Experience algorithmic ghosting, risk profiling, and digital erasure — all based on real-world systems that are already shaping our present.

In their groundbreaking book Human + Machine, Accenture technology leaders Paul Daugherty and H. James Wilson showed how leading organizations use the power of human-machine collaboration to transform their businesses and their bottom lines. Now those companies and other pioneers across industries are reshaping the very nature of innovation. In Radically Human, Daugherty and Wilson show this profound shift - how artificial intelligence is becoming less artificial and more intelligent.

Why is the internet so broken, and what could ever possibly fix it? In Internet for the People, leading tech writer Ben Tarnoff offers an answer. The internet is broken, he argues, because it is owned by private firms and run for profit. Google annihilates your privacy and Facebook amplifies right-wing propaganda because it is profitable to do so. But the internet wasn't always like this. Tarnoff tells the story of the privatization that made the modern internet, and which set in motion the crises that consume it today. It's time to demand an internet by and for the people.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence and neuroscience, we stand at the precipice of a revolutionary understanding of how intelligence itself operates. The concept of "Data Cortex" represents more than just a metaphor—it embodies the fundamental principles that govern how information is processed, stored, and utilized in both biological and artificial systems. This audiobook explores the intricate relationships between the human brain's cortical structures and the data processing systems we create.

AI-Powered Customer Experience, The Future of Call Center Excellence. Future belongs to organizations that understand how to measure what matters: customer lifetime value, emotional satisfaction, effort reduction, and the seamless orchestration of human and artificial intelligence working together.
