英文原著: The Coming Wave
「技術人」持續迭代的英雄史詩
來自微軟AI執行長、AlphaGo生父，不容錯過的吟遊敘事
——人類終於來到技術的「控制邊緣」——
我們需要智識上的悲觀，意志上的樂觀，如同站在峭壁上眺望未來

當每個人都能用愈來愈低的成本，使用愈來愈強大的工具；「技術人」持續迭代的英雄史詩
來自微軟AI執行長、AlphaGo生父，不容錯過的吟遊敘事
——人類終於來到技術的「控制邊緣」——

☆☆☆入圍《金融時報》2023年度商業圖書獎名單☆☆☆
當地緣政治風險以科技軍備競賽的形式迅速膨脹；
當AI把曾經的哲學辯論，變成每個人必須面對的現實……
合成生物學、機器人技術、量子電腦、核融合等科技大浪，
有望因AI助攻達指數成長，掀起海嘯。
我們不確定那些我們所重視的：
自由意識、國家治理，甚或全球秩序……
還能多大程度回應普世預期。
這本由AI局內人所撰寫的開創性著作，
把「駕馭問題」（亦即掌控強大科技）列為我們這個時代的基本挑戰。
＼＼＼我們還沒準備好／／／
不久之後，AI將包圍我們的生活，它們會執行複雜的任務，例如經營事業、產出無限的數位內容、提供核心的政府服務、維護基礎設施。你將生活在一個由DNA列印機和量子電腦、工程病原體與自主武器、機器人助理與豐富能源所組成的世界裡。這代表人類能力的飛躍突破。但我們還沒準備好。
＼＼＼全球AI百大影響力人物／／／
本書作者蘇萊曼一直處於這場技術革命的核心。這場革命可望成為史上最強大的進步加速器。他認為，這一波強大、快速擴散的新科技將會界定未來十年的光景。有了強大的政治與商業動機的推動，這些工具將幫助我們因應全球挑戰，創造龐大的財富，但也會帶來難以想像的劇變。
蘇萊曼是人工智慧公司DeepMind的共同創辦人，也是打敗世界棋王李世乭的AlphaGo的生父之一。於2024年3月接掌微軟新部門「Microsoft AI」執行長，負責微軟消費端的AI業務。《時代》雜誌將蘇萊曼評為全球AI百大影響力人物之一，以其所在的位置與扮演的角色而言，這個評價恰如其分。
＼＼＼趨避悲觀的陷阱／／／
蘇萊曼是最早將安全與倫理考量納入科技公司核心的技術領袖，他指出科技精英有趨避悲觀的特性，習慣忽視、淡化或否定他們認為過於消極的敘述，像是：我們終究會想到解決辦法的。這就能解釋為何《控制邊緣》這本書受到各界領袖人物推崇，正是因為蘇萊曼一一指出他們長期逃避的心態與行為，要求科技菁英們真正面對應該處理的駕馭問題。
＼＼＼民族國家逐漸失能／／／
在本書中，蘇萊曼將展示科技力量如何威脅民族國家的運作以及全球秩序的基礎。當脆弱的政府如夢遊般一步步走向災難時，我們面臨攸關存亡的兩難困境：一方面是不受控制的開放，帶來了前所未有的傷害；另一方面則是專橫的監視所帶來的威脅。我們能在災難與反烏托邦之間開闢出一道狹路嗎？
作者
穆斯塔法．蘇萊曼（Mustafa Suleyman）
現任微軟執行副總裁兼新部門「Microsoft AI」執行長，DeepMind共同創辦人。
從倫敦街頭到科技世界的巔峰，本書作者穆斯塔法．蘇萊曼的人生軌跡，正如人工智慧技術的發展一般，充滿突破與轉變。十九歲那年，他放棄大學學業，協助創立穆斯林青年熱線，為倫敦的穆斯林社區提供一項創新的心理健康支持服務。這份對於運用科技改變社會的熱情，成為他日後創業旅程的先聲。
蘇萊曼的名字，與DeepMind這家人工智慧先驅公司緊密相連。作為共同創辦人，他不僅見證公司從一個小型創業公司成長為全球AI研究的佼佼者，更是在公司被Google收購之後，推動AI技術的廣泛應用。DeepMind創造一個以人類的方式學習如何玩電子遊戲的類神經網路，並在2014年開始開發AI圍棋軟體AlphaGo，短短不到兩年時間便擊敗世界棋王李世乭。這項里程碑對全球科技生態產生深遠影響，人工智慧的春天再度來臨。
2022年，蘇萊曼與LinkedIn共同創辦人霍夫曼（Reid Hoffman）共同創立Inflection AI，繼續他的願景：重新定義人類與電腦的關係。他領導下的團隊推出個人AI「Pi」，這項技術不僅以其世界級的個性和同理心吸引數百萬用戶，也開創生產力應用的新範疇。
《時代》雜誌將蘇萊曼評為全球AI百大影響力人物之一，證明他在推動AI發展與倫理討論上的重要地位。《時代》這麼描述：「打從二十年前，蘇萊曼就開始討論世界未來的模樣，他們的願景和堅持，最終將DeepMind推至該領域的頂端。」
2024年3月，蘇萊曼接任微軟新部門「Microsoft AI」執行長，負責消費端AI業務。

Great card to have highly recommend
Like using the card for everything. 5 to 7% cashback credit is awesome.
No interest is even better.
I put almost all my purchases and bills on my credit accounts or credit cards and pay them off monthly.
Now that I'm a senior citizen I don't like to go to 20 different stores to find the best prices.
The card made my life less busy and I don't have to worry about paying for the many, many things I need right away. Even though I pay off all my accounts every month.
If I need a big ticket item, like a new flat-screen television I can get it and not worry about the cost by paying over time if I need to.
Having another credit account has also improved my credit score by the hundreds. I was in the 500s for decades until I started the secured card on Amazon. Now I am nearly at an excellent score in the high 700s and don't need secured credit cards.
I can use my account at Whole Foods and have my phone scanned for payment. It's just so easy to use

Credit limit drop without cause, Synchrony?
Hey Synchrony, I've about had it with your services, I have 2 cards I use through you through Walgreens and Amazon. You lowered My credit limit on both cards causing me to go over on one because of stupid interest when I had 500 left and I had quit using the damn thing, and my Amazon store card I just Made a 200 Payment on! Lowering my limit and leaving me blind, You should call your customers leave a voicemail or text for heck sake ill read them, I don't read my emails usually for 2 or three weeks, well you did it again, but this time to card I just paid 200$ on too!, Your company sucks, I hate your practices, and I want you to know that. I also want Amazon to know that!! I spend a Boatload of money through amazon, as does my entire family, all ya gotta do is look!! Well I have never felt more unappreciated, insulted, like I stole something or like dirt ever ever in my adult life like you made me feel. Like i'm doing something wrong. Well guess what Synchrony Bank? I'm not doing anything wrong, at all!! I've never been late or missed a payment with my Amazon card or any card I have with you, Synchrony. Your Faceless Corp in its infinite wisdom, decided it would be a great idea to screw over an actual good customer just because some stupid algorithm reported my credit limit was too high and I was a risk, and lowered my limit from where it had been for the last 3 years and then sent a Quiet email about a letter that you put on my online account, please read it, just like that, no Urgent header nothing not that. I don't even read my email that often. I DO read texts or my regular mail, or listen to my phone messages!! I meant what I said NEVER LATE not even once, and NEVER MISSED a payment NOT once!!! The ONLY time I ever had to deal with any kind of problem was the one that lowering my limit on my Mastercard were the cause of, Synchrony!!! when you dropped my credit limit without me knowing and I went over my new dang limit because interest charges were coming in!!! I new where I was and had it handled and would have been able to ride the storm but no you had to mess with my account. Oh and I dont give a Crap if you quote me "we have the right to raise or lower you limit whenever we want", It's a BS excuse to screw over your customers, I know about the terms, however in all of my 54 years, you are the only credit card company that has ever lowered a limit one a CC I had EVER! and I've dealt with some Super sketchy Dirtbag Why did I ever agree to this card, charge me for everything Companies. Mostly when I was young but not even they cut my limit, without me missing payments or being late .....Now 30 years later much older and I thought wiser better CC much better 2500$ limit I've had for years and expect that limit to stay in place or like my Prime Store Card 2000$ limit to stay in place!! not dropped by 500$, for hells sake!!!! Well today I get the old hey your payment option for your try before you buy order needs addressed, and why do you think that was? Hmmm? Well, Ill tell you!! Because you Dropped my limit, by 500$ Now if Amazon dropped it then Ill chew them out too, but I don't think it was them, cuz you did this on my Walgreens card too!!! I just made a 200 payment on my Amazon card as well jerks! Not one of the several companies ive had previous Cards with NOT Cap one Cred one, citi, Community bank, american express, discover you name it, and Ive probably had it at one time or another dozens upon dozens over my adult life at this point anyway. Well, not even the Sleaziest Dirtyiest Gutter Scum CC company with fees for just looking at your card has ever lowered my credit limit not in 34 years Especially when I wasn't late or missing payments ever, always been on time and never missed a payment not 1 time, Except SYNCHRONY, and I think you suck for that!! The only reason I gave 3 stars is Amazon doesn't deserve a 1 star review because of your company! I love amazon, I love their products, their deals their delivery Amazon Prime, im ride or die with Amazon, my kids do all their shopping on amazon they even use it for groceries and stuff occasionally, but I really, really don't like how you treat customers Synchrony, especially customers, that pay on time and even early, oh and on auto pay for Christ sake!!! Now I know why some young dumb kids and people say screw it and stop paying CC bills, cuz the Corporations that pass em out like candy to kids, I might add, are SCUM bags, thats why!! It's all about the GREEN, more, and more and more money its never enough!! Well, when you dropped my credit limit without me knowing and I went over the limit of a different card I had with you, it was because of interest fees coming in. I expected and knew about these fees, however, I also thought I had 500 more than I had available on my card!! What a great day that was, let me tell ya!! I didn't even miss a payment I just didn't make a big enough one to cover the interest that came in, and I also never just pay the minimum payment with these cards either!! Your practices are shady, and the crap you pull against loyal customers that pay on time and even on Autopay are so Scummy!! You know when you dropped my credit limit without me knowing and I went over my limit because of interest, I even reached out to my current lawyer about Bankruptcy choices and stuff and if I should deal with you that way, but I got over bein mad! You know if I was late all the time and a crappy customer missing payments I wouldn't blame you for anything and at least Id know my cards were lowered and probably locked ...but I didn't want to do that, I wanted to try and slide right back into auto pay and get back on track and to deal with a recent Identity theft issue im having and not stop paying my bills OH..yeah, you smellin what i'm sellin? Well because of some terrible thing I must have done in a Past life, I guess. Several months ago now when I was dealing with the death of my mom very suddenly. I also noticed my credit score started dropping and I had no idea why, well turns out i'm MR popular. I had all sorts of crap in my name most of it local where I live and surrounding locally. 100 points in like 5 months!! I digress, Whatever! I don't care anymore, cancel my cards if you want, I'm done! This world is goin to hell in a hand basket, Civil War is almost immanent, a Faceless mob can destroy peoples lives just by canceling them on the internet at a whim. When its true I agree with the mob but when there isn't any proof and someone's life is upturned and then it turns out to be a total lie or they said something 12 years ago and its dug up? Good God, I probably said some haynous stuff when I was 25, but I can assure you when I was 37 I was not that person anymore, my views had changed on many things,,,,that stuff is crazy, and so am I for thinking I can do a damn thing,,,, my mom died 5 months ago, I was just recently laid off from my job I had for 17 years last month, and now you drop my limit again when i've been on time and auto paying and almost screw up my Amazon account!!so screw it!! Eat It Synchrony Bank,Eat It! Sorry about 3 Stars Amazon.

Bouncy, not hard, and good value.
Style: Fetch Balls (Pack of 10), Size: 2.5 inch
Great balls for the ball launcher and not rockhard like some of the solid rubber balls. These have great bounce, and because of the two holes, they make a fun whistling noise as they fly through the air. My dogs love them and they are a good value.
By the way, if you throw them too hard, they will go through chain-link and no climb fence because they squish a bit!

Excellent dog balls — safe design and very durable
Style: Fetch Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
These fetch balls from Amazon Basics are fantastic, and my dog absolutely loves them. One of the biggest reasons I prefer these over other brands is the hole that runs through the center of the ball. This is a very important safety feature: if a dog were to accidentally get the ball stuck in the back of the throat, the hole allows air to pass through. That small detail could literally make a life-saving difference.
Aside from the safety benefit, they bounce well, are easy to clean, and hold up to a lot of playtime. They’re firm but not rock-hard, and my dog goes crazy for them. Great value, great quality, and a thoughtful design.
Highly recommended for dog owners who want a safer alternative to standard solid rubber balls.

Great ball for heavy chewers
Style: Assorted Balls (Pack of 3), Size: 2.5 inch
Great toy for my Doberman. She chews through tennis balls in about 15 minutes but these are very durable. She likes to chase them but also just chew on them.
