'Thoughtful, moving and well-written' - Yuval Noah Harari'An urgent examination of the human attraction to misinformation' - Daniel H. PinkMisinformation affects us daily, from social media to politics and even personal relationships. Policing social media alone cannot solve the complex problem shaped by partisan politics and subjective interpretations of truth.In Misbelief social scientist Dan Ariely explores the behaviour of 'misbelief' that leads people to distrust accepted truths and embrace conspiracy theories. Misinformation taps into something innate in all of us, regardless of political affiliation. By understanding this psychology, we can mitigate its effects. Grounded in research and Ariely's personal experience as a target of disinformation, the book analyses the psychological drivers behind adopting irrational beliefs. Ariely reveals the emotional, cognitive, personality, and social elements that drive people towards false information and mistrust.Despite advanced AI generating convincing fake news, Ariely offers hope. Awareness of the forces fuelling misbelief makes individuals and society more resilient. Combating misbelief requires empathy, not conflict. Recognising misbelief as a human problem allows us to be part of the solution.

"Look around you. Artificial intelligence is no longer just a futuristic notion. It's here right now--in software that senses what we need, supply chains that "think" in real time, and robots that respond to changes in their environment. Twenty-first-century pioneer companies are already using AI to innovate and grow fast. The bottom line is this: Businesses that understand how to harness AI can surge ahead. Those that neglect it will fall behind. Which side are you on? In Human + Machine, Accenture leaders Paul R. Daugherty and H. James (Jim) Wilson show that the essence of the AI paradigm shift is the transformation of all business processes within an organization--whether related to breakthrough innovation, everyday customer service, or personal productivity habits. As humans and smart machines collaborate ever more closely, work processes become more fluid and adaptive, enabling companies to change them on the fly--or to completely reimagine them. AI is changing all the rules of how companies operate. Based on the authors' experience and research with 1,500 organizations, the book reveals how companies are using the new rules of AI to leap ahead on innovation and profitability, as well as what you can do to achieve similar results. It describes six entirely new types of hybrid human + machine roles that every company must develop, and it includes a "leader's guide" with the five crucial principles required to become an AI-fueled business. Human + Machine provides the missing and much-needed management playbook for success in our new age of AI"--

"The quintessential handbook on 'how to' co-design. In recent years, co-design has become something of a buzzword. While the term has gained in popularity, its true meaning and practical implementations are not widely understood. Existing resources, such as co-design toolkits, are freely available online but tend to be highly specialised and template-driven, limiting their usefulness for diverse contexts. The team behind "The Art of Co-Design" conducted a thorough review of existing co-design toolkits and created a comprehensive resource that provides a holistic understanding of co-design, its methods, and applications. This book examines the core steps in developing and delivering projects, from creatively designing the co-design itself to understanding how it can work best for different stakeholder groups to analyzing results correctly and producing effective prototypes. Consider this book the ultimate guide on 'how to' co-design. - Gain the confidence to effectively engage in co-design.- Learn how to customize and apply co-design to any context.- Allow for more authentic and tailored approaches."
