NOVEDADES

Momo Arashima is half goddess and half human—torn between two worlds. But with her friends Danny, Ryleigh, Jin and Niko by her side, she’s finally starting to find a place where she belongs. Too bad none of that matters when Izanami, the treacherous goddess of death, threatens the life of someone Momo loves and forces her into a terrible bargain.

La historia inolvidable de cómo un grupo de apasionados desafió las reglas del béisbol y conquistó el mundo. A inicios de 2002, los Oakland Athletics, uno de los equipos más pobres de la liga profesional de béisbol, perdió a sus tres mejores jugadores. Sin embargo, unos meses más tarde, y contra todo pronóstico, consiguió el récord absoluto de partidos ganados de manera consecutiva, y logró uno de los disputados puestos en los playoffs de la Liga. Esta es la historia de cómo se obró aquel pequeño milagro y de cómo un fracasado exjugador de béisbol y un ingeniero obsesionado con la estadística cambiaron para siempre la historia del deporte. Uno de los mejores libros de periodismo que nunca se hayan escrito, un clásico deportivo que condensa en sus páginas toda la épica, la fascinación y los dramas que confluyen dentro de un equipo. Una narrativa llena de personajes fabulosos en la que Michael Lewis nos legó uno de los libros más originales y revolucionarios que jamás se hayan escrito.

In November 2022, OpenAI released GPT-4 in a chatbot form to the public. In just two months, it claimed 100 million users—the fastest app to ever reach this benchmark. Since then, AI has become an all-consuming topic, popping up on the news, in ads, on your messenger apps, and in conversations with friends and family. But as AI becomes ubiquitous and grows at an ever-increasing pace, what does it mean for the financial markets? In MoneyGPT, Wall Street veteran and former advisor to the Department of Defense James Rickards paints a comprehensive picture of the danger AI poses to the global financial order, and the insidious ways in which AI will threaten national security. Rickards shows how, while AI is touted to increase efficiency and lower costs, its global implementation in the financial world will actually cause chaos, as selling begets selling and bank runs happen at lightning speed. AI further benefits malicious actors, Rickards argues, because without human empathy or instinct to intervene, threats like total nuclear war that once felt extreme are now more likely. And throughout all this, we must remain vigilant on the question of whose values will be promoted in the age of AI. As Rickards predicts, these systems will fail when we rely on them the most.
