Book excerpt: Analytics of Life provides the reader with a broad overview of the field of data analytics and artificial intelligence. It provides the layperson an understanding of the various stages of artificial intelligence, the risks and powerful benefits. And it provides a way to look at big data and machine learning that enables us to make the most of this exciting new realm of technology in our day-to-day jobs and our small businesses. Questions you can find answers* * What is artificial intelligence (AI)? * What is the difference between AI, machine learning and data analytics? * Which jobs AI will replace, which jobs are safe from data analytics revolution? * Why data analytics is the best career move? * How can I apply data analytics in my job or small business? Who is this book for? * Managers and business professionals * Marketers, product managers, and business strategists * Entrepreneurs, founders and startups team members * Consultants, advisors and educators * Almost anybody who has an interest in the future According to an article by Cade Metz in The New York Times, "Researchers say computer systems are learning from lots and lots of digitized books and news articles that could bake old attitudes into new technology." Oxford University professor Nick Bostrom argues that if machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control. MIT professor Max Tegmark describes and illuminates the recent, ground-breaking advances in Artificial Intelligence and how it might overtake human intelligence. As Oxford University economist Daniel Susskind points out, technological progress could bring about unprecedented prosperity, solving one of humanity's oldest problems: how to make sure that everyone has enough to live on. Distinguished AI researcher and professor of computer science at UC Berkeley, Russell Stuart suggests that we can rebuild AI on a new foundation, according to which machines are designed to be inherently uncertain about the human preferences they are required to satisfy. Industry experts claim that AI will have a negative impact on blue-collar jobs, but Mert predicts that Americans and Europeans will experience a strong impact on white-collar jobs as well. And Mert also provides research results and a clear description of which jobs will be affected and how soon, which jobs could be enhanced with AI. Analytics of Life also provides solutions and insight into some of the most profound changes to come in human history.

Download or read book The UnNoticed Entrepreneur written by Jim James and published by . This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publicity is the fuel of sales, and yet one of the greatest challenges for entrepreneurs is to get noticed. This book provides ideas from 50 entrepreneurs, experts and technologists on winning publicity for free. Interviews held by public relations expert and international entrepreneur Jim James on the top 10 rated "UnNoticed Entrepreneur" podcast, have been written into a series of 50 articles for the founder of any business or non-profit with an emphasis on practical solutions which can be implemented immediately. The author shares the SPEAKpr methodology which stands for Storification, Personalisation, Engagement, Amplification and Knowledge. This simple 5 stage approach creates a frame work for the business owner to build a simple and structured approach to their public relations. Key concepts in the book include the democratisation of communication due to technology, engagement as a function of content creation and not of scale of budget, and ultimately the positive message that publicity is attainable by the application of a simple process of content creation, channel management and consistency of sharing. The book is structured into 5 parts, each one reflecting the SPEAKpr approach, with thought leadership, technology applications and case studies in each part. Included in the articles are the thoughts of leading podcaster and author John Lee Dumas, branding coach Gerry Foster, and story meister and Park Howell. In addition is the inclusion of technology entrepreneurs covering applications for personalisation at scale, AI content creation and sentiment analysis. Entrepreneurs share how they are building tribes around their content, creating stories for clients in construction, and gaining over 1.5 million views of edumercials made for a fraction of the cost of a conventional studio. Also addressed is the phenomena that getting noticed is more than just a business issue, it's personal. Thymōs is the Greek term for the need for recognition, and in Platonic philosophy is that area of the soul where feelings of pride, indignation, shame etc are located. In his book "The End of History and the Last Man," Francis Fukuyama coined the terms: "Megalothymia" which refers to the need to be recognised as superior to others, and "Isothymia" is the need to be recognised as merely equal to others. In Homeric poems, thymōs is one of a family of terms associated with the internal psychological processes of thought, emotion, volition, and motivation. Today we know that feelings of pride and self-esteem impact levels of the neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain, releasing the "happy chemical" at a biological and sociological level we need to get noticed as people. As entrepreneurs we are the business, we put our heart, souls and bodies into these ventures with all kinds of dreams, and anonymity does nothing to validate our aspirations, nor deliver sales. Anyone who has undertaken investor relations will know that the 3rd party validation of media or analyst coverage can affect valuations, recruitment is easier when candidates have heard of your company, supplier credit terms are better and of course sales pipelines fill up much more quickly. The articles are kept intentionally short for two reasons: a) entrepreneurs don't have a lot of time as we pay for it ourselves b) entrepreneurs don't want to become PR experts, just to learn enough to give directions to others to take the right strategy. This book is a working guide for any entrepreneur who wants to unlock the value in their business, using technology instead of an outside agency, using creativity instead money. The articles show what is being done, and what can be done, and what will be possible in the future to build any business in the world.

Book excerpt: A "highly entertaining history [of] global hustling, cola wars and the marketing savvy that carved a niche for Coke in the American social psyche” (Publishers Weekly). Secret Formula follows the colorful characters who turned a relic from the patent medicine era into a company worth $80 billion. Award-winning reporter Frederick Allen’s engaging account begins with Asa Candler, a nineteenth-century pharmacist in Atlanta who secured the rights to the original Coca-Cola formula and then struggled to get the cocaine out of the recipe. After many tweaks, he finally succeeded in turning a backroom belly-wash into a thriving enterprise. In 1919, an aggressive banker named Ernest Woodruff leveraged a high-risk buyout of the Candlers and installed his son at the helm of the company. Robert Woodruff spent the next six decades guiding Coca-Cola with a single-minded determination that turned the soft drink into a part of the landscape and social fabric of America. Written with unprecedented access to Coca-Cola’s archives, as well as the inner circle and private papers of Woodruff, Allen’s captivating business biography stands as the definitive account of what it took to build America’s most iconic company and one of the world’s greatest business success stories.

Download or read book The Secret of Our Success written by Joseph Henrich and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How our collective intelligence has helped us to evolve and prosper Humans are a puzzling species. On the one hand, we struggle to survive on our own in the wild, often failing to overcome even basic challenges, like obtaining food, building shelters, or avoiding predators. On the other hand, human groups have produced ingenious technologies, sophisticated languages, and complex institutions that have permitted us to successfully expand into a vast range of diverse environments. What has enabled us to dominate the globe, more than any other species, while remaining virtually helpless as lone individuals? This book shows that the secret of our success lies not in our innate intelligence, but in our collective brains—on the ability of human groups to socially interconnect and learn from one another over generations. Drawing insights from lost European explorers, clever chimpanzees, mobile hunter-gatherers, neuroscientific findings, ancient bones, and the human genome, Joseph Henrich demonstrates how our collective brains have propelled our species' genetic evolution and shaped our biology. Our early capacities for learning from others produced many cultural innovations, such as fire, cooking, water containers, plant knowledge, and projectile weapons, which in turn drove the expansion of our brains and altered our physiology, anatomy, and psychology in crucial ways. Later on, some collective brains generated and recombined powerful concepts, such as the lever, wheel, screw, and writing, while also creating the institutions that continue to alter our motivations and perceptions. Henrich shows how our genetics and biology are inextricably interwoven with cultural evolution, and how culture-gene interactions launched our species on an extraordinary evolutionary trajectory. Tracking clues from our ancient past to the present, The Secret of Our Success explores how the evolution of both our cultural and social natures produce a collective intelligence that explains both our species' immense success and the origins of human uniqueness.
