Om Varför lära?Varför lära? Meningen med mänsklig kunskap i AI-tider är en bok om kunskap, kritiskt tänkande, kreativitet, demokrati och frihet i en framtid dominerad av artificiell intelligens. Med levande exempel och tvärvetenskapligt djup vill boken väcka debatt, inspirera till handling och eftertänksamhet.
En fråga som många ställer sig, när AI inte bara söker information utan även analyserar den, skriver texter och fattar beslut, är: Varför ska vi överhuvudtaget lära oss något?
Boken är ett djärvt, lättillgängligt och djupt relevant manifest som väver samman neurovetenskap, psykologi och filosofi till en övertygande berättelse om mänsklig intelligens. Genom sex centrala skäl till att fortsätta lära och vässa vårt tänkande bygger författarna ett hoppfullt och kraftfullt argument för den mänskliga kunskapens bestående värde.
Sagt om boken:”De (författarna) går igenom skilda, väsentliga aspekter ifråga om kunskapens roll för oss människor. Inte minst för vårt mentala välbefinnande! Om vi vill kunna tänka och vara lyckliga, behöver vi lära. [...] Ibland kanske det känns som att vi är på väg mot en dystopi, men Klingberg och Wikforss ger oss en motvikt. De argumenterar för och motiverar oss till att själva fungera som en bromsmedicin i en värld av intellektuell försämring. Det gör boken väl värd att läsa!”Linus Björk, BTJ-häftet nr 5, 2026

This book lavishly illustrates the first 50 years of Apple’s history through stunning, full-color photographs.Instant New York Times BestsellerIn time for Apple’s 50th anniversary, CBS Sunday Morning correspondent David Pogue tells the iconic company’s entire life story: how it was born, nearly died, was born again under Steve Jobs, and became, under CEO Tim Cook, the most valuable company in the world. The book features new facts that correct the record and illuminate its subversive culture and fresh interviews with the legendary figures who shaped Apple into what it is today.On April 1, 1976, two scruffy twentysomethings, both named Steve, founded a startup. Their goal: To bring the revolutionary power of computers to everyone.Over the next five decades, Apple reshaped the technology and cultural landscapes, introducing the public to breakthroughs like the mouse, laser printing, CD-ROM, WiFi, digital video, home networking, touchscreen phones, and tablets. Jobs’s obsessive eye for detail set the stage for products—Mac, iMac, iPod, iTunes, iPhone, iPad, AirPods, Apple Watch—that married advanced technology with beauty, simplicity, and fine design.Deeply researched and lavishly illustrated, Apple: The First 50 Years includes new interviews with 150 key people who made the journey, including Steve Wozniak, John Sculley, Jony Ive, and many current designers, engineers, and executives. The book busts long-held myths; goes backstage for both the titanic successes (450 million iPods, 700 million iPads, 2.2 billion iPhones) and the instructive failures (Lisa, Apple III, MobileMe); and assesses the forces that challenge Apple’s dominance as it enters its second half century.Bursting with tales of frenetic all-nighters, engineering genius, and creative rebellion, this book is a true testament to Apple’s unique and innovative vision, and a must read for anyone whose life Apple has touched.

Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award 2025Longlisted for the 2025 Financial Times & Schroders Business Book of the YearShortlisted for Foyles Non Fiction Book of the Year 2025A New York Times BestsellerAn eye-opening account of the tech arms race shaping out planet, from an award-winning journalist and AI insider to the world of Sam Altman and OpenAIWhen longtime AI expert and journalist Karen Hao first began covering OpenAI in 2019, she thought they were the good guys. Founded as a nonprofit with safety enshrined as its core mission, it was meant, its leader Sam Altman told us, to act as a check against more purely market forces.But the core truth of this massively disruptive sector is that it requires an unprecedented amount of proprietary resources: the ‘compute’ power of scarce high-end chips, the sheer volume of data that needs to be amassed at scale, the humans on the ground ‘cleaning it up’ for sweatshop wages throughout the Global South, and a truly alarming spike in the need for energy and water underlying everything. We have entered a new, ominous age of empire with OpenAI setting a breakneck pace, as a small group of the most valuable companies in human history try to chase it down.In exhilarating prose and with unparalleled access to those closest to Sam Altman, Hao recounts the meteoric rise of OpenAI and shows us the sinister impact that this industry is having on society.

Den ängsliga generationen : hur överbeskyddande föräldrar och skärmberoende skapar en epidemi av psykisk ohälsa
Storpocket, Svenska, 2026

Den ängsliga generationen går till botten med den psykiska ohälsa som breder ut sig bland unga. De som var barn i slutet av 00-talet växte upp med stora teknologiska och sociala förändringar: framväxten av smarta telefoner, selfiekultur och sociala medier. De är den första generation som vuxit upp i en skärmbaserad social miljö där engagemang och bekräftelse reduceras till vänförfrågningar och gilla-markeringar. Utifrån den senaste psykologiska och biologiska forskningen visar den amerikanske socialpsykologen Jonathan Haidt hur skärmarnas inträde stör barnens utveckling på fyra grundläggande sätt – sömnbrist, social brist, kognitiv fragmentering och beroende – och erbjuder konkreta råd till föräldrar, skolor, universitet, regeringar och till tonåringarna själva. Med lika delar samtida forskning och antik visdom blir Haidts ögonöppnande bok både en varningssignal och livboj.

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.'Timely and important' Eric Schmidt'A manual for optimizing our destiny' Ray Kurzweil'An extraordinary blueprint for hope' Mo GawdatIn 1968, Stewart Brand declared: 'We are as gods - and we might as well get good at it.' Half a century later, that prophecy has come true.We can rewrite genes, edit embryos, build artificial minds, extend life, and terraform worlds. The old miracles - omniscience, omnipresence, even resurrection - are becoming standard operating procedure. But the real question isn't whether humanity can play god. It's whether we can do it wisely.In this book, the bestselling authors of Abundance and Bold return with a sweeping exploration of our species' next great transformation. Blending hard science with vivid storytelling, Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler chart humanity's ascent from scarcity to superabundance - and the psychological, ethical, and existential challenges that come with it.Across breakthroughs in AI, robotics, genetics, longevity, and consciousness research, they reveal a paradox at the heart of progress: as our external power expands, our inner resilience must evolve to match. Abundance without meaning leads to collapse. Intelligence without wisdom leads to extinction. To thrive in a world of everything, everywhere, all the time, we must learn to wield our godlike powers with humility, creativity, and flow.Equal parts warning and invitation, We Are As Gods is a map for flourishing in the exponential century. Because the future won't be built by those who fear what's coming, but by those who know how to turn chaos into creation.Abundance is here. Are you ready?

Välkommen till det viktigaste samtalet just nu.
Artificiell intelligens är inte längre science fiction. Den är ett faktum och den förändrar våra liv och vårt samhälle. Max Tegmark har skrivit ett blivande standardverk om mänsklighetens framtida existens.
Är det troligt att vi kommer att skapa övermänsklig intelligens? Hur bör vårt rättsväsende hantera autonoma system? Hur slår automatiseringen?
Detta är brännande frågor som vi alla behöver adressera: Om vi skapar en övermänsklig intelligens, skulle det då vara möjligt att kontrollera den? Kan vi över huvud taget försäkra oss om att användningen av AI gynnar oss?
Max Tegmark betraktar dessa frågor ur sitt unika perspektiv och väljer bort både teknikskepticism och digital utopi vi behöver en rationell medelväg för att kunna navigera vår spektakulära framtid.
"Alla bör fråga sig vad vi nu kan göra för att dra fördel av framtidens AI, och undvika riskerna. Detta är vår tids viktigaste samtal och Tegmarks tankeväckande bok hjälper dig i det samtalet." Professor Stephen Hawking
"Den makalösa kraft som den artificiella intelligensen har släppt loss medför att de kommande tio åren kan bli mänsklighetens bästa eller värsta. Tegmark har gjort den mest insiktsfulla och allra roligaste utforskningen av AI:s konsekvenser som jag någonsin har läst. Du har en högtidsstund framför dig." Professor Erik Brynjolfsson, chef för MIT Initiative on the digital economy
"Tegmarks nya bok är en genomtänkt guide till vår tids viktigaste samtal om hur vi ska skapa en välvillig framtida civilisation, när vi nu smälter samman vårt biologiska tänkande med en ännu större intelligens som vi själva har skapat." Ray Kurzweil, uppfinnare och framtidsforskare

Kernel methods provide a powerful and unified framework for pattern discovery, motivating algorithms that can act on general types of data (e.g. strings, vectors or text) and look for general types of relations (e.g. rankings, classifications, regressions, clusters). The application areas range from neural networks and pattern recognition to machine learning and data mining. This book, developed from lectures and tutorials, fulfils two major roles: firstly it provides practitioners with a large toolkit of algorithms, kernels and solutions ready to use for standard pattern discovery problems in fields such as bioinformatics, text analysis, image analysis. Secondly it provides an easy introduction for students and researchers to the growing field of kernel-based pattern analysis, demonstrating with examples how to handcraft an algorithm or a kernel for a new specific application, and covering all the necessary conceptual and mathematical tools to do so.

A rich, narrative explanation of the mathematics that has brought us machine learning and the ongoing explosion of artificial intelligenceMachine learning systems are making life-altering decisions for us: approving mortgage loans, determining whether a tumor is cancerous, or deciding if someone gets bail. They now influence developments and discoveries in chemistry, biology, and physics—the study of genomes, extrasolar planets, even the intricacies of quantum systems. And all this before large language models such as ChatGPT came on the scene.We are living through a revolution in machine learning-powered AI that shows no signs of slowing down. This technology is based on relatively simple mathematical ideas, some of which go back centuries, including linear algebra and calculus, the stuff of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century mathematics. It took the birth and advancement of computer science and the kindling of 1990s computer chips designed for video games to ignite the explosion of AI that we see today. In this enlightening book, Anil Ananthaswamy explains the fundamental math behind machine learning, while suggesting intriguing links between artificial and natural intelligence. Might the same math underpin them both?As Ananthaswamy resonantly concludes, to make safe and effective use of artificial intelligence, we need to understand its profound capabilities and limitations, the clues to which lie in the math that makes machine learning possible.In a brand-new afterword exclusively in the paperback edition, Ananthaswamy dives into the Transformer architecture that makes large language models like ChatGPT possible and points to groundbreaking future directions enabled by the technology.

That book, which despite its academic style became a New York Times bestseller, focused on what would happen if AI goes wrong.But what if AI goes right? Suppose we succeed in developing superintelligence safely and that we make good use of the almost magical powers this unlocks. We would then achieve full unemployment. More than that, we would transition into a “post-instrumental condition," in which human effort is not needed for any practical purpose. This would be a condition of material abundance. Human nature itself would become fully malleable.In such a solved world, what would be the point of human existence? What could give meaning to our lives? Which old values will we have to sacrifice, and which new values will we be able to realize to wonderful degrees?Deep Utopia—a work that is again years ahead of its time—takes the readers on a journey into some of the most profound questions that arise as we dissolve the limits of our current mode of being. It is a lush, playful, difficult, and human text that interleaves fiction stories and philosophical lectures that show us a glimpse of a different kind of existence–one that might be ours in the not-so-distant future.

Functional Programming in C#, Second Edition is fully revised to cover new functional-inspired features in the most recent releases of C#, including tuples, async streams, pattern matching, and records. Each chapter is packed with awesome perspectives and epiphany moments. Functional Programming in C#, Second Edition teaches you to apply functional thinking to real-world problems using the C# language.
You'll discover the principles and language features of functional programming, explore C#'s functional language features, and learn how to use them to write code that is concise, elegant, and robust. Through numerous real-world examples, you'll also learn the power of function composition, data flow programming, immutable data structures, and monadic composition with LINQ.
Functional programming changes the way you think about code by concentrating your attention on generic, composable behaviours instead of more complex objects. It gives developers the power to get more done with less code, enables super-safe concurrency that's perfect for multicore processors, and makes your code easy to maintain long-term. C#'s flexibility lets you benefit fully from the application of functional techniques.

For many applications a randomized algorithm is either the simplest algorithm available, or the fastest, or both. This tutorial presents the basic concepts in the design and analysis of randomized algorithms. The first part of the book presents tools from probability theory and probabilistic analysis that are recurrent in algorithmic applications. Algorithmic examples are given to illustrate the use of each tool in a concrete setting. In the second part of the book, each of the seven chapters focuses on one important area of application of randomized algorithms: data structures; geometric algorithms; graph algorithms; number theory; enumeration; parallel algorithms; and on-line algorithms. A comprehensive and representative selection of the algorithms in these areas is also given. This book should prove invaluable as a reference for researchers and professional programmers, as well as for students.

This book is intended for students, academics, designers, process engineers and CMM operators, and presents the ISO GPS and the ASME GD&T rules and concepts. The Geometric Product Specification (GPS) and Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) languages are in fact the most powerful tools available to link the perfect geometrical world of models and drawings to the imperfect world of manufactured parts and assemblies. The topics include a complete description of all the ISO GPS terminology, datum systems, MMR and LMR requirements, inspection, and gauging principles. Moreover, the differences between ISO GPS and the American ASME Y14.5 standards are shown as a guide and reference to help in the interpretation of drawings of the most common dimensioning and tolerancing specifications. The book may be used for engineering courses and for professional grade programmes, and it has been designed to cover the fundamental geometric tolerancing applications as well as the more advanced ones. Academics and professionals alike will find it to be an excellent teaching and research tool, as well as an easy-to-use guide. This 2nd, revised edition includes several improved features:- It highlights the tools provided in the recently published ISO GPS standards, such as ISO 22081-2021 and ISO 2692-2021.- New concepts and rules in accordance with the latest revision to the GD&T standard, ASME Y14.5.1-2019, Mathematical Definition of Dimensioning and Tolerancing Principles.- Most of the drawings have been redrawn and updated even further to the new standards.- Changes have been made to the text and illustrations to improve readability and clarify the contentAdditional contents and examples have been included.- The chapters dedicated to profile tolerance and tolerances (ISO 14405) have been extended and rewritten.
