Condition: Very Good. : En el año 2032, Interconnect, una supercomputadora de inteligencia artificial avanzada, emerge como un faro de esperanza para la humanidad, prometiendo un futuro utópico guiado por algoritmos impecables y conectividad 24/7 para los ciudadanos. Jared Rohde, un académico desilusionado que busca un significado, presencia el inquietante auge del control algorítmico sobre el comportamiento humano. Dividido entre dos realidades, Jared experimenta una agitación psíquica al verse arrastrado a un mundo curado por máquinas que fomenta narrativas de odio y división. Al conocer a un grupo diverso de resistentes "orgánicos", Jared se entera de los métodos diabólicos de Interconnect, orquestados por un presidente hambriento de poder y sustitutos humanos. Juntos, se esfuerzan por interrumpir la oscura influencia de la máquina y su catastrófico impacto en la humanidad. Descubriendo un espacio potencial dentro de la realidad curada que eleva la conciencia humana, Jared se convierte en un cruzado a pesar de sus propias luchas con la psicosis y las experiencias de realidad dividida. En su búsqueda de la verdad y la esperanza, Jared se enfrenta al desalentador reto de liberarse del control de Interconnect sobre la sociedad. Precipice: When Algorithms Triumphed ofrece un viaje convincente e inquietante de 20 años que explora las consecuencias de la creciente dependencia de la humanidad de la inteligencia artificial.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In this unique book Scott A. Bollens combines personal narrative with academic analysis in telling the story of inflammatory nationalistic and ethnic conflict in nine cities ? Jerusalem, Beirut, Belfast, Johannesburg, Nicosia, Sarajevo, Mostar, Bilbao, and Barcelona. Reporting on seventeen years of research and over 240 interviews with political leaders, planners, architects, community representatives, and academics, he blends personal reflections, reportage from a wealth of original interviews, and the presentation of hard data in a multidimensional and interdisciplinary exploration of these urban environments of damage, trauma, healing, and repair.City and Soul in Divided Societies reveals what it is like living and working in these cities, going inside the head of the researcher. This approach extends the reader?s understanding of these places and connects more intimately with the lived urban experience. Bollens observes that a city disabled by nationalistic strife looks like a callous landscape of securitized space, divisions and wounds, frozen in time and in place. Yet, the soul in these cities perseveres.Written for general readers and academic specialists alike, City and Soul in Divided Societies integrates facts, opinions, photographs, and observations in original ways in order to illuminate the substantial challenges of living in, and governing, polarized and unsettled cities. …
