En esta conversación con Andrew McAfee, cofundador y codirector del Initiative on the Digital Economy del MIT, exploramos cómo las empresas pueden integrar la Inteligencia Artificial (IA) para generar valor real, más allá de la innovación superficial.McAfee define el error más común en la adopción de la IA: dedicar demasiado tiempo a la planificación, la formación de comités y la reflexión sin llegar a la implementación. Por ello, lo más importante es empezar a usar la IA y monitorear su funcionamiento.Descubrirás las claves para una integración exitosa:• Maestría Digital: La combinación esencial de Capacidades Digitales (inversión efectiva en tecnología) y Capacidades de Liderazgo (una visión que impulse la transformación).• Priorización y Medición: La importancia de alinear las oportunidades de IA con las prioridades estratégicas de la organización y establecer indicadores de avance (KPIs) claros.• Adopción Obligatoria: El éxito en la adopción de la IA debe ser un OKR (Objetivo y Resultado Clave) en la evaluación de desempeño de los empleados.Si tu organización busca transformar la experiencia del cliente, explotar operaciones centrales o reinventar modelos de negocio a través de la IA, en este episodio encontrarás un marco estratégico para una ejecución que perdure.

Minstens 25 Palestyne is Woensdag dood in vier Israeliese lugaanvalle in 'n deel van Gaza onder Hamas-beheer. Medici sê 10 mense is dood in die Gazastad-voorstad Zeitoun, twee in Shejaia-voorstad en die res in twee afsonderlike aanvalle in Khan Younis. Die Israeliese weermag sê sy magte het Hamas-teikens getref nadat hulle op sy troepe geskiet het, in stryd met die byna ses weke oue wapenstilstand. Geen Israeliese magte is beseer nie. Al die aanvalle was ver van 'n ooreengekome denkbeeldige "geel lyn" wat die gebiede onder Israeliese en Palestynse beheer skei. SkyNews se Adam Parsons berig uit Jerusalem.

A Gaza la pioggia è stata più rapida delle risoluzioni. Nelle ultime ventiquattro ore le tende di Khan Yunis e Deir al-Balah sono crollate sotto il vento, i campi dell'Unrwa allagati, diciotto siti dichiarati “inabitabili”. Alla parrocchia della Sacra Famiglia, più di quattrocento persone cercano riparo mentre i vicoli intorno diventano fango. Eppure l'IDF ha confermato nuovi colpi d'artiglieria nella zona centrale: il “cessate il fuoco sostanziale” si incrina fra le sirene e l'acqua che entra dai teloni sfondati. La situazione sanitaria precipita: l'Oms parla di cinquemila bambini in lista d'attesa per interventi essenziali, gli ospedali da campo giordani ed egiziani sospendono attività per mancanza di carburante, la diarrea infantile supera i diciassettemila casi settimanali. La guerra resta nel corpo dei bambini più di qualunque voto al Palazzo di Vetro. Dalle carceri arrivano notizie ancora peggiori. Medici per i Diritti Umani–Israele aggiorna a novantotto i morti in custodia dal 2023 e segnala altre quattordici persone scomparse senza notizie alle famiglie. Ex detenuti rilasciati ieri raccontano acqua razionata, luce accesa ventiquattr'ore, numeri al posto dei nomi. Sul piano politico Netanyahuì ha ribadito che Israele manterrà la “responsabilità di sicurezza” su Gaza «per tutto il tempo necessario», smentendo nei fatti l'architettura negoziale in discussione. Ai valichi, la normalità è l'intermittenza: Kerem Shalom ha aperto solo per sette ore, chiudendo con duecento camion di aiuti bloccati lato egiziano, comprese le macchine destinate alla ricerca degli ostaggi. E l'Europa manda segnali opposti: Berlino riapre all'export militare, mentre Dublino definisce la mossa «incompatibile con le garanzie umanitarie». In questo scenario, il voto dell'Onu esta un esercizio lontano.

Was the Italian Renaissance only for men? While history remembers the names of Michelangelo, Leonardo, and the Medici, one woman's story of power, art, and ambition rivals them all. In this episode, we uncover the life of Isabella d'Este, the First Lady of the Renaissance, with acclaimed historical novelist Sarah Dunant. Discover the incredible true story of the woman who ran a state, built a world-class art collection, and navigated a dangerous marriage—all while a secret disease swept through Europe, changing her destiny forever.Join us as celebrated author Sarah Dunant, a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, discusses her groundbreaking new novel, The Marchesa. Dunant shares how a simple question from her teenage daughter—"Where were the women?"—sparked a two-decade journey to uncover the forgotten stories of Renaissance women. This episode reveals the fascinating life of Isabella d'Este, a political mastermind and fashion icon who was brilliantly educated in humanist culture. From an early age, she was a force to be reckoned with, known for her sharp intellect and unshakeable confidence. Dunant explains how Isabella became a pioneer of female art patronage, commissioning works from the greatest artists of her time and building a collection that was the envy of popes and kings.We dive deep into the thousands of letters preserved in the Mantua archive, which provide an unprecedented look into Isabella's mind. These documents reveal her cunning diplomacy as she ran the city-state of Mantua while her husband was away at war. We also explore her intense rivalry with her notorious sister-in-law, Lucretia Borgia. In a particularly captivating part of the interview, Dunant sheds light on a shocking and little-known aspect of the era: the history of syphilis in Italy. She details how the "French pox" arrived from the New World and secretly ravaged the European aristocracy, revealing a stunning discovery from her research that suggests Isabella knew her husband had the disease and took control of her own fate. Finally, hear about the author's own journey to publish Sarah Dunant The Marchesa, a beautifully illustrated hybrid of history and fiction that she was so passionate about, she decided to publish it herself.About Our Guest:Sarah Dunant is an award-winning British novelist, journalist, and critic. She is a recognized expert on the Italian Renaissance and has written six novels set in the period, all focused on bringing the vibrant and often hidden lives of women to the forefront. Her latest book, The Marchesa, is a culmination of years of deep archival research into the life of the extraordinary Isabella d'Este.Timestamps:(01:12) "Where Were the Women?": Sarah Dunant's Journey to the Renaissance(05:32) Introducing Isabella d'Este: The First Woman of the World(10:08) Uncovering History: Inside the Gonzaga Archive in Mantua(14:18) The First Female Art Patron: Building Isabella's Legendary Collection(20:23) A Rivalry of Style and Power: Isabella d'Este and Lucretia Borgia(24:52) The Past Talks Back: How Fiction Can Challenge Our View of History(31:36) The Secret Disease That Forged a Marriage: The History of Syphilis in the Renaissance(38:15) The Author's Own Battle: The Journey to Self-Publishing The Marchesa(41:21) What's Next for Sarah Dunant?Learn More & Episode Resources:Get your copy of The Marchesa by Sarah DunantLearn more about Sarah Dunant's work

Friends of the Rosary,Today, November 4th, the Church celebrates the Memorial of St. Charles Borromeo (1538-1584), bishop.Charles Borromeo, the bishop of Milan, came from a wealthy, aristocratic Italian family. He lived a lavish life, emulating the lifestyles of the rich and famous of the Renaissance in the sixteenth century. His maternal uncle, from the powerful Medici family, was the pope, who would later make him a cardinal-deacon at the age of twenty-three.When Count Frederick Borromeo passed away, many people thought that Charles, who became the head of the Borromeo family, would give up his clerical life and marry now that he had inherited the title. But he did not. He became a priest.In 1570, a famine erupted, and Charles Borromeo took the lead, bringing food to feed three thousand people a day for three months. Six years later, a two-year plague swept through the region. Borromeo mobilized priests, religious, and lay volunteers to feed and care for the 60,000 to 70,000 people.During the plague, he walked barefoot in the public streets, carrying a cross, with a rope around his neck, offering himself as a victim to God for the transgressions of his people.He personally cared for many who were sick and dying. In the process, Borromeo incurred huge debts, depleting his resources to feed, clothe, administer medical care, and build shelters for thousands of plague-stricken people.As if the natural disasters facing Borromeo were not enough, a disgruntled priest attempted to assassinate him. As Charles knelt in prayer before the altar, the would-be assassin pulled a gun and shot him. At first, Charles thought he was dying, but the bullet only bruised him.He died, dressed in sackcloth and ashes, holding a picture of Jesus Crucified in his hands.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

When Reason Became Unreasonable. Week 31: Machievelli's The Prince and Rousseau's The Social Contract

Adventure On Deck

This week on Crack the Book marks a jarring shift in tone — and in time. After months steeped in medieval imagination, we start there with Niccolò Machiavelli and end firmly in the Enlightenment with Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Their works, The Prince (1513) and The Social Contract (1762), straddle that uneasy moment when faith and hierarchy gave way to “rational” thinking. And wow, does it sound different. I didn't realize how accustomed my ear had become to the older world until now.First up, The Prince. I had only known it practically caricatured as a manual for ruthless rulers. Instead, I found that Machiavelli offers sharp, almost Aristotelian observations on how power works. Writing amid the chaos of Renaissance Italy — with popes, princes, and mercenaries vying for control — he tries to help leaders (well, Lorenzo di Medici) survive reality, not reinvent it. His advice is startlingly pragmatic: if you must be cruel, do it swiftly; keep the people's goodwill by leaving their money and families alone; and above all, don't be hated. Virtue matters less than the appearance of virtue — but even so, he respects human nature enough to work with it rather than against it. For someone with such a bad reputation, he's refreshingly honest.Before we move to Rousseau, I spend some time reviewing the Enlightenment: what it was, when it was, and how it changed thinking and therefore every other thing in the world! I think it's a necessary bridge between these two time periods and books.On to Rousseau. Two centuries and one worldview later, The Social Contract begins not with observation but with imagination: “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains.” Rousseau builds an elaborate theory of how people ought to behave, then blames reality when they don't. His faith in reason and “natural goodness” feels detached from the messiness of human life that Machiavelli understood so well. And by the time he turns his ire on the Church in his final pages, the tone borders on bitter — foreshadowing the excesses of the French Revolution.After this week, I find myself mourning the grounded wisdom of the Middle Ages. Machiavelli may be cynical, but at least he's real. Rousseau feels like a man disappointed that humanity refuses to fit his theory.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate -

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, Stewart Alsop sits down with Leo Guinan to talk about the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, his vision of AI as a tool for personal agency, and the Bottega model inspired by the Medici workshops as a way to reimagine networks, mastery, and transformation. The conversation moves through themes of exponential versus linear growth in the economy, the decline of manufacturing in Ohio, China's rise through complexity and control of supply chains, the dangers of time violence and information asymmetry, and the potential of prediction markets to reshape politics and business. Leo also shares his creative project Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future, which he's building as a group art experiment on Substack — you can find it at hitchhikertothefuture.substack.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:05 Stewart introduces Leo Guinan and they discuss the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, personal agency revolution, and the Bottega model rooted in Medici workshops.00:10 Leo reflects on networks vs. individuals, the genius–insanity line, and how exponential growth clashes with linear wages in Silicon Valley.00:15 They explore economic tension, the decline of wages, mastery in Bottegas, and the vision of decentralized innovation hubs.00:20 Conversation turns to Argentina, decentralization, and Leo's Ohio roots, tying local manufacturing decline, Anchor Hocking, and drug addiction to global shifts.00:25 Leo shares his frustration with student debt, the fakeness of the economy, and neuroses encoded into AI models like Gemini.00:30 They examine China's manufacturing dominance, mercantilism, complexity inflation, and the concept of time violence.00:35 Leo explains infinite predictors, cooperation, and consciousness as network awareness, citing Creator HQ as conscious technology.00:40 Discussion moves to rigorous mysticism, deterministic transformation, probabilistic futures, and the monkey and the pedestal metaphor.00:45 They analyze 1971 as a break between linear and exponential growth, compute access, surveillance states, and the power of human spite.00:50 Leo imagines algorithm manipulation, local AI, and prediction markets, referencing futarchy and political false choices.00:55 They close with Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future, Leo's group art project on Substack, and the rediscovery of ancient wisdom.Key InsightsThe heart of Leo Guinan's work is what he calls the Manhattan Project for Human Potential, a recognition that artificial intelligence isn't just about technology but about a personal agency revolution. He frames AI as a mirror that reveals how networks of people, rather than isolated individuals, drive intelligence and creativity.The Bottega model, inspired by the Medici workshops, is central to Leo's vision. By gathering diverse minds in tight-knit communities where mastery and exploration thrive, Bottegas become nodes of transformation — miniature Silicon Valleys where reality is fluid and imagination creates exponential value.A recurring theme is the structural flaw of modern economies: wages grow linearly while technology and capital compound exponentially. This creates systemic inequality, leaving most people crushed by rising costs while the top flourishes, a dynamic Leo witnessed firsthand in both Silicon Valley and his Ohio hometown.Leo introduces complexity inflation and time violence as hidden forces of the system. Complexity is rewarded over simplicity, making technology harder for everyday people, while time violence lets some actors leverage others' time to their own advantage, turning the economy into an arms race of asymmetries.Consciousness, for Leo, is about networks that are aware of themselves. He praises simple, embodied tools like Creator HQ that respect users' lived reality and contrasts them with AI systems unmoored from the real world. True mastery, he argues, is embodied, consistent, and grounded in human transformation rather than probabilistic shortcuts.Prediction markets emerge as a future-facing tool, offering a way to test decisions, hedge uncertainty, and surface blind spots. Leo envisions organizations running internal prediction markets and even rethinking politics by holding leaders accountable to explicit promises rather than vague partisan change.At the personal level, Leo is experimenting with transformation through his Hitchhiker's Guide to the Future project on Substack, a group art process that forces him out of his engineering comfort zone. He ties this back to ancient wisdom — from Buddha to Renaissance workshops — showing that the process of transformation has always been a deeply human practice we must continually rediscover.

In this first of two programmes, Hannah French explores the lives of two 16th Century Popes: Leo X and Clement VII, and the music that surrounded them.Giovanni & Giulio were cousins, brought up together in the wealthy and influential Florentine household of the Medicis. Giovanni's father, Lorenzo "The Magnificent" and his brother Giuliano were the rulers of the Florentine Republic. In 1478, though, Giuliano de Medici was murdered in Florence Cathedral as part of the Pazzi Conspiracy. As a result, young Giulio was brought up by his uncle. Both boys were guided into a career in the church, and because of the financial and political backing that came with the Medici name, it was clear they were both destined for high office.In 1513, Giovanni de Medici was elected as Pope Leo X. He made Rome a strong political power, and as a generous patron of the arts, he helped writers, poets, painters and musicians of the High Renaissance to flourish. But, his lavish tastes depleted the papal treasury, and made many enemies who accused him of being "engrossed in idle and selfish amusements". By 1517, would-be reformers in northern Europe had had enough of papal excesses, and Martin Luther published his 95 theses which were to be the start of the Protestant Reformation. The young Giovanni de Medici was said to have had a fine ear and a melodious voice, and "loved music to the pitch of fanaticism". It's possible he learned from the great Heinrich Isaac, who was the shining musical light in late 15th Century Florence. As Pope Leo X he expanded the Sistine Chapel choir, and procured the services of professional singers, instrumentalists and composers from all over Europe.

Hannah French with the second of two programmes exploring the lives of two 16th Century Popes: Leo X and Clement VII, and the music that surrounded them.Having been brought up together in the wealthy and influential Florentine household of the Medicis, cousins Giovanni & Giulio were always destined for greatness.As Pope Leo X, Giovanni was a lavish patron of the arts. He sanctioned major renovations on St Peter's Basilica in Rome, extended the Sistine Chapel Choir, promoted the study of Greek, Arabic & Hebrew, commissioned works from artists such as Raphael & Peruzzi, and maintained a private orchestra as well as the official papal musicians. In order to fund these lavish artistic interests, Leo X encouraged the purchase of indulgences - remissions of the temporal punishment for sins – which could only be afforded by the most wealthy. Leo was also portrayed by his opponents as a man of gross excess; there were suggestions of sexual impropriety, favouritism and immorality, all of which were fuel to the fire of the burgeoning Protestant Reformation in northern Europe. Needless to say, Leo spent way above the papal means, and when he died suddenly in 1521, the papal treasury was 400,000 ducats in debt. Leo's right-hand man throughout his papacy was his beloved cousin, Giulio de Medici. Within three months of Leo's election as Pope, Giulio had been made Archbishop of Florence, and just three more months down the line, he was appointed Cardinal of Santa Maria in Dominica. By 1517, Cardinal Giulio was made Vice-Chancellor of the Church (ie, second in command). He became deeply involved in the politics of England, France and the Holy Roman Empire, which would eventually backfire on him spectacularly…When Cardinal Giulio was elected to the heady heights of the Papacy in 1523, as Pope Clement VII, little did he know the struggles that lay ahead. There was already the threat of the Lutherans from northern Europe and the Turks were making in-roads into the east. Plus, there was the childish squabbling of Holy Roman Emperor Charles V and King Francis I of France, who both demanded the Pope choose a side, leading to the Sack of Rome in 1527. And six years later, he had Henry VIII's divorce to deal with. All of this while having to impose austerity measures in an attempt to pay off some of the debts left by his own cousin!Like his cousin, Pope Clement VII was also a gifted musician. It's likely he too learned from the great composer Heinrich Isaac while growing up in Florence, and over the years he had dealings with the likes of Nicolas Gombert, Jean Mouton, Philippe Verdelot and Costanzo Festa as the music of the High Renaissance swirled around him.

Send us a textHeadlines are loud; useful reporting is quiet and sharp. We sit with senior reporter Andy Medici (American City Business Journals) to unpack how he turns federal policy, workplace shifts and emerging tech into stories that help entrepreneurs, executives and local leaders make better decisions. From remote work battles and labor rulings to AI's promises and pitfalls, Andy shares how he filters national news into practical insights across 45 markets—and why integrity is still the most valuable asset in business journalism.We dig into the anatomy of a solid pitch and the value of true exclusives, especially for Business Journal audiences hungry for data and actionable context. Andy explains what transforms a company announcement into a reader-first story, why inbox blasts fail, and how PR pros can become indispensable sources by bringing credible datasets, trend analysis and timely access. He also opens up about navigating public skepticism of media, the line between journalism and commentary and the simple rule that earns trust: ask tough questions fairly, document outreach and update with new facts.The conversation takes a thoughtful turn on AI in the newsroom. Andy is frank about what current tools can and cannot do, why hallucinations are a legal and ethical nonstarter and where he sees real opportunities—small automations, cleaner data and better workflows. He's watching the second-order effects of massive data-center investment: power, permits, water, land use and local economies.

Giulio Busi"Il cantico dell'umiltà"Vita di San FrancescoMondadori Editorewww.mondadori.itIlletterato, sprovveduto, sognatore, Francesco d'Assisi è il «santo» per eccellenza. Ma è anche, nell'opinione comune, un personaggio fuori dalla storia, relegato nella sfera del misticismo e dell'utopia. Come mai, allora, la Chiesa decide di innalzarlo agli altari a soli due anni dalla morte, dopo un processo di canonizzazione tra i più brevi nella vicenda millenaria del cristianesimo? Francesco ribelle e antisistema o docile strumento nelle mani del potere ecclesiastico? Giulio Busi passa al vaglio le cronache dell'epoca, s'immerge nel mare sconfinato dell'agiografia, e poi dipinge un Francesco inedito, vigoroso, a tratti mite, più spesso provocatorio e intransigente. Quando è costretto, infatti, sa obbedire e accettare l'autorità. Ma è una scelta che gli costa, e da cui, ogni volta, riparte per inseguire la verità. Mentre attorno a lui la società scopre, e soffre, l'economia del mercato e del profitto, Francesco accoglie i lebbrosi, si unisce ai mendicanti, rivendica per sé un posto tra gli ultimi. Nei primi tempi, i benpensanti lo dileggiano, lo considerano un folle. Intanto, però, il suo carisma attrae sempre più seguaci. Nella primavera del 1212 Chiara d'Assisi, nobile per nascita, lascia i propri beni e la sontuosa casa paterna per seguire l'esempio di Francesco. È l'inizio di una consonanza spirituale che durerà tutta la vita. Ai «fratelli» che hanno cominciato a raccogliersi attorno al Poverello si aggiungono le «sorelle minori», ispirate da Chiara. Nel giro di pochi anni, il successo del movimento è travolgente. E i dubbi del fondatore diventano sempre più angosciosi. La Chiesa ha bisogno di un Ordine francescano forte, efficiente, solido. Ma lui riuscirà a difendere povertà e umiltà, a mantenere la semplicità delle origini? Al termine della sua esistenza, così breve e intensa, Francesco è malato, e deluso. Sembra sconfitto, ma nel momento più buio detta il Cantico di Frate Sole, splendido, gioioso inizio della letteratura italiana. Ringraziamento è l'esordio, inno la conclusione. Francesco lo sa, lo ha sempre saputo. La sorgente è una sola, un unico fine ha il creato. E ora il suo Cantico è libero di percorrere il vasto mondo. Che con lui se ne vada il dolore, assieme a lui si diffonda la lode.Giulio Busi (Bologna, 1960) è professore ordinario alla Freie Universität di Berlino e presidente della Fondazione Palazzo Bondoni Pastorio. Ha scritto di mistica ebraica, di storia rinascimentale, della filosofia di Giovanni Pico della Mirandola. Collaboratore di lungo corso delle pagine culturali del «Sole – 24 Ore», ha uno stile letterario inconfondibile, incalzante e, al tempo stesso, documentatissimo.

Send us a textRevisit A to Z of French Herbs - Basil - Basilic Basil, or basilic in French, is one of the world's most beloved herbs, and in France it holds a particularly fascinating place in culinary history. Often called Herbes Royales — the Royal Herb — basil carries a name rooted in royalty, mythology, and legend. From its beginnings in India to its journey through the Roman Empire and eventual embrace in French cuisine, basil has always been more than just a kitchen staple; it's a herb steeped in stories, tradition, and delicious flavor.In this episode, we explore how basil became part of French cooking, thanks in part to Catherine de Medici and her Italian entourage, who introduced this fragrant herb to the French court. We'll discover its many names, from Fabrego in Provence to Sweet Basil, Thai Basil, and even Purple Basil, each variety with its own unique aroma and culinary use. Along the way, you'll learn how basil has been used not just in food, but also in religion, folklore, and even medicine.Of course, no discussion of basil in France would be complete without talking about pistou — the Provençal cousin of pesto. We'll dive into the story of this fragrant green sauce, how it differs from Italian pesto, and its starring role in traditional soupe au pistou, a comforting vegetable and noodle soup from Provence and the Côte d'Azur. Whether you're cooking at home or dreaming of French markets filled with fragrant bunches of basil, this episode will transport you straight to the heart of Provence.So, if you've ever wondered how basil found its way into French kitchens, why it's called the Royal Herb, or how to use it in classic French dishes, this episode is for you.

In this episode, she sat down with historian Caroline Dodds Pennock for a wide-ranging conversation - from the market queens of 18th century West Africa to the everyday working women of the Industrial Revolution, to the women who laid the foundations for the computer industry.
