Supremacy
In Supremacy, Bloomberg columnist Parmy Olson delivers the definitive, behind-the-scenes account of the existential battle for the future of Artificial Intelligence. Focusing on the fierce rivalry between OpenAI and DeepMind, Olson reveals how a small group of idealists sparked a global arms race, shifting control from academic labs to corporate giants like Microsoft and Google.
The Private Life of an Atom
In The Private Life of the Atom, Professor Brian Cox delivers a poetic and scientifically rigorous "biography" of the fundamental building blocks of our universe.
