Advanced Fintech and Financial Innovation

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

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.

A Story of AI and the Human Mind

The Domestication

This is the updated and expanded edition of the only radical, multidisciplinary, international introduction to intellectual property in its socio-economic contexts. Bringing together voices from law, sociology, economics, political science, and cultural studies from across the Global North and Global South, experts and activists Mat Callahan and Jim Rogers offer a detailed history and analysis of IP before asking critical questions designed to underscore its importance in the broader struggle between capital and the commons. What are the broader implications of IP, whether for agribusiness, pharmaceuticals, education, or entertainment? Is IP law a fundamental pillar of our culture, or has it been used to protect and assert the ownership of, and thus limit, the spread of ideas and creativity? With a chapter structure moving from historical and theoretical foundations to industry-specific conflicts and policy analysis, this book covers the breadth and depth of IP areas, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, as well as emerging issues such as digital rights and biotechnology. Key features include: - voluminous, up-to-date case studies, both Western and non-Western; - an extensive, jargon-busting list of abbreviations of specialized or technical terms; - a new chapter on copyright and socialism; - revisions and updates accounting for the seismic impacts of artificial intelligence. This is a foundational must-read for all researchers, students, and activists interested in critical analyses of IP laws and policies--not just their legal frameworks, but also their broader social, economic, and political implications.

A Radical Guide to the Past, Present, and Future of the Ownership of Ideas

Rethinking Intellectual Property

Algorithmic Management: Artificial Intelligence and the Transformation of Organizations is the first comprehensive textbook designed to prepare management students to engage critically and responsibly with artificial intelligence in organizations. Bringing together classical management theory, contemporary AI applications, and systematic power analysis, the book equips future managers to both harness AI's potential and confront its risks.Structured in three parts, the book begins with foundational frameworks-socio-technical systems theory, technology and society perspectives, and core management theories reinterpreted for the AI era. It then examines applications across all major management functions-Marketing, HR, Finance, Operations, Supply Chain, and Strategy-using over 30 real-world case studies drawn from different industries, parts of the world, and types of organizations from multinational corporations to nonprofits and social ventures. The final section addresses organizational design, leadership, governance, and the future of algorithmic organizations. Throughout, pedagogical features-learning objectives, vignettes, discussion questions, toolkits, and ethical dilemmas-make the book classroom-ready and adaptable across MBA, undergraduate, and executive education settings. The text advances an approach of pragmatic criticality: AI is neither celebrated uncritically nor rejected outright but treated as a socio-technical phenomenon requiring managerial judgment, ethical reflection, and contextual awareness.By bridging management theory, functional practice, and critical perspectives, this book fills a critical market gap and is positioned to become the definitive teaching resource on AI and management for business education worldwide.

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.

Reciprocity begins with a simple but unsettling question: why have we come to believe that human beings are naturally self-interested, competitive and acquisitive? This galvanising, perspective-shifting book dismantles the myth of Homo economicus to show us the way towards a world whose realities align with our true selves.Drawing on a variety of disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, evolutionary biology, psychology, economics and social epidemiology, Richard Wilkinson demonstrates that the characteristics which we assume to be our human nature are in fact effects of the market societies we live in. He traces how various systems of exchange have created profoundly different forms of social life throughout the course of history, shaping our behaviours, motivations, and the kinds of people we become. Though it may often feel like it, the avarice and oppressions that defines the twenty-first century are not an unchangeable reality we simply have to live with.The book explains why inequality, status competition and consumerism hold so much power over us and reveals the depths to which these forces are entwined with the ever-rising crises of mental illness, political polarisation and environmental destruction. Rather than asking how we can make individuals behave better, it makes a compelling case for restructuring our societies to make life happier, meaningful and more fulfilling for one and all.Rigorously researched, bracingly practical and full of passion and hope in equal measure, Reciprocity offers a bold reinterpretation of the world we live in. It equips us with the necessary tools to look beyond and remake it in our very own, amiably human image.
