The title "The Journey from EI to AI – Mankind Redefined" was inspired by the profound shift humanity is experiencing as we navigate between the timeless power of Emotional Intelligence (EI) and the growing influence of Artificial Intelligence (AI). For Prof. (Dr.) Premankur Das, the title encapsulates the journey of balancing the deeply human aspects of empathy, connection, and self-awareness (EI) with the relentless rise of AI, which is rapidly transforming industries, relationships, and even our identities. Dr. Das, an experienced HR professional and academic, was particularly inspired by his observations in the workplace, where technology often threatens to overshadow the human touch. He recognized the need to redefine what it means to be human in an age of intelligent machines, while still holding on to the core values of emotional understanding and ethical leadership. The title reflects not just a technological evolution but a deeper philosophical journey—one that requires society to adapt while safeguarding the core values that make us human. Through engaging insights, Dr. Das offers a roadmap for navigating this shift, reminding us that while AI can enhance and transform our lives, it is our Emotional Intelligence that truly defines us. This book is an essential read for those seeking to thrive in a world where humanity and technology must coexist.

In the realm of analyzing human emotions through Artificial Intelligence (AI), a myriad of challenges persist. From the intricate nuances of emotional subtleties to the broader concerns of ethical considerations, privacy implications, and the ongoing battle against bias, AI faces a complex landscape when venturing into the understanding of human emotions. These challenges underscore the intricate balance required to navigate the human psyche with accuracy. The book, Using Machine Learning to Detect Emotions and Predict Human Psychology, serves as a guide for innovative solutions in the field of emotion detection through AI. It explores facial expression analysis, where AI decodes real-time emotions through subtle cues such as eyebrow movements and micro-expressions. In speech and voice analysis, the book unveils how AI processes vocal nuances to discern emotions, considering elements like tone, pitch, and language intricacies. Additionally, the power of text analysis is of great importance, revealing how AI extracts emotional tones from diverse textual communications. By weaving these systems together, the book offers a holistic solution to the challenges faced by AI in understanding the complex landscape of human emotions.

A groundbreaking narrative on the urgency of ethically designed AI and a guidebook to reimagining life in the era of intelligent technology. The Age of Intelligent Machines is upon us, and we are at a reflection point. The proliferation of fast–moving technologies, including forms of artificial intelligence akin to a new species, will cause us to confront profound questions about ourselves. The era of human intellectual superiority is ending, and we need to plan for this monumental shift. A Human Algorithm: How Artificial Intelligence Is Redefining Who We Are examines the immense impact intelligent technology will have on humanity. These machines, while challenging our personal beliefs and our socioeconomic world order, also have the potential to transform our health and well–being, alleviate poverty and suffering, and reveal the mysteries of intelligence and consciousness. International human rights attorney Flynn Coleman deftly argues that it is critical that we instill values, ethics, and morals into our robots, algorithms, and other forms of AI. Equally important, we need to develop and implement laws, policies, and oversight mechanisms to protect us from tech’s insidious threats. To realize AI’s transcendent potential, Coleman advocates for inviting a diverse group of voices to participate in designing our intelligent machines and using our moral imagination to ensure that human rights, empathy, and equity are core principles of emerging technologies. Ultimately, A Human Algorithm is a clarion call for building a more humane future and moving conscientiously into a new frontier of our own design. “[Coleman] argues that the algorithms of machine learning––if they are instilled with human ethics and values––could bring about a new era of enlightenment.” —San Francisco Chronicle

World-renowned economist Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman of the World Economic Forum, explains that we have an opportunity to shape the fourth industrial revolu­tion, which will fundamentally alter how we live and work. Schwab argues that this revolution is different in scale, scope and complexity from any that have come before. Characterized by a range of new technologies that are fusing the physical, digital and biological worlds, the developments are affecting all disciplines, economies, industries and governments, and even challenging ideas about what it means to be human. Artificial intelligence is already all around us, from supercomputers, drones and virtual assistants to 3D printing, DNA sequencing, smart thermostats, wear­able sensors and microchips smaller than a grain of sand. But this is just the beginning: nanomaterials 200 times stronger than steel and a million times thinner than a strand of hair and the first transplant of a 3D printed liver are already in development. Imagine “smart factories” in which global systems of manu­facturing are coordinated virtually, or implantable mobile phones made of biosynthetic materials. The fourth industrial revolution, says Schwab, is more significant, and its ramifications more profound, than in any prior period of human history. He outlines the key technologies driving this revolution and discusses the major impacts expected on government, business, civil society and individu­als. Schwab also offers bold ideas on how to harness these changes and shape a better future—one in which technology empowers people rather than replaces them; progress serves society rather than disrupts it; and in which innovators respect moral and ethical boundaries rather than cross them. We all have the opportunity to contribute to developing new frame­works that advance progress.

#1 BESTSELLER • The groundbreaking book that redefines what it means to be smart, with a new introduction by the author “A thoughtfully written, persuasive account explaining emotional intelligence and why it can be crucial.”—USA Today Everyone knows that high IQ is no guarantee of success, happiness, or virtue, but until Emotional Intelligence, we could only guess why. Daniel Goleman's brilliant report from the frontiers of psychology and neuroscience offers startling new insight into our “two minds”—the rational and the emotional—and how they together shape our destiny. Drawing on groundbreaking brain and behavioral research, Goleman shows the factors at work when people of high IQ flounder and those of modest IQ do surprisingly well. These factors, which include self-awareness, self-discipline, and empathy, add up to a different way of being smart—and they aren’t fixed at birth. Although shaped by childhood experiences, emotional intelligence can be nurtured and strengthened throughout our adulthood—with immediate benefits to our health, our relationships, and our work. The twenty-fifth-anniversary edition of Emotional Intelligence could not come at a better time—we spend so much of our time online, more and more jobs are becoming automated and digitized, and our children are picking up new technology faster than we ever imagined. With a new introduction from the author, the twenty-fifth-anniversary edition prepares readers, now more than ever, to reach their fullest potential and stand out from the pack with the help of EI.
