FinOps brings financial accountability to the variable spend model of cloud. Used by the majority of global enterprises, this management practice has grown from a fringe activity to the de facto discipline managing cloud spend. In this book, authors J. R. Storment and Mike Fuller outline the process of building a culture of cloud FinOps by drawing on real-world successes and failures of large-scale cloud spenders. Complete with a road map to get you started, this revised second edition includes new chapters that cover forecasting, sustainability, and connectivity to other frameworks.

Artificial Intelligence helps choose what books you buy, what movies you see, and even who you date. It puts the "smart" in your smartphone and soon it will drive your car. It makes most of the trades on Wall Street, and controls vital energy, water, and transportation infrastructure. But Artificial Intelligence can also threaten our existence. In as little as a decade, AI could match and then surpass human intelligence. Corporations and government agencies are pouring billions into achieving AI’s Holy Grail - human-level intelligence.

Garry Kasparov gives his first public account of his landmark 1997 chess match with the IBM supercomputer Deep Blue, and explains why, twenty years later, he's become convinced that artificial intelligence is good for humans. In May 1997, the world watched as Garry Kasparov, the greatest chess...

Do multiple versions of ourselves exist in parallel universes living out their lives in different timelines? In this follow-up to his best seller, The Simulation Hypothesis, MIT computer scientist and Silicon Valley game pioneer Rizwan Virk explores these topics from a new lens: that of simulation theory. Bringing his unique trademark style of combining video games, computer science, quantum physics, and computing with lots of philosophy and science fiction, Virk gives us a new way to think about not just our universe, but all possible timelines in the multiverse!

We are a minuscule part of an incredible continuum: a chain of events spanning 13.8 billion years, with an infinite future. But what does that future hold? And will we ever truly understand our cosmic home? The Universe In a Box is Andrew Pontzen's tribute to simulation - the remarkable fusion of technology and science that, over the last century, has allowed us to understand the distant past and far future of the universe.

The ultimate non-technical guide to the fast-developing world of quantum computing. Computer technology has improved exponentially over the last 50 years. But the headroom for bigger and better electronic solutions is running out. Our best hope is to engage the power of quantum physics. ‘Quantum algorithms' had already been written long before hardware was built.

* *For examples of apps I've made look up "Decoded Faith Bible Study" and "Learn AI for Digital Marketing" by Brittany Johnson. **You’ve had the idea. Maybe you even Googled how to build an app… and immediately felt stuck. You don’t know how to code. You don’t have a technical background. And everything online makes it feel more complicated than it actually needs to be. This is where that changes. From Idea to App shows you how to take what’s in your head and turn it into a real, working app using AI—without learning how to code, hiring a developer, or spending thousands of dollars.

Durante siglos hemos creído saber distinguir lo vivo de lo inerte. Un animal está vivo, una máquina no. Pero esa frontera empieza a desdibujarse. La inteligencia artificial, la biología sintética, la exploración del universo y los avances científicos nos están empujando hacia un territorio desconocido: uno en el que las máquinas aprenden, los sistemas evolucionan y la vida podría no ser exclusiva de lo biológico.

El lugar místico y mágico que tuvieron los oráculos, los astrólogos y todo tipo de adivinadores en la Antigüedad hoy lo ocupan los algoritmos. Desde nuestras finanzas o la atención médica hasta las noticias, las redes sociales y los productos que consumimos, vivimos rodeados de pronósticos que influyen en cada una de nuestras decisiones y nos generan una falsa sensación de seguridad.

In a world where AI is getting smarter every single week, feeling stupid might be the best thing that ever happens to you. The word “stupid” doesn’t actually mean what you think. It comes from the Latin stupidus—meaning “struck senseless” or “amazed.” That frozen, wide-eyed moment when our ancestors first saw lightning or fire? That was “stupid.” The Korean word “babo” carries the same spirit—a warm, affectionate way of saying “you lovable idiot,” said with a smile. This book is about reclaiming that original meaning.

From Data to Decisions reveals how AI turns the chaos of modern information into clarity, intelligence, and power. Through ten illuminating chapters, Julian Vexley explores the mechanisms, logic, and creativity behind the most important technological revolution of our time—the rise of systems that can learn, predict, and decide.

National Bestseller From the New York Times bestselling authors of Abundance, Bold, and The Future Is Faster Than You Think comes a bold exploration of what it means to stay human in a world where technology has granted us godlike power. In 1968, Stewart Brand declared: “We are as gods—and...

This book is crafted for curious minds—not just tech professionals. It’s designed to take the mystery out of AI and help you confidently apply it in ways that make sense for your life. With hands-on exercises and real-world applications, this book empowers you to use AI confidently—whether for work, home, or fun.

We live under the comforting assumption that the digital world is permanent — that what we upload, store, and share online will remain accessible forever. Digital Memory & Identity challenges this illusion by exploring the fragility, decay, and impermanence of our modern digital archives. This book examines how our personal histories, cultural artifacts, creative works, and collective knowledge are increasingly stored on technological foundations that are far more vulnerable than traditional physical records.

You've seen what AI can do. You've watched the demos, tested the tools, bookmarked the threads. But somewhere between inspiration and execution, the path blurred. Too many options. Too many gurus. Too many "ultimate guides" that left you with more questions than answers. It’s true—the window is open, but it won't stay open forever. This 2-in-1 collection gives you everything you need to go from stuck to profitable, whether you want to launch a lean AI service from scratch or scale a full agency that replaces your salary.

What if human cloning isn’t a modern discovery, but an ancient technology rediscovered? Long before modern science, civilisations like the Sumerians and the Anunnaki may have practiced genetic manipulation, creating humanity as engineered slaves for labour and obedience, not children of gods. Myths like Adam and Eve and divine bloodlines could be encoded records of this lost history. Occultists like John Dee weren’t just dabbling in magic, they sought to create life, continuing a hidden tradition of cloning.

The productivity revolution is here, and most people are missing it. While others treat ChatGPT-5 like a fancy search engine, smart entrepreneurs and creators are using it to reclaim 15-20 hours per week through systematic automation. This isn't about getting better answers—it's about delegating entire workflows to an AI collaborator that never sleeps, never forgets, and gets smarter every day.

Humanity has reached a critical moment. Our world is unsettled and rapidly changing, and we face existential risks over the next century. Various outcomes - good and bad - are possible. Yet our approach to the future is characterized by short-term thinking, polarizing debates, alarmist rhetoric, and pessimism. In this short, exhilarating book, renowned scientist and best-selling author Martin Rees argues that humanity’s prospects depend on our taking a very different approach to planning for tomorrow.
