This is the story of a battle that changed the course of the Civil War and called upon two men—Robert E. Lee and Abraham Lincoln—to summon every ounce of their courage, intelligence, and bravery. The Battle of Gettysburg is known as one of the defining moments of the American Civil War. It was the bloodiest battle of this conflict, resulting in over 50,000 combined casualties over three fierce days. In early July 1863, two great armies converged at the small town of Gettysburg.

On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Technical knowledge alone isn't enough - increase your software development income by leveling up your soft skills Early in his software developer career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone isn't enough to break through to the next income level - developers need "soft skills" like the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates and coworkers in working toward a common goal.

Story
Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

In April 1956, a refitted oil tanker carried 58 shipping containers from Newark to Houston. From that modest beginning, container shipping developed into a huge industry that made the boom in global trade possible. The Box tells the dramatic story of the container's creation, the decade of struggle before it was widely adopted, and the sweeping economic consequences of the sharp fall in transportation costs that containerization brought about.

Story
Run a Google search for “black girls” - what will you find? “Big Booty” and other sexually explicit terms are likely to come up as top search terms. But, if you type in “white girls”, the results are radically different. The suggested porn sites and un-moderated discussions about “why black women are so sassy” or “why black women are so angry” presents a disturbing portrait of black womanhood in modern society. In Algorithms of Oppression, Safiya Umoja Noble challenges the idea that search engines like Google offer an equal playing field for all forms of ideas, identities, and activities.

In Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras will examine how technology - more specifically, age-inappropriate screen tech, with all of its glowing ubiquity - has profoundly affected the brains of an entire generation. Brain imaging research is showing that stimulating glowing screens are as dopaminergic (dopamine activating) to the brain’s pleasure center as sex. And a growing mountain of clinical research correlates screen tech with disorders like ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, increased aggression, and even psychosis.

Nikola Tesla was a major contributor to the electrical revolution that transformed daily life at the turn of the 20th century. His inventions, patents, and theoretical work formed the basis of modern AC electricity, and contributed to the development of radio and television. Like his competitor Thomas Edison, Tesla was one of America's first celebrity scientists, enjoying the company of New York high society and dazzling the likes of Mark Twain with his electrical demonstrations. An astute self-promoter and gifted showman, he cultivated a public image of the eccentric genius.

a short and critical guide
It's a short book, just a little over half hour, but it's very clear, and gives very hands on operational guide to using AI and ChatGPT. you can basically follow the step by steps to start using ChatGPT, and optimize it. There are also some examples in it that you can try, just follow the voice. You can have the software running at the side, while listening to the audio. It's like having an experienced tutor showing you how to do these complicated tasks standing right next to you.

A good place for the reluctant to start
I agree with the introduction that suggested if we adopt AI we are coordinating our efforts with technology. Even computer programmers are writing code faster with ChatGPT. I now have an account and can write much faster. Saves time on mundane tasks too. Looking forward to trying more stuff. Thanks for the quick start.

Absolute Beginner Guide
GREAT if you are an absolute beginner to technology and AI, but not as great if you are looking for new tips or practical strategies with Chat GPT. I found it showcased a broad way to use it but does not go deep into any specific examples or ways even the author uses it. The last chapter on ethical concerns was a helpful reminder to check for accuracy and know what AI is and isn't from a human perspective.

Beginners Guide to ChatGPT
It was a good representation of an introduction to ChatGPT. I liked how it felt as if I was being informed by long lost uncle. The narration was good and the information was clear. The beginning kind of scared me about how the world is going to change tremendously. Not all doom and gloom though! If you are 60 years or older and would like to learn about ChatGPT, this is the first guide you should purchase!

New realities of artificial intelligence
I have to say AI is a fascinating topic for me. I monitor with interest the latest news and updates in this sphere. The Machine Whisperer is a great guide if you are new to AiIand Chat GPT. It will tell you how to integrate it into your daily life and work. If you are a more advanced user of AI technology, this book will only touch the surface. I found it useful and informative but would like it to be longer and feel on the topic more deeply. I hope the author will write another book that will continue the exploration of AI.
