A Gold Bug’s Transformation to AI


Book Description

This book was the result of my personal journey in experimenting and using my POE AI bot called KitLuiInvestBot. It was mostly written by my bot with the assistance of my questions, research, uploading my knowledge source and reviewing and editing of the final book. After using my bot, I became a follower and investor of AI. Early in my career, I became a “gold bug” after experiencing some significant loses in the emerging markets and pretending to be George Soros. Ever since then, I held my gold investments assiduously even to this day. I have always wanted to share some of my knowledge from the books I have read over the past thirty years. This book is a result of this exploration and I hope you find it useful and practical in your own investment journey. The opinions expressed are mine and not meant to be general investment advice. For specific investment advice, you should seek the assistance of professionals. For quick readers, this book is about investing in gold and AI using the bar bell strategy. Now let’s begin and see if you agree with my investment proposition. If you do not agree with me, that is okay and maybe you can learn some new things about the life-time pursuit of investing and the possibilities of AI as an investment opportunity. It is acknowledged that early-stage investors have already profited from the AI investment trend but arguably this is secular trend and will last a long time - just in time for the next bull market, which started in late-2023. These are investment strategies that you can use right now. We also hope that you can improve your investment skills by understanding the principles described in this book. Consider it as a reminder if you are a veteran investor. This book is not meant to be a detailed case for a bull market in gold or AI. This is just my own opinion and experience. There are plenty of resources out there which explore these areas. There are also plenty of financial analysts that provide outlooks on new investment trends that does a better job than my boo on the inevitability of gold and AI. However, this book is unique in that it will make you reflect on your own style of investment and will give ideas for improvement. It will question your own biases and is a check list for do’s and don’ts for beginners and experts alike. Throughout the book, I share valuable advice for both beginners and experts in the field of investing. I would like to emphasize the importance of education, starting early, and saving money as key principles for building a strong foundation in investment. Additionally, I hope the reader comes away with a deeper understanding of the significance of investing in what one understands, being patient and disciplined, and seeking value opportunities. Furthermore, my use of the POE AI bot, KitLuiInvestBot, adds a unique perspective to the book. By incorporating AI into their investment journey, I hope to showcase the potential of AI as an investment opportunity. The most important thing to remember about this book is its emphasis on self-reflection and continuous improvement. I encourage readers to question their own biases and to constantly evaluate their investment style. This introspective approach serves as a reminder for both beginners and experts to remain open-minded and adaptable in their investment decisions. Hope you enjoy!

The Last Invention


Book Description

'The AI does not hate you, nor does it love you, but you are made of atoms which it can use for something else' This is a book about AI and AI risk. But it's also more importantly about a community of people who are trying to think rationally about intelligence, and the places that these thoughts are taking them, and what insight they can and can't give us about the future of the human race over the next few years. It explains why these people are worried, why they might be right, and why they might be wrong. It is a book about the cutting edge of our thinking on intelligence and rationality right now by the people who stay up all night worrying about it. Along the way, we discover why we probably don't need to worry about a future AI resurrecting a perfect copy of our minds and torturing us for not inventing it sooner, but we perhaps should be concerned about paperclips destroying life as we know it; how Mickey Mouse can teach us an important lesson about how to programme AI; and why Spock is not as logical as we think he is.




Urban Insect Pests


Book Description

A companion to 'Urban Pest Management', this book builds on the issues of insect pests in urban settings to discuss control strategies that look beyond products. From an environmental and health perspective, it is not always practical to spray chemicals indoors or in urban settings, so this work discusses sustainable control and best practice methods for managing insects that are vectors of disease, nuisance pests and the cause of structural damage.




The Palgrave Handbook of Crisis Leadership in Higher Education


Book Description

This handbook provides a frame of reference for the global challenges facing higher education leadership today. Focusing on recommendations and directions for the future rather than simply a recap of measures taken during the COVID-19 pandemic, the contributors also delve into contexts such as the climate crisis, issues of diversity, equity and inclusion, digitalisation, funding and marketisation, the war in Ukraine and China-Taiwan and Hong Kong tensions. They collate a systematic, global view of higher education systems during the pandemic and beyond, and explore possibilities for the future, providing recommendations for "the new normal". With contributions from across six continents, the book will be of interest to students and scholars of higher education and governance, university leaders, government and accreditation bodies, and anyone else interested in reflecting on the past few years in higher education and the road ahead.

The Future of Work in the United States


Book Description

This book presents and analyzes how restructuring processes due to technological change are reflected and processed in political and public discourses in the United States in the most recent past. More specifically, this work examines how the themes of automation, digitization, and the platform economy and their impact on the future of work are reflected in public discourse through the analysis of journalistic articles, and political discourse through the analysis of congressional hearings. Public and political discourses, as well as economic narratives, shape our understanding of certain developments such as technological change, our behavior more generally, and societal support of said developments. Therefore, it is vital to investigate and analyze these discourses in order to show how technological change is perceived and evaluated today. This work draws from concepts and methods of several different disciplines, most notably using a combination of corpus-linguistic methods and exemplary textual analysis. This way, this work stands as truly interdisciplinary, with a unique approach to the quantitative and qualitative examination of discourses.

Project Startup #1


Book Description

“The perfect book for any young entrepreneur!” —Mark Cuban, entrepreneur and Shark Tank investor Inspired by the incredible true story of two friends who landed a deal on Shark Tank. Sixth-grade students-turned-entrepreneurs are on a mission to save the world, one bug at a time, in this fun and empowering illustrated novel filled with facts! Hallie and Jaye are two very different sixth graders who both attend Brookdale Middle School. When they get paired as partners for their business class pitch competition, it's not exactly a perfect match. Jaye doesn't want to be seen with the kid who was called "Bug Girl" after eating a fried cricket during a trip to the zoo! But they're stuck with each other, and together try to come up with creative ways to sell bugs as food. As the competition heats up, can Hallie and Jaye make the judges say "Bug appétit!" or will they only hear crickets? Based on the true story of a sustainable protein start-up company, this relatable illustrated novel is a heartwarming reimagining for any middle-grade reader interested in STEM, entrepreneurship, or fitting in and finding friends. Bonus material includes a Cricket Cookie Recipe in the back of the book as well as an interview with the creators. Chirps founders Rose Wang and Laura D'Asaro met as freshmen at Harvard University and cooked up the concept of selling chips made with cricket flour to help Americans feel more comfortable eating bugs. Together, Rose and Laura appeared on the TV show Shark Tank to pitch their idea and landed a deal with Mark Cuban. Chirps chips are now sold in stores across the nation.
