Author Jeanette Winterson has been reading and writing about artificial intelligence and its relationship to humans for years. Her new book, a collection of essays called “12 Bytes: How We Got Here. Where We Might Go Next,” explores these themes. Marketplace’s Kimberly Adams speaks with Winterson, who said she wrote the book because she wanted to understand the implications that AI has for humans — the good and the bad, especially when it comes to AI and robotics. And in that space, Winterson said, a lot of the investment is going toward the good.

As Tesla develops its humanoid robot and Facebook — sorry, now Meta — rebrands to signal its focus on the metaverse and an even more virtual world, some might continue to wonder whether an Armageddon that will have artificial intelligence overpowering humans is a possibility. But the novelist Jeanette Winterson is more optimistic. Her more utopian view of an A.I.-enabled future depends on more compassionate technologies and the diversification of the leaders driving innovation, who she says are currently “rich guys with a lot of power, and we can't depend on their benevolence.”In this conversation, Kara and Winterson discuss her latest book, “12 Bytes,” and some of the ways that A.I. will change how we think, love and live. They delve into why Winterson thinks sex bots are the enemy of progress, Silicon Valley's obsession with immortality and how A.I. might change how we die and grieve. And they discuss Mark Zuckerberg, with Winterson saying there's “nothing in his history that suggests he can manage billions of people on the planet using his social media tool.”You can find transcripts (posted midday) and more information for all episodes at nytimes.com/sway, and you can find Kara on Twitter @karaswisher.

The fourth edition of the Rendez-vous littéraires rue Cambon [Literary Rendezvous at Rue Cambon] was held at Somerset House, a leading London arts centre.In conversation with writer Erica Wagner, ambassador and spokesperson for the House Charlotte Casiraghi invited writer Jeanette Winterson to pay tribute to the work of Virginia Woolf. Actress and CHANEL ambassador Keira Knightley opened the discussion by reading an extract from ‘Professions for Women', a speech Virginia Woolf gave to the National Society for Women's Service in 1931.

In twelve witty and insightful essays novelist, memoirist and all-round thinker Jeanette Winterson explores the future of artificial intelligence and what it might mean for the future of humanity. Drawing on mythology, religion, art, history and gender theory as well as on science, Winterson's take on the future of our species is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining. Winterson was in conversation with Victoria Turk, features Editor at Wired magazine. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Alla människor behöver tröst någon gång i livet. Men får att få tröst, behövs det väl någon som ger den till en? Bibliotekarien Elisabeth Skog funderar på om litteraturen kan vara denna någon. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Jag söker i Vårdguiden på begreppet tröst. Det ger 64 träffar, nästan alla handlar om barn. Barn som ska tröstas. Spädbarnskolik och mardrömmar. Plåster på såret. Tröstnappen. Nationalencyklopedin förestavar att tröst är det samma som lindring i sorg eller bekymmer. Ordet finns belagt i äldre fornsvenska. Etymologiskt är det besläktat med tro. Jaha ja. I Svenska Akademiens Ordlista hittar jag 13 sammansättningar med tröst: tröstekälla, tröstlöshet och tröstpris till exempel. Men vad är tröst egentligen och finns det någon definition? Forskning talar om att Tröst innefattar fysiska, psykospirituella och sociokulturella upplevelser, och leder till förbättrad hälsa. Jag förstår också att det ska vara minst två människor inblandade: en som är tröstfärdig, det vill säga mottaglig för tröst, och en givare. Med hjälp av tröstande samtal ska det då uppstå en citat djupt delad känsla av samhörighet. Den tröstfärdiga ska härigenom få hjälp att se på sitt lidande ur ett nytt perspektiv. För att sedan kunna ägna sig åt annat. Kontentan verkar vara att trösten kommer via en annan människa. It takes two alltså. Precis som i tango. När jag var elva år (1974) var jag mycket berörd av Barbro Hörbergs melodiradio-hit Gamla älskade barn det som grep mig mest var dessa rader:  Vilken dag mister en människa barnets rätt till trygghet och tröst och förlåt? Vilken dag betraktas man plötsligt som vuxen och stor och får själv ta hand om sin gråt? Att själv ta hand om sin gråt verkade så outsägligt sorgligt. Jag var nog rädd att mista barndomens tröstprivilegier och tänkte nog också på alla tröstlösa, både unga och gamla solstrålar på parkbänkar och annorstädes där ute. Barbro Hörbergs fråga har hängt med mig sedan dess. När måste man själv ta hand om sin gråt? Och ser man på, nästan 40 år senare dyker svaret upp i Beate Grimsruds bok En dåre fri, en roman om skapande och sjukdom. Huvudpersonen Eli konstaterar att nu får hon värma mjölken själv när hon är vaken om nätterna. Hon säger: "Det är att vara vuxen. Att vara god mot sig själv när det behövs och ingen annan finns till hands." Att kunna trösta sig själv och själv ta hand om sin gråt, kanske inte måste vara något sorgligt eller ens något hotfullt. I psykologen Marta Cullberg Westons bok från 2012 Tröst och reparation finn din egen tröstfunktion finns mycket att hämta för den som vill bli bättre på konsten att ta hand om sin gråt. Det handlar om att bygga upp en inre tröstande instans som fungerar stödjande när det blåser i livet. Marta Cullberg Weston varnar också för självtröst som går snett. När vi tror att vi tröstar oss men är ute på fel spår. Eller fejktröst som vi skulle säga på nusvenska. Varningsflagg för överdrivet intresse för: mat alkohol tabletter droger omåttlig aktivitet shopping Några moderna bubblare att lägga till den listan skulle kunna vara: Manisk renlevnad träning och yoga heminredning Jag är dock inte den som ska kasta första stenen på dem som ägnar sig åt ovan nämnda sysselsättningar. Jag tror att överdrivet undvikande av företeelserna på listan i lika hög grad skulle kunna klassas som bedräglig tröst. Vår förmåga att trösta oss själva grundas, gissa när! Jo, i barndomen. Om föräldrarnas förmåga att trösta är bristfällig får barnet ingen god modell att ta med sig. Man blir då svårare att trösta och stressen kan då lätt citat stegras till en överväldigande känsla av nödställdhet. En överväldigande känsla av nödställdhet. Jag vet inte varför denna mening slår an så djupt hos mig. Marta Weston Cullberg är säkert något viktigt på spåren i sin bok. Ledsamt bara att omslaget pryds av ett snyggt par i en softad omfamning i ljus och fräsch miljö. Budskapet blir lite dubbelt: Finn din egen tröstfunktion, javisst, men först ändå en rejäl parrelation. En gyllene medelväg mellan å ena sidan tröst via en annan person och å andra sidan självtröst måste vara litteraturen. I sin bok Varför vara lycklig när du kan vara normal? beskriver Jeanette Winterson en fruktansvärd uppväxt och hur systematisk läsning av folkbibliotekets skönlitterära bestånd från A till Z räddade livet på henne. När allting är en trasa, när livet suger, säger Winterson så här: "Jag tror på skönlitteratur och på berättelsens kraft [ ... ] Vi kan vända oss till dikten. Vi kan öppna boken. Någon har varit där för vår räkning och dykt efter orden." Visst är det är en trösterik tanke. Någon varit där för vår räkning. Och att denna person formulerat något som nu kan vara mig till tröst, när det är som värst. När jag är i beråd. Detta är en personlig läsning, ett tröstebrev från en författare till mig. Ibland används lyrik för att trösta många på samma gång. Vid stora naturkatastrofer, krigsutbrott, terrordåd händer det att dagstidningarna publicerar en nyskriven tröstdikt av en känd författare. När vi inte orkar mer reportage och faktarutor över antalet döda och skadade kan dikten ta en genväg till förståelse. Och till tröst. Jag tänker på döden varje dag. Vem gör inte det? Poeten Bodil Malmsten gjorde det säkert. Dagens Nyheter publicerade hennes dikt Sorg i början av januari 2005, strax efter tsunamin. Våra intetsägande armar. Vi vill bara hjälpa. Vi är här. Världen deltar i sorgen, står det. Så går det inte till. Sorgen är inte tillgänglig för världens allmänna deltagande. Sorgen är enskild och personlig, sorgen är bara din. Sorgen är bara din skriver hon och just då, paradoxalt nog, delas den med den som läser. Och vi blir mindre ensamma. I någon mån tröstade. Just sådana finesser kännetecknar litteratur av bästa märke. Ingen är där, men från avlägsna orter och tider når oss ändå orden som stillar vår oro. Lägger sig som svalkande händer över våra hettande kinder och svidande ögon.

The Frankfurt data center market is active and poised for growth. Equinix is in a position to be a big part of the growth in the market. This is an episode of HawkTalk, datacenterHawk's series of candid one on one conversations with executives and leaders in the data center industry. If you enjoyed this episode, you can check them all out on our blog. If you'd like to know when we release future episodes, please consider subscribing to our channel. Dan Scarbrough, Lead European Analyst at datacenterHawk, got the chance to sit down with Michael Winterson, the VP of Business Development-EMEA & Jen-Peter Feidner, Managing Director Germany at Equinix to discuss the Frankfurt data center market and Europe as a whole. Below are some of our take aways from the discussion. How COVID has changed business as a whole COVID has changed so much in our world from a business standpoint. In the above video, Michael explains that the biggest issue for Equinix and their customers is how difficult it has been to transition to a socially distanced world. Before the pandemic, Equinix had about 2,000 visitors per day across all their facilities. when the pandemic hit, they severely limited the number of people that could come into their facilities to avoid locking down any of their locations. Michael and the Equinix team are grateful for their customers who adjusted to these new security measures, including having all appointments scheduled and booked in advance. The other major change that Equinix noticed related to COVID was the need to rapidly shift network. Networks have had to adapt quickly to the demand that was produced when so many people shifted to working from home and utilizing virtual meetings. The trend of Asian capacity coming to the Frankfurt market Equinix has seen a good amount of interest and deployment from Asian data center users in the Frankfurt market. These users not only are coming to Equinix but also building their own smaller footprints in the Frankfurt market. Germany is a Central European country and has good commercial relationships beyond the digital industry. Specifically in manufacturing and importing and export. country and that there are good commercial relationships beyond the digital industry. These relationships, alongside the access to the digital industry is a big reason for Asian data center users to enter the Frankfurt market. New entrants and demand growth in the Frankfurt market There is a surge of demand growth in the European markets right now and specifically in Frankfurt. As Jens-Peter Feidner puts it in the above video, “People wouldn't enter a market if there's not enough demand. Everyone looks at where to invest the dollars. Even if money might be cheap and it's a good industry to invest, you still don't want to lose money. So that proves that there's enough demand.” Feidner goes on to say that Equinix and other data center providers who have been in the Frankfurt market for a long time, benefit because they have the name, brand, and service that prove they have been able to deliver quality to their clients in the past. The newer entrants in the market have yet to gain that same level of credibility. Frankfurt is a data center market to keep your eye on moving forward so be sure to stay tuned to datacenterHawk for more up to date content on it and other major US and European markets.

I det tredje avsnittet pratar vi om Jeanette Wintersons Frankissstein (2019).Jeanette Winterson är född 1959 i Manchester, England. Hon är uppvuxen i ett strängt kristet hem med fosterföräldrar, ett hem som hon tvingades lämna som 16-åring när hon kom ut som lesbisk för sin mamma. Hennes debut 1985, Det finns en annan frukt än apelsiner, är en delvis självbiografisk bok, och älskad av många. Winterson experimenterar ofta med formen och berättandet i sina böcker, och många av dem innehåller lesbiskhet eller romanpersoner som är könsöverskridande eller icke-binära. Frankissstein: En kärlekshistoria är hennes senaste bok. Den gavs ut på engelska 2019 och på svenska på Wahlström & Widstrand 2020.I det här avsnittet pratar vi bland annat om en våldtäkt.I avsnittet nämner vi följande titlar:Gay's the word, bokhandel i London.Russel T.

¿Quieres escuchar el audiolibro completo? Muy pronto en www.megustaescuchar.com¿Por qué ser feliz cuando puedes ser normal?, preguntó la señora Winterson a su hija Jeanette cuando ella, recién cumplidos los dieciséis años, le confesó haberse enamorado de otra chica. Extraña pregunta, pero poco más podía esperarse de una mujer que había adoptado a una niña para hacer de ella una aliada en su misión religiosa, y en cambio se las tuvo que ver con un ser extraño que pedía a gritos su porción de felicidad.Armada con dos juegos de dentadura postiza y una pistola escondida bajo los trapos de cocina, la señora Winterson hizo lo que pudo para disciplinar a Jeanette: en casa los libros estaban prohibidos, las amistades eran mal vistas, los besos y abrazos eran gestos extravagantes, y cualquier falta se castigaba con noches enteras al raso, pero de nada sirvió. Esa chica pelirroja que parecía hija del mismo diablo se rebeló, buscando el placer en la piel de otras mujeres y encontrando en la biblioteca del barrio novelas y poemas que la ayudaran a crecer.Eso y mucho más es lo que ofrecen estas páginas excepcionales, donde alegría y rabia andan de la mano: un libro de memorias destinado a convertirse en un clásico de la literatura contemporánea.«Necesitaba palabras porque todas las familias infelices sellan unpacto de silencio. Quien rompa ese silencio jamás será perdonado.Él o ella tendrá que aprender a perdonarse a sí mismo.»Jeanette Winterson See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

DAILY INSIGHT Renowned author Jeannette Winterson said “Life has never been all or nothing — it’s all and nothing.” We seek to find the meaning of life; to explain everything, and to understand everything. To fill the void we feel when we acknowledge that our time in this life is short. But isn’t Winterson right? Life is All: it is everything we have. And life is also Nothing: we do not have to fill each minute with stress and productivity as a means to make life meaningful. When does your life feel the most meaningful? Not by other people’s standards. Just meaningful to YOU. DAILY ACTION When you encounter a moment of worry, pause to practice gratitude. Say this sentence out loud: “Life is all and nothing; I can exist peacefully in this moment.” And then think of one thing you’re grateful for. Even the tiniest positive things become powerful when you take the time to acknowledge them.

In deze aflevering bespreken Trees en Sara twee kleurrijke boeken die passen bij deze aangename temperaturen. Allebei geen lijvige boeken, maar Haruki blijft uiteraard een uitdaging ook voor fans van eenhoorns en iets avontuurlijkere zielen. Winterson vertelt een coming-of-age story over een lesbisch meisje dat opgroeit in een streng katholieke omgeving. Toch is dit een boek dat luchtig blijft en zelfs een tikkeltje humoristisch.

First thru the eyes of Christ Church Cathedral kid's pageant, then from insights of English-writer Jeanette Winterson, and finally from the personal experiences of the show hosts. Examining all of the complex events that had to happen to make the birth of Christ happen and fulfill an ancient messianic prophecy is stunning and fascinating. Have you ever taken the time to re-read this story and look at the logistics and all the conscious choices these people had to make to get to that moment, that stable, that birth, and the broadcast of the news that billions of people celebrate each year? And we think our build up to Christmas is full of drama. Plus, Beverly and Johnny discuss Joseph's kindness, Mary's grace, and their simpatico relationship that endured immense struggle and pressure. Lastly, Beverly shares how Christmas Eve Mass can be a mystical and spiritual moment of rebirth for all of us. Click to read Rev. Gibson's full worship notes Help support Pulpit To Pew with our Patreon campaign {Editor's note: This is an excerpt from Rev. Gibson's worship notes} Perhaps the greatest gift our children will give us this Sunday is the gift of time-time given and spent in attention to one another, concentrating on what is precious, worth our loving, and worth our whole lives. This gift is the best gift you can give anyone this Christmas season, to be spent telling and listening to stories, setting aside differences and enjoying laughter and good company. If you were to read this week's lessons from scripture, you would find: Isaiah's prophecy that God would send a sign to the house of David in the young woman who would bear a son she would name Immanuel; Paul's confirmation to the Church in Rome that Jesus Christ was this prophesied son; and, Matthew's recounting of the appearance of an angel in a dream to Joseph, telling him that the child in Mary's womb is that prophesied Emmanuel, "God with us." The angel's message to Joseph changed all his plans. He did marry Mary, and he named the child Jesus, as the angel had instructed. But those changes in plan were only the beginning! God is always about changing our plans, even though we resist change at every turn.  Accept God's life-changing gifts this Christmas, thankfully and joyfully.

The tradition of the Twelve Days of Christmas is a tradition of celebration, sharing and giving. And what better way to do that than with a story?Read these stories by the fire, in the snow, travelling home for the holidays. Give them to friends, wrap them up for someone you love, read them aloud, read them alone, read them together. Enjoy the season of peace and goodwill, mystery, and a little bit of magic.There are ghosts here and jovial spirits. Chances at love and tricks with time.There is frost and icicles, mistletoe and sledges. There’s a cat and a dog and a solid silver frog. There’s a Christmas cracker with a surprising gift inside.There’s a haunted house and a SnowMama. There are Yuletides and holly wreaths. Three Kings. And a merry little Christmas time.And for the icing on the Christmas cake, there are twelve festive recipes from Yuletides past and present. Red cabbage, gravlax, turkey biryani, sherry trifle, Mrs Winterson’s mince pies and more.Ruth Padel - Tidings‘Come with meto St Pancras Old Church, on a little London hill...’It’s Christmas Eve and on this enchanted night Charoum, the Angel of Silence, can speak. As night turns to day, he unfolds a resonant story of a little girl, a homeless man and a fox...In the tradition of Charles Dickens and Dylan Thomas, Tidings takes us on a journey into the heart of Christmas, showing us celebrations down the ages and across the globe – as dawn sweeps from East Australia to Bethlehem, from London to the Statue of Liberty in New York.This is Christmas in all its magic, reminding us that it is a time not only of good tidings, but of loneliness and longing, compassion and connection.Beautifully illustrated and exquisitely musical, Tidings is a poem to be read out loud and cherished.

Jeanette Winterson OBE is one of the most acclaimed authors of our time. Across novels, screenplays, essays and journalism, Winterson has taken risks and challenged us to think differently about identity and relationships.At fifteen, Winterson's love affair with another woman was discovered. She was condemned by her church, leading to her expulsion from the community and her decision to leave home. She worked odd jobs, from an ice-cream van driver to a funeral parlour make-up artist, supporting herself as she obtained her B.A. in English from St. Catherine's College at Oxford. She would go on to write over twenty books, including the celebrated novels such as Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, The Passion and Sexing the Cherry, as well as the memoir Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal?Watch as Winterson talks about her life, and what she's learned from it through decades of searching for love and meaning through fiction and poetry.

King Charles, Oliver Cromwell, a vagrant narrator, hedge mazes and dreaded puritans – Jeanette Winterson goes historical fiction on us again in her 1989 novel that is less than the sum of its parts. For a short book, it's quite long.

With Mark Lawson, who reports from this year's Harrogate Crime Writing Festival. Ruth Rendell and Jeanette Winterson discuss their friendship, which began when Winterson was a house-sitter for Rendell in 1986. The writers also discuss crime plots, exercise regimes and mammoth book signing sessions. Kate Atkinson turned to crime-writing with Case Histories, which has become a TV series with Jason Isaacs playing private investigator Jackson Brodie. Atkinson reveals her reluctance to call herself a crime-writer and why she often comes up with titles before stories. For the second year running Denise Mina received the Novel of the Year award. But there were times when she feared her winning book wouldn't be published. Mina discusses rewriting her book in a weekend. Val McDermid, Erin Kelly, David Mark, Steve Mosby and Nicci French - husband and wife duo Nicci Gerrard and Sean French - discuss debut writers and JK Rowling's The Cuckoo's Calling, writers' block and tweeting, pure evil and taking inspiration from real life events. In front of an audience, Stuart MacBride, Catriona McPherson, Manda Scott and Cathi Unsworth reflect on how crime novels of the future could change, in the light of new technology and online developments.

Varför slutar ofta ett kapitel när sängkammarscenen börjar? I Lundströms Bokradio pratar vi om att skriva sex - och om den nya engelska storsäljaren Fifty Shades of Grey: programledare Marie Lundström har träffat författaren E L James. Varför har hennes trilogi blivit så populär och vad fick fru James att börja skriva erotiska romaner? I studion finns augustprisvinnande författaren och psykologen Jenny Jägerfeld, aktuell med en novell i antologin Het, och Carl Michael Edenborg, författare och förläggare som i dagarna kommer ut med sin roman Mitt grymma öde, om musikkompositören Händel. Edenborg har länge varit en profil i utgivningen av erotisk litteratur. Så blir det intervju med engelska författaren Jeanette Winterson om hennes senaste självbiografiska bok om uppväxten: Varför vara lycklig när du kan vara normal? Dessutom: Konstnären Lars Lerin läser upp sin favoritdikt. Och: Marie Lundström läser breven med svar på frågan om programmets maskot.

Legendary writer Jeanette Winterson inspired her audience with tremendous charm on 16 August, speaking movingly of happiness and the pursuit thereof. This brilliant event was full of intelligent questions from the audience and great energy from Winterson herself. When she attended her photocall, the Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit writer proceeded to throw oranges at the photographers!
