Ray Kurzweil, the bold futurist and author of the New York Times best seller The Singularity Is Near, is arguably today’s most influential technological visionary. A pioneering inventor and theorist, he has explored for decades how artificial intelligence can enrich and expand human capabilities. Now, in his much-anticipated How to Create a Mind, he takes this exploration to the next step: reverse-engineering the brain to understand precisely how it works, then applying that knowledge to create vastly intelligent machines.

The missing piece to the puzzle
Revisado: 11-27-18
This book is enlightening for its analytical way of explaining successful phenomenons and cases of people that gained fame and popularity.
Although I have to keep in mind that everything this book has explained is not all there is to “success” there are many other factors, but this book definitely explained one layer of success that people can use strategically to their advantage in things they do, materials they learn and businesses they want to succeed in.

Enjoyable, but not worth to worship
Revisado: 06-20-18
I like stories in general and this is one of them stories that give you a good listen. This book I would say is generally for people who just want to learn about Nike and what it took for it to become what it is now. It’s ok overall, not a must read I would say.

It's old, but it's still gold
Revisado: 06-10-18
I'm sure most people already read the hard copy of this book, and I would say the audiobook version seemed like from the 90's cassette tape also. But regardless, the material here is timeless.

Thank god for Ray Dalio
Revisado: 06-09-18
I feel there's A LOT of information contained in this 16 hour book, and it probably should have been a 30+ hour book or even a whole academic book itself. Ray Dalio really selflessly put in everything he has learned in this book. I'd say that for people that want to cling on to one TRUE book, this would be that book that can benefit people for a lifetime.
Something else: I want to say, being Ray Dalio is inhumane. I say this because of his business practices, because the meticulous way he analyzes and conducts his professional life. To perfectly do what he has done, you must either be a robot, or something close to it. Calculate not only your risk/reward, but your everyday decisions and physically recording them and go back to them to find a pattern, and do this every single day for 20+ years. I don't think anyone but Ray Dalio himself has the monstrous discipline and unwavering focus to do that.
The man is A BEAST.

The foremost authority on innovation and growth presents a path-breaking book every company needs to transform innovation from a game of chance to one in which they develop products and services customers not only want to buy but are willing to pay premium prices for. How do companies know how to grow? How can they create products that they are sure customers want to buy? Can innovation be more than a game of hit and miss? Harvard Business School professor Clayton Christensen has the answer.

Great book, but not really for the current me.
Revisado: 06-09-18
I really liked how the author explained the Job theory and how to utilize this theory. I said that this book is great to gain some valuable knowledge from, but not for me because all of the practical examples are from the starting point of a middle to higher management level person's position. However, I am still inspired by the job theory and I can already tell how to do basic utilization of this theory in other things, not just a corporate product or big company things.
Something else: after I have finished about 5 hours of the book, I feel I already have a very good understanding of the Job theory, however, the whole book dedicates 7 something hours to say about the same thing, so I did get a little annoyed toward the end and felt that this book was longer than it should've been.
