In this book, Amy Webb reveals the pervasive, invisible ways in which the foundations of AI - the people working on the system, their motivations, the technology itself - is broken. Within our lifetimes, AI will, by design, begin to behave unpredictably, thinking and acting in ways which defy human logic. The big nine corporations may be inadvertently building and enabling vast arrays of intelligent systems that don't share our motivations, desires, or hopes for the future of humanity.

Ghost Written

This book is just bad. The audio is fine, but the content is garbage. 90% sure the author did not write any of this. There are contradictory points of view from chapter to chapter. Like each one was written by someone else with different experience. Orrrr, she was just making it up as she went along.

Land a lighthouse deal to catapult your startup over the chasm of early adopters and into the land of new opportunities with trillion-dollar companies. Navigate to the Lighthouse explains how to do that, using strategic business development as a competitive advantage. When you approach the chasm and look at lighthouses shining on potential trajectory-changing deals, two questions likely cross your mind: Should I invest the time and resources to pursue what seem like impossible deals? If so, what’s the path to get there—strategically and tactically? Kurt Davis has the answers.

This book doesn't entirely overlap with my business model but it is already useful for some of the clients I've worked with when talking about their products. Even if you're not a SaaS or service provider of any sort, there is still a lot of things that you can pull from for inspiration. Maybe you don't want to go global, but there are definitely tips and realistic expectations around landing big deals. Specifically, for me, it codified what acceptable struggle looks like and what progress towards success looks like. I'll tell you right now, that took a load off my mind.
There were some noticeable things in the audio, like different quality where they had to post edit the narration, but overall, the speakers were well spoken and enjoyable to listen to.

From 2016 to 2020, Jacob Helberg led Google’s global internal product policy efforts to combat disinformation and foreign interference. During this time, he found himself in the midst of what can only be described as a quickly escalating two-front technology cold war between democracy and autocracy.

A great primer on Propaganda 2.0 and The Cyber War

I prefer books like Peter Theil's "Zero to One" where every page is basically just pure information coming at you at a million miles per hour. But this book is a bit different. Jacob is clearly well versed in this, but he tells it like a story. There is a lot of personal life injected into this book. Which is fine, I tend to do that in comments and emails quite regularly. Oddly though. I'm not a fan of that style.
HOWEVER, this book is still amazing. There is a lot of "behind the curtain information" that, to be honest, pisses you off if you care. I'm a bit lost at what we should be doing to combat this. I think, first and foremost, Americans need to know about these dangers. It should be taught in schools for the next generation to be more robust against these attacks.
Give it a read, you'll be introduced to a dangerous new world and like me, you'll probably be thinking about this everyday trying to figure out how we can fight back.
