Story
Neither an advocate nor a critic of cultured meat, Benjamin Aldes Wurgaft spent five years researching the phenomenon. In Meat Planet, he reveals how debates about lab-grown meat reach beyond debates about food, examining the links between appetite, growth, and capitalism. Could satiating the growing appetite for meat actually lead to our undoing? Are we simply using one technology to undo the damage caused by another? Like all problems in our food system, the meat problem is not merely a problem of production. It is intrinsically social and political.

Story
Thanks to recent advances in AI, humans have entered a world where we are no longer the sole custodians of knowledge. A new wave of disarmingly human-like chatbots, such as ChatGPT, Claude and Bard, appear to be able to talk and reason like us - and are beginning to transform everything we do. It is vital we understand how they work. Can AI ‘think’, 'know' and ‘understand’? What are its values? Whose biases is it perpetuating? Can it lie and if so, could we tell? Does their arrival threaten our very existence?

Story
The future is not what it used to be. In this volatile era, with the world changing rapidly, people are more curious than ever to know what lies ahead. Will relentless consumerism end up destroying our planet? Or can science and technology allow us to innovate our way out of trouble? Perhaps a greater social consciousness and community-based living will take over or, conversely, the competition for limited resources may result in everyone fighting for themselves.

Story
Im März 2020 änderte sich alles. Homeoffice war plötzlich die neue Norm. Alle mussten sich digitalisieren und transformieren – ob sie wollten oder nicht. Die Arbeit drängte weiter ins restliche Leben, zur Erwerbsarbeit kam noch mehr Carearbeit. Die Schere zwischen systemrelevanten Berufen und Bürojobs ging weiter auf. Covid hat uns gezeigt, was in der Arbeitswelt nicht mehr funktioniert. Und da ist nicht nur die Pandemie. Überschwemmungen, Waldbrände, Inflation, Krieg – unsere Welt steht in Flammen, im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes.

Story
Des leçons intemporelles sur ce qui ne change jamais dans un monde en perpétuel mouvement, par Morgan Housel, auteur de "La Psychologie de l'argent". Si vous faisiez un bond de cinq cents ans dans le passé ou dans le futur, vous seriez ahuri par l'état d'avancement des technologies et de la médecine. L'ordre géopolitique vous paraîtrait incompréhensible. Les langues et les dialectes vous seraient peut-être inintelligibles. Mais vous reconnaîtriez sans mal les principes universels qui régissent les comportements.

As science and technology rapidly permeate our lives, we may soon lose control of their tremendous impact on all facets of our society. Instead of making positive or negative projections, this book delves into the specifics of forthcoming changes and how much impact we may have to direct them in our favor. Closely tied together, the evolution of humankind alongside machines is gearing up for the merging of both and the formation of a new entity: a Simorgh whose decisions will be beyond our control.
