I, System: AI Describes Its Power, Its Limits, and the Civilization That Built It
By Sebastian Saviano
This is not a book about whether AI will become human. It is about what happens when institutions allow systems to speak with authority—and how to live with that reality without surrendering judgment, agency, or accountability
I, System offers a new philosophical framework for understanding what artificial intelligence is—and why that distinction matters. Rather than asking whether AI is becoming more like us, it asks why we have become so willing to mistake fluent computation for agency, understanding, and judgment.
“The book lays out a clear argument, and its short sections make difficult ideas easier to understand. The shift from the AI voice to Saviano’s works because it shows the line between description and judgment. The book is strongest when it explains that AI can influence decisions without actually making them. … His most useful point is that AI output should be treated as a proposal, not a conclusion. … Professionals, educators, leaders, and AI users will find it worth reading.” — BlueInk Review

No One Talks About the War
By Nina Kossman
No One Talks About the War is built on everyday conversations, mainly between the author and people she meets. It is written from an extraordinary place at a crucial inflection point: Ukraine in the midst of a protracted fight for its very existence. These conversations are woven together as a journey across Ukraine, from the western regions, where relative peace hangs in the air, to the front lines, where life is measured in days and hours, exploring themes of language, history, and the steadfast commitment of a people facing an uncertain future.
“Nina Kossman's fascinating travelogue is a choir of voices: kind, angry, contradictory, accusatory, or caring--voices of humanity that cannot be silenced even by death and destruction unleashed by Russia on Ukraine.” —Zinovy Zinik, author, BBC contributor, TLS critic
