunity - and avoiding the pitfalls - of AI systems.

'Engaging . . . this excellent book lays out the damage of letting arbitrary political power intervene in business' - Financial Times '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 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. 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. 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 China and the USA, 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

In this fresh and friendly introduction to the key concepts, debates and theories of digital media, Simon Lindgren explores what it means to live in a digital society.

Digital Media and Society

A short, blistering gut punch of a novel, Jackson Alone is at turns satirical and deadpan, angry and tender - a frank exploration of identity, race, and queerness in contemporary Japan. Nobody at the corporate offices of Athletius Japan knows much about the massage therapist, Jackson, but rumours abound. He used to work as a model. He likes to party. He's mixed race: half-Japanese, half-somewhere-in-Africa-n. He might be gay. Fuelling the gossip is the sudden appearance of a violent, pornographic video featuring a man who looks like a lot like Jackson. When Jackson serendipitously meets three other queer mixed-race guys, he learns he's not the only one being targeted. Together they concoct a plan: find out who's responsible and, in the meantime, exploit the fact that nobody can seem to tell them apart to trick people who've wronged them. From an Akutagawa prize winning author, Jackson Alone asks complex questions about how we see ourselves and how we see others, as well as what it really means to get revenge.

The #MeToo movement created more opportunities for women to speak up about sexual assault. But we are also living in a time when "fake news" and "alternative facts" call into question the very nature of truth.

This troubling paradox is at the heart of this compelling book. The convergence of #MeToo and the crisis of post-truth is used to explore the experiences of women and people of color whose claims around issues of sexual violence are often held in doubt. Banet-Weiser and Higgins investigate how the gendered and racialized logics of "believability" are defined and contested within media culture, proposing that a mediated "economy of believability" is the context in which public bids for truth about sexual violence are made, negotiated, and authorized today.
