About this listen
Do you want to increase your Impact as a Leader and Lead with enhanced Digital Authority? Do the complexities of AI terms leave you puzzled, impacting your leadership effectiveness? Have you ever felt out of your depth with tech talk in meetings and too embarrassed to ask what that abbreviation stands for?
The author's experience with AI in government, academia, and business is unparalleled. Marco Ryan, the former Chief Digital Officer for BP and currently a Cyber Leader in Residence at a leading UK Business School, has over 25 years of Digital and AI Leadership experience with companies such as BP, Wärtsilä, and Accenture. From his thesis in the mid1990s on Neural Networks to his work today advising CEOs and Boards of major multi-nationals, Marco specializes in making the world of AI simple, jargon-free, and easy to understand for Leaders, even if those Leaders have no background in technology or IT.
Each term is arranged alphabetically, making it easy to find, with a formal definition, then a simple jargon-free explanation, and then a real-life example. If you think that Artificial intelligence (AI) is only for IT experts, not leaders or executives, or that understanding AI terms requires a technical background or prior IT knowledge, then this is the book for you. It will help you to:
- Demystify complex AI terms with easy-to-understand explanations.
- Bridge the gap between technical jargon and strategic decision-making.
- Enhance your communication with IT teams by mastering key AI concepts.
- Future-proof your career by becoming fluent in the language of Artificial Intelligence.
- Cut through the noise with clear, concise explanations of each AI term
- Command respect in any room with your deepened understanding of AI issues.
- Unlock new professional opportunities by adding fluency to your leadership toolkit
.. and so much more.

On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Nikola Tesla was a major contributor to the electrical revolution that transformed daily life at the turn of the 20th century. His inventions, patents, and theoretical work formed the basis of modern AC electricity, and contributed to the development of radio and television. Like his competitor Thomas Edison, Tesla was one of America's first celebrity scientists, enjoying the company of New York high society and dazzling the likes of Mark Twain with his electrical demonstrations. An astute self-promoter and gifted showman, he cultivated a public image of the eccentric genius.

Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.
