Umělá inteligence jako (nové) médium


Kolektivní monografie Umělá inteligence jako (nové) médium analyzuje dopady takzvané umělé inteligence (analytické i generativní) na současnou kulturu, od vysoké ke každodenní. Zkoumá, jak se v dnešní době proměňují způsoby dělání, chápání a používání obrazů, zvuků nebo textů i širší společenské a politické implikace těchto proměn. Ohniskem jejího zájmu jsou procesy a praktiky tvořivosti, představivosti a vynalézavosti. Odmítá je interpretovat prostřednictvím zjednodušujících protikladů mezi lidským a technickým, ale zdůrazňuje naopak jejich propletenost a význam specifických historických bio-socio-technických konfigurací, jež definují formy naší subjektivity i pospolitosti.Autorky a autoři (Tomáš Dvořák, Martin Flašar, Vít Gvoždiak, Vladimír Havlík, Jana Horáková, Martin Charvát, Veronika Klusáková, Richard Müller, Noemi Purkrábková, Kateřina Svatoňová) představují bytostně interdisciplinární sondy do oblasti syntetických médií, vycházejíce z oborů literární, hudební a filmové vědy, filosofie a epistemologie, teorie médií a komunikace, teorie digitální kultury a umění. Jejich studie se zaměřují mimo jiné na problematiku reprezentace umělé inteligence ve filmové a televizní tvorbě, kompozitní fotografii, multimediální představení, strojové vidění a rozpoznávání vzorů, generativní kurátorství, generativní hudbu či na jazykové a literární kompetence velkých jazykových modelů.

Háború


Bob Woodward, a kétszeres Pulitzer-díjas újságíró - akinek tényfeltáró riportjai a Watergate-botrányban Richard Nixon elnök bukásához vezettek - most újra megemeli a függönyt, hogy bepillantást engedjen a 21. század legveszélyesebb politikai játszmáiba. A Háború lebilincselő, belső körökből származó beszámoló az Egyesült Államok, Ukrajna, Oroszország, Izrael és a Közel-Kelet válságainak hátteréről - és arról, hogyan próbálják a világ vezetői elkerülni a harmadik világháborút. A kötetben Joe Biden és tanácsadói zárt ajtók mögötti tárgyalásain keresztül követhetjük az ukrajnai háború és a közel-keleti konfliktusok diplomáciai sakkjátszmáit. Feltűnik Vlagyimir Putyin, Benjámín Netanjáhú, Volodimir Zelenszkij - és az árnyékban mozgó Donald Trump, aki egyre nyíltabban készül visszatérni a hatalomba a 2024-es választásokon. Woodward elképesztő részletességgel tárja fel, milyen kemény és törékeny döntések születnek Washingtonban, hogy megelőzzenek egy nukleáris katasztrófát.

Giving Up Is Unforgivable


We''re in this together. For the past two years, Joyce Vance has signed off posts on her chart-topping Substack ''Civil Discourse'' with these four words. In that time, she''s guided readers through a continued erosion of democratic norms, the unprecedented felony conviction of an ex-president, and the approaching spectre of a second Trump Administration. Now, that it''s upon us, Vance helps us understand how to avoid burnout and despair and exercise the democratic muscles we need to save the Republic. GIVING UP IS UNFORGIVABLE is a clarion call to action - putting our current crisis in historical context and sketching out a vision for where we go next. Vance''s message is hopeful at its heart, while acknowledging the daunting challenges that lay ahead. She is the Constitutional Law professor you never knew you needed, explaining the legal context, the political history, and the practical reasons that the rule of law still matters, while also empowering you to do something from the small (that conversation you''ve been meaning to have with your uncle, volunteering for your favourite political cause) to the big (starting a grassroots movement, running for political office). Consider this the birth of a countermovement to Project 2025, a rallying cry for citizen engagement to counter the 2nd Trump Administration and save American democracy.

The A Word


The A Word provides a feminist perspective on the history of abortion, working to end the taboos that surround this procedure—and the word itself. The A Word champions the women advocating for free and legal access to the seventy-three million abortions performed around the world every year, more than half of which require women to resort to underground procedures that put their lives at risk. This global history defines the term and the practice of abortion as it exists today and tells the stories of women all over the world engaged in the fight to take back control of their bodies.   From the Indigenous use of abortive plants before colonization to the complicated legacy of Margaret Sanger, to modern advocates like Maria Antonieta Alcalde Castro, Wendy Davis, and Simone Veil, the book shines a light on pivotal moments and figures of the abortion struggle and asks: Why do poor women fare worse when trying to access abortion? How was abortion criminalized? Who profits from its illegality?  The A Word reflects on how the struggle for reproductive justice became a movement that has defined our time. It is a fight that has united feminists across continents and decades to secure safe access to a choice that recent history has shown we cannot take for granted.

Cardinal Wolsey


The Wolseys of Suffolk date to Anglo-Saxon times. The earliest notice of a Wolsey as inhabitant of Ipswich is Thomas Wolsey’s father, Robert. He was a successful small businessman and married a Joan Daundy. Thomas was probably born in 1471 in an inn, and was almost certainly baptised in St Mary at the Elms church, Ipswich.Wolsey graduated from university and then his climb to power was extremely fast. He entered the royal household as the chaplain to King Henry VII. When Henry VIII ascended to the throne, Wolsey became his almoner, which gave him access to the king’s council. Henry was very impressed with Wolsey’s work, and Thomas gained many important clerical positions. In 1515, Wolsey became Lord Chancellor of England. Thomas Wolsey’s most famous peace treaty was signed between Henry VIII and Francis I of France at the glorious Field of Cloth of Gold in 1520.Henry had not produced a male heir. A woman called Anne Boleyn came on the scene. Henry began to think that she could mother him a son. The king asked Wolsey to seek a divorce from his first wife. He tried his outmost, as always, but the Pope kept delaying the matter. Wolsey failed and fell out of favour with Henry. He was charged with treason and escorted to the Tower of London. On his way, Thomas became very frail and sadly, on 29 November 1530 he died at Leicester Abbey.

Romans Bible Study


Christians in the first century lived in a world ruled by Rome. The vast size of the Roman Empire meant that it incorporated many different people groups who followed many different religions. Christians were thus often confronted with practices mandated by the local authorities where they lived that went against their faith in Jesus. But even more problematic, they were also often confronted with worldviews and systems of belief that went against their faith.This was especially true of the believers who lived in the capital city of Rome. So it was that when Paul decided to visit the city, he first sent them a letter outlining the key principles and "doctrines" of the Christian faith. Paul explained what humans are really like (sinful), what God has done to provide an escape from the consequences of humanity''s sin, and what a lifestyle that goes out of a Christian worldview looks like. Today, we need to know the same! We need to have a deep understanding of what we believe so we know how to respond when faced with other beliefs that go against Christ.Each study in the NIV Application Commentary Resources series employs a three-step process to help you understand both the historical meaning of a biblical text and its relevance in modern times. The original meaning section reveals the questions and concerns the author was addressing. The past to present section then explains what significance the original audience would have found in the passage and what significance you can find in it today. Finally, the questions that accompany each section will help you specifically apply the author''s words and teachings and find meaning in them for what you are facing in your life.Lessons:The Gospel of Righteousness by Faith (Romans 1–32; 3:21–26)Addicted to Sin (Romans 2:1–3:20)The Righteousness of God (Romans 3:21–4:25)Peace and Hope (Romans 5:1–21)Freedom from Sin (Romans 6:1–23)Freedom from the Law (Romans 7:1–25)Life in the Spirit (Romans 8:1–39)The Problem of Israel (Romans 9:1–10:21)Israel''s Future (Romans 11:1–36)The Transformed Life (Romans 12:1–21)Love and Law (Romans 13:1–14)Life Together (Romans 14:1–16:27)

The Winners Curse


Why do people cooperate with one another when they have no incentive to do so? Why do we hold onto possessions of little value? And why is the winner of an auction so often disappointed? Over thirty years ago, Richard Thaler introduced readers to behavioral economics in his seminal Anomalies column, written with collaborators including Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky. These provocative articles challenged the fundamental idea at the heart of economics that people are selfish, rational optimizers, and provided the foundation for what became behavioral economics. That was then. Now, three decades later, Thaler has teamed up with economist Alex Imas to write a new book. Every chapter starts with an original Anomaly, retaining the spirit of its timestamp. Then, shifting to the present, they provide current updates to each, asking how the original findings have held up and how the field has evolved since then. It turns out these findings still show up almost everywhere. Anomalies pop up in people's decisions to save for retirement and how they carry outstanding credit card debt. Even experts fail to optimize. The key concept of loss aversion explains missed putts by golf pros and the selection of which stocks to sell by portfolio managers. In this era of meme stocks and Dogecoin, it is hard to defend the view that financial markets are highly efficient. The good news, however, is that the anomalies have got much funnier. With both readability and rigor, The Winner's Curse illuminates these ideas for anyone - from those with a cursory understanding of economics to fellow economists. Each chapter provides a key insight into human behavior so readers learn how to better understand the choices made by their friends, colleagues, and customers, and might just become better at making decisions themselves.

Ide o základný právny predpis pre oblasť riadenia ľudských zdrojov v tzv. civilnej štátnej službe. Od nadobudnutia účinnosti bol zákon novelizovaný 29-krát, pričom išlo o čiastkové novelizácie nadväzujúce na zmeny v súvisiacich právnych predpisoch prioritne zamerané na riešenie problémov spojených s uplatňovaním právnej úpravy štátnozamestnaneckých vzťahov.

The Geopolitics of Fear


The intensified securitization of the borderlands between Europe and the Middle East/North Africa over the past decade has turned the Mediterranean Sea into a graveyard. This book delves into the most vulnerable, yet understudied, area of the EU's anti-immigrant security regime: the port cities in border zones on major refugee routes. Turam shifts the predominant focus from the global scale of fear to the urban scale of native–migrant solidarity in Greece and Sicily—Europe's two major entrance points in the East and Central Mediterranean. Building upon a rapidly growing scholarship on emotional geographies and affective geopolitics, Turam brings emotions to the center and emphasizes their role in forming, transforming, contesting, interrupting, and even evading the securitization of migration. Within the context of rising racism, nativism, and Islamophobia, readers will discover surprising and inspiring acts of day-to-day resistance to securitization empowered by a sense of safety and local trust, as well as cooperation between municipalities, pro-migrant locals, and asylum-seekers. Uncovering how racialized migrants become the catalyst of transformation from the violent legacy of borderlands to peaceful resistance, the ethnography reveals how intense emotions affect pro-migrant practices, contribute to the formation of safe places, and open the way for dynamic Black and Muslim migrant activism and solidarity at Europe's racial borders.

Weimar Under the Palms


The story of the German exiles—and cultural titans—who settled in Pacific Palisades and influenced American culture.    In the early twentieth century, Pacific Palisades was home to America’s most modern film studio of the time as well as the proposed site of the world’s largest Christian center. But by the end of the 1920s, the Los Angeles neighborhood had become the refuge of the rich and beautiful as German and Austrian filmmakers, among them Salka and Berthold Viertel, settled there. They were soon followed by cultural and intellectual giants of the Weimar Republic who were fleeing Europe, such as Max Reinhardt, Hanns Eisler, or Max Horkheimer. These great minds turned Pacific Palisades into a “Weimar under the palm trees.” Though many were successful in exile—including Vicki Baum, Thomas Mann, and Lion Feuchtwanger—others felt as if they were in a “sun prison” far from home.   Recounting a story of glamor and great minds, Thomas Blubacher tells of the history of German-speaking exiles that is still alive there today, going on a foray through the film industry, taking us on a journey to this special place that was so recently devastated by fire. Many of the homes in this book have now gone, but Marta Feuchtwanger’s Villa Aurora and the Thomas Mann house still stand as a testament to luck, resilience, and history.

The Fate of the Americas


Despite twenty-first-century fears of nuclear conflagrations with North Korea, Russia, and Iran, the Cuban Missile Crisis is the closest the United States has come to nuclear war. That history has largely been a bilateral narrative of the US-USSR struggle for postwar domination, with Cuba as the central staging ground—a standard account that obscures the shock waves that reverberated throughout Latin America. This first hemispheric examination of the Cuban Missile Crisis shows how leaders and ordinary citizens throughout the region experienced it, revealing that, had the missiles been activated, millions of people across Latin America would have been at grave risk. Traversing the region from the Southern Cone to Central America, Renata Keller describes the deadly riots that shook Bolivia when news of the Cuban Missile Crisis broke, the naval quarantine that members of Argentina’s armed forces formed around Cuba, the pro-Castro demonstrations organized by Nicaraguan students, and much more. Drawing on a vast array of archival sources from around the hemisphere and world, The Fate of the Americas demonstrates that even at the brink of destruction, Latin Americans played active roles in global politics and inter-American relations.
