- Digital minimalism : choosing a focused life in a noisy world / by Newport, Cal,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Minimalism is the art of knowing how much is just enough. Digital minimalism applies this idea to our personal technology. It's the key to living a focused life in an increasingly noisy world. In this timely and enlightening book, the bestselling author of Deep Work introduces a philosophy for technology use that has already improved countless lives. Digital minimalists are all around us. They're the calm, happy people who can hold long conversations without furtive glances at their phones. They can get lost in a good book, a woodworking project, or a leisurely morning run. They can have fun with friends and family without the obsessive urge to document the experience. They stay informed about the news of the day, but don't feel overwhelmed by it. They don't experience "fear of missing out" because they already know which activities provide them meaning and satisfaction. Now, Newport gives us a name for this quiet movement, and makes a persuasive case for its urgency in our tech-saturated world. Common sense tips, like turning off notifications, or occasional rituals like observing a digital sabbath, don't go far enough in helping us take back control of our technological lives, and attempts to unplug completely are complicated by the demands of family, friends and work. What we need instead is a thoughtful method to decide what tools to use, for what purposes, and under what conditions. Drawing on a diverse array of real-life examples, from Amish farmers to harried parents to Silicon Valley programmers, Newport identifies the common practices of digital minimalists and the ideas that underpin them. He shows how digital minimalists are rethinking their relationship to social media, rediscovering the pleasures of the offline world, and reconnecting with their inner selves through regular periods of solitude. He then shares strategies for integrating these practices into your life, starting with a thirty-day "digital declutter" process that has already helped thousands feel less overwhelmed and more in control. Technology is intrinsically neither good nor bad. The key is using it to support your goals and values, rather than letting it use you. This book shows the way.

- Digital dharma : how AI can elevate spiritual intelligence and personal well-being / by Chopra, Deepak,author.;
"As a spiritual icon who continually explores the intersection of cutting-edge science and personal growth, Deepak Chopra, M.D., tackles the little-discussed spiritual benefits of AI and its vast potential to solve the greatest mystery confronting us: consciousness itself. By navigating the intricate balance between innovation and spirituality, Chopra explains that although AI cannot duplicate creative intelligence, it can vastly enhance our own. Humans have natural intelligence, not the artificial kind. We lead emotional lives; we are capable of insight and self-reflection. Despite these things, however, the human mind is deeply artificial in many ways, and the negative connotations of the word "artificial" -- fake, lifeless, illusory, mechanical, arbitrary -- apply to our everyday life. Instead of wondering how to make a machine conscious, we should be asking how a machine can make us more conscious. In this book, Chopra shows readers the seven levels of intelligence, including survival and safety, emotional connection, self-worth, abundance, knowledge, wisdom, and the infinite possibilities. These levels are understood by AI on a surface level, but humans can interpret them more accurately and with a self-knowledge that no chatbot can duplicate. But by asking the right questions, you can bring AI into your inner world, which is where personal growth happens. Chopra provides a personal assessment for readers to locate their level of awareness, and exercises to help readers attain their goals"--
