Photographs and Reflections by Paul McCartney 'Millions of eyes were suddenly upon us, creating a picture I will never forget for the rest of my life.' In 2020, an extraordinary trove of nearly a thousand photographs taken by Paul McCartney on a 35mm camera was re-discovered in his archive. They intimately record the months towards the end of 1963 and beginning of 1964 when Beatlemania erupted in the UK and, after the band's first visit to the USA, they became the most famous people on the planet. The photographs are McCartney's personal record of this explosive time, when he was, as he puts it, in the 'Eyes of the Storm'. 1964: Eyes of the Storm presents 275 of McCartney's photographs from the six cities of these intense, legendary months - Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. and Miami - and many never-before-seen portraits of John, George and Ringo. In his Foreword and Introductions to these city portfolios, McCartney remembers 'what else can you call it - pandemonium ' and conveys his impressions of Britain and America in 1964 - the moment when the culture changed and the Sixties really began. 1964: Eyes of the Storm includes: - Six city portfolios - Liverpool, London, Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. and Miami - and a Coda on the later months of 1964 - featuring 275 of Paul McCartney's photographs and his candid reflections on them - A Foreword by Paul McCartney - Beatleland , an Introduction by Harvard historian and New Yorker essayist Jill Lepore - A Preface by Nicholas Cullinan, Director of the National Portrait Gallery, London, and Another Lens , an essay by Senior Curator Rosie Broadley

Removing data from databases or datasets.
Format: Kindle
If the share a video or photo option was working I would share the screenshot. However, I'll quote it. "Most of the adults on the list had never been charged, but once they were included, ther was no way to have their name removed." This needs more clarification as you can delete data from a database. Especially if web based, there should be CRUD principles added. If that was not the case there's still ways to delete the data or even change it's classification. I will give benefit of the doubt that there's an underlying reason it was said there was no way to remove or that I even misunderstood the context around it. Just seems a little like reaching by this point. Also, I do like this book and a fresh perspective on data collection even though at times it seems to read a little emotional for what I was expecting of an Atlas. Regardless looking past the verbiage of emotions, this is a great book that does point out a lot of history with AI. Thank you for creating this book! Also giving more data to the internet to be used for.... AI... lol

A must read for ALL world citizens A must read again!!
Format: Paperback
Fabulous book. Wide ranging, every page full of information that ALL modern citizens should already know or should learn as we go to green technologies and even more dependence on AI and computers. These techs look 'all clean' and 'socially fair' when in fact at every stage (she takes us from design, to engineering to mining, to sales to production of techs) in this 'atlas' of AI we see pollution, inequality, power relationships hidden just beneath the surface. The tip of the AI/computer/green tech iceberg looks all white and clean........the rest (the filth, pollution and inequaity) are all hidden away. Just a tremendous book and not too hard to read. This book should be required reading for all college students, whatever their field!

Embitterment in regard to AI
Format: Kindle
AI is one of the most important innovations in the last decades. But the author of this book claims that the current application of AI is bad. It requires computers that use rare material, the mining of which harms the environment, and it uses inaccurate training data, to list some of the arguments presented in this book. But when considering these drawbacks against AI's blessing (automatic translation, contribution to medical research, etc.), the criticism seems to be not justified. The author blames AI for searching order in an infinitely complex world (in the Conclusion chapter), but she ignores that this is exactly what science does. The book also includes many interesting reviews of the history of science and AI. I enjoyed very much reading these reviews.

Engaging study of the underpinnings of AI
Format: Kindle
This “atlas” maps what is often forgotten when discussing AI: material needs like the extraction of lithium and other minerals from the earth with the destruction of nature that requires and the workers, as well as the epistemological constraints of classification and the false proxies of data. The book is engagingly written and easy to follow while richly sourced. I’ll probably assign at least a couple of chapters to undergrads in our digital culture program. I would have loved an audio book version - but I listened to it using automatic text to speech on my phone and it was surprisingly not awful. This is the first time I’ve done that with a whole book.
