Personal AI agents, systems that perceive, decide, and act on your behalf, are no longer enterprise technology. They are available to any professional with a laptop and the right framework. The Agentic Workflow Book is the definitive step-by-step guide to deploying your own AI agent stack: an Inbox Governor that triages email overnight, a Calendar Architect that protects your deep-work hours, a Content Ghostwriter that publishes in your voice, and a Research Agent that delivers daily industry intelligence before your first meeting.

An AI agent is a system with four moving parts. Once you can name those parts and see how they connect, the technology stops being a black box and starts being a tool you can evaluate with the same operational judgment you apply to every other decision in your business. That sentence is the entire premise of AI Agent Foundations — and the layer missing from almost everything else written on the topic.

This is a practical, non-technical guide for business leaders, entrepreneurs, and curious minds. This comprehensive guide on agentic AI cuts through the hype and offers a clear, jargon-free strategic roadmap to understanding and applying this technology. The authors bring a rare perspective, having implemented agentic AI across diverse organizations—from global enterprises to agile startups—witnessing both remarkable successes and sobering failures.

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.

If you’re ready to save time, slash costs, and grow faster in a world moving at AI speed, this 3-in-1 guide is your ultimate shortcut. Whether you’re a solo entrepreneur, a leader navigating digital change, or just AI-curious, this audiobook distills the core systems behind AI Agents, Prompt Engineering, and Generative AI into a powerful, beginner-friendly format.

Today’s “machine-learning” systems, trained by data, are so effective that we’ve invited them to see and hear for us―and to make decisions on our behalf. But alarm bells are ringing. Recent years have seen an eruption of concern as the field of machine learning advances. When the systems we attempt to teach will not, in the end, do what we want or what we expect, ethical and potentially existential risks emerge. Researchers call this the alignment problem.

Superintelligence asks the questions: What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? Nick Bostrom lays the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. The human brain has some capabilities that the brains of other animals lack. It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.

In Level Seven, the exciting culmination of the Killday series, AIs strive to evolve into a super intelligence and might destroy humanity in that pursuit. But could their hopes of achieving godhood actually lie with the nearly extinct humans they intend to eradicate?

Jeff Hawkins, the man who created the PalmPilot, Treo smart phone, and other handheld devices, has reshaped our relationship to computers. Now he stands ready to revolutionize both neuroscience and computing in one stroke, with a new understanding of intelligence itself.

Combining technical rigor and deep up-to-the-minute knowledge about AI development, the natural sciences (especially neuroscience), and philosophical literacy, "What Is Intelligence?" argues—quite against the grain—that certain modern AI systems do indeed have a claim to intelligence, consciousness, and free will.

Knowledge graphs model relationships between the objects, events, situations, and concepts in your domain so you can readily identify important patterns in your own data and make better decisions. Paired up with LLMs, they promise huge potential for working with structured and unstructured enterprise data, building recommendation systems, developing fraud detection mechanisms, delivering customer service chatbots, or more. This book provides tools and techniques for efficiently organizing data, modeling a knowledge graph, and incorporating KGs into the functioning of LLMs—and vice versa.

This program includes an introduction read by the author. No recent scientific enterprise has proved as alluring, terrifying, and filled with extravagant promise and frustrating setbacks as artificial intelligence. The award-winning author Melanie Mitchell, a leading computer scientist, now...
