Kniha - autor John Carreyrou, 352 stran, anglicky, brožovaná bez přebalu matná The full inside story of the breathtaking rise and shocking collapse of Theranos, the multibillion-dollar biotech startup, by the prize-winning journalist who first broke the story and pursued it to the end, despite pressure from its charismatic CEO and threats by her lawyers. In 2014, Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes was widely seen as the female Steve Jobs: a brilliant Stanford dropout whose startup "unicorn" promised to revolutionize the medical industry with a machine that would make blood testing significantly faster and easier. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, Theranos sold shares in a fundraising round that valued the company at more than $9 billion, putting Holmes's worth at an estimated $4.7 billion. There was just one problem: The technology didn't work. In Bad Blood, John Carreyrou tells the riveting story of the biggest corporate fraud...

Elektronická kniha - autor Anna Wiener, 328 stran, česky TAJEMSTVÍ A ÚSKALÍ FUNGOVÁNÍ STARTUPŮ | V knize Silicon Valley: Tísnivé údolí předkládá Anna Wiener čtenářům své vzpomínky na práci ve startupech mezi lety 2013 a 2018. Ostře zde kritizuje řadu aspektů startupové kultury a technologického odvětví a přináší zamyšlení nad rolí mobilních aplikací v našem každodenním životě. V roce 2013 ukončila tehdy pětadvacetiletá Anna Wiener práci v literární agentuře v New Yorku a v touze po lepším profesním uplatnění započala svou novou kariéru ve startupu zabývajícím se vývojem aplikace pro čtení e-knih. Po krátké době se odtud přesunula do Silicon Valley nedaleko San Franciska, kde pracovala nejprve v analytickém startupu a později v tehdy ještě málo známé společnosti GitHub, která dnes představuje přední světovou platformu pro vývoj softwaru. Autorka v knize s nadsázkou vykresluje svět startupů a dává nahlédnout do jeho zákulisí. Coby vystudovaná socioložka...

eBook: Dnešní svět se smrštil do velikosti kapsy u kalhot. Na pozadí displejů našich mobilních telefonů bojují neviditelné algoritmy 24 hodin denně o naši pozornost a využívají k tomu nejnovějších vědeckých poznatků z mnoha oborů lidského vědění. Řídí, jaké obsahy se budou kterému uživateli zobrazovat, a aniž bychom si to uvědomovali, ovlivňují tak náš úsudek a jednání, oslabují naši schopnost rozeznat fikci od skutečnosti, lež od pravdy. Pokud nechceme v dnešní realitě jen bloudit, musíme nejprve poznat, jak tyto algoritmy fungují, jakých mechanismů využívají a kde všude na nás působí. V ruce držíte prvního souhrnného průvodce po postfaktickém světě v českém jazyce. Pomůže vám vyznat se v tom, jak fungují algoritmy sociálních sítí a návykový design, jakých skrytých zákoutí lidské mysli využívají. Seznámíte se s fenomény, které se podílejí na informačním chaosu současného světa, v němž se fakta podařilo prohlásit za názory, a tak se pomalu vracíme do doby, kdy ani kulatost Země nebyla věcí faktu, ale pouhého menšinového názoru. Co mají společného prezidentské volby ve Spojených státech, napadení Ukrajiny nebo pandemie covidu-19? Především jsou reflexí jedné důležité skutečnosti. Naše schopnost orientovat se v realitě a odlišit od sebe dojmy, lži, propagandu a fakta se v zahlceném informačním prostoru otřásá v základech. A přitom právě na této schopnosti závisí budoucnost moderního světa, ve kterém žijeme. Pokud této schopnosti pozbydeme, civilizace, jak ji známe, nepřežije.

Kniha - autor Kai-Fu Lee, 292 stran, česky, brožovaná bez přebalu lesklá Překotný vývoj v oblasti umělé inteligence přinese dramatické změny dříve, než mnozí odborníci předpokládali. Motorem vývoje už nejsou ani tak samotné inovace, jako spíše velikost trhu generující obrovské objemy dat, s nimiž technologické firmy pracují. Směr proto začínají udávat dvě velmoci – Čína se svými strategiemi pobídek a vládních programů a Spojené státy, které stále ještě platí za lídra v oblasti technologií. Autor ve své knize na obě velmoci apeluje, aby s rostoucí technologickou mocí převzaly i odpovědnost za změny, kterými lidstvo v nejbližší budoucnosti bude procházet. Předvídá, že největší výzvou budoucnosti nebude převzetí lidské práce umělou inteligencí, ale otázka, co znamená být člověkem.

Mexican history and Mesoamerican mythology meet in this thrilling historical fantasy with magic, intrigue, treachery, romance, and adventure. The empire of Montezuma II has long fallen, a city raised on the bones of Tenochtitlan. None dare whisper the names of their gods- or speak of the magic that once graced the land, of the witches who hunted as jaguars, the warriors who soared as eagles.Until a new name emerges- a curse on the lips of the Spanish, a hero in the hearts of the people. A masked vigilante, a sorceress with a blade. Pantera But that is not her only name.To all who know her, Leonora de Las Casas Tlazohtzin is a glittering jewel of court, promised to the heir of the Spanish throne. The respectable Lady Leonora faints at the sight of blood and would sooner be caught dead than wield a sword…even against a dauntless thief with a cutting smile. No one suspects that Leonora and Pantera are one and the same.Leonora has fooled them all, and, with magic of her ancestors running through her veins, she is nearly invincible- until an ancient prophecy of destruction threatens, and she is forced to decide: surrender the mask or her life. But the legendary Pantera is destined for more than an early grave, and once she discovers the truth of her origins, not even death will stop her.

A Maiden... Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy's life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers. A Duty... The entire kingdom's future rests on Poppy's shoulders, something she's not even quite sure she wants for herself. Because a Maiden has a heart. And a soul. And longing. And when Hawke, a golden-eyed guard honor bound to ensure her Ascension, enters her life, destiny and duty become tangled with desire and need. He incites her anger, makes her question everything she believes in, and tempts her with the forbidden. A Kingdom... Forsaken by the gods and feared by mortals, a fallen kingdom is rising once more, determined to take back what they believe is theirs through violence and vengeance. And as the shadow of those cursed draws closer, the line between what is forbidden and what is right becomes blurred. Poppy is not only on the verge of losing her heart and being found unworthy by the gods, but also her life when every blood-soaked thread that holds her world together begins to unravel.

Centuries before A Game of Thrones, an even greater game began, one that set the skies alight with dragon flame and saw the Seven Kingdoms turned to ash. The thrilling history of the Targaryens comes to life in this masterly work by the author of A Song of Ice and Fire, the inspiration for HBO’s Game of Thrones.With all the fire and fury fans have come to expect from internationally bestselling author George R.R. Martin, this is the first volume of the definitive two-part history of the Targaryens in Westeros. Centuries before the events of A Game of Thrones, House Targaryen – the only family of dragonlords to survive the Doom of Valyria – took up residence on Dragonstone.Fire and Blood begins their tale with the legendary Aegon the Conqueror, creator of the Iron Throne, and goes on to recount the generations of Targaryens who fought to hold that iconic seat, all the way up to the civil war that nearly tore their dynasty apart. What really happened during the Dance of the Dragons? Why was it so deadly to visit Valyria after the Doom? What were Maegor the Cruel’s worst crimes? What was it like in Westeros when dragons ruled the skies? These are but a few of the questions answered in this essential chronicle, as related by a learned maester of the Citadel, and featuring more than eighty all-new black-and-white illustrations by artist Doug Wheatley. With all the scope and grandeur of Gibbon’s The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Fire and Blood is the ultimate game of thrones, giving readers a whole new appreciation for the dynamic, often bloody, and always fascinating history of Westeros.

Taking readers on a global journey through human history, Natasha Tidd examines how lies can change the world around us, from Julius Caesar’s deceptive PR machine to the cover-ups that caused Chernobyl.From forgeries that created centuries worth of conflict and domination, such as The Donation of Constantine, the Protocols of Zion and the mysterious Testament of Peter the Great, to mass political and press cover-ups including Britain’s Boer War concentration camps, a Pulitzer Prize-winning whitewash of the Ukraine Famine and the infamous Dreyfus Affair in France.Alongside these are examinations of how our retellings of history can turn fiction into fact, including The Spanish Inquisition’s deceitful legacy. Plus, there is an in-depth look at how historic lies can still impact our lives today, such as the deadly legacy of America’s Tuskegee Experiment.Meet incredible people, including Jeanne de Clisson who became the fourteenth century's most feared pirate – all because of a lie.A Short History of the World in 50 Lies details the profound impact of this secretive side of history and shows that the truth really is stranger – and far more dangerous – than any fiction.
