1. McKinsey 2023 Summer Reading

McKinsey Global Publishing asked leaders from around the world, including CEOs, founders, and editors – to share what they are reading or planning to read – for an annual tradition in McKinsey on the books universe: The McKinsey Annual Summer Reading Guide. Some McKinsey leaders also volunteered their picks.

These books offer something for everyone trying to make sense of today’s evolving world. The selected books cover the worlds of politics, history, innovation, business, workplace culture, and more. Perhaps as a sign of a much-needed break, the most popular genres this year are fiction and poetry.

2. Guide: What Ai model to use for what (Ethan Mollick, Wharton)

This guide serves as an orientation to the current state of AI tools. It is based on the author’s experience of how to pick the right tool to do things.

The author,?Ethan Mollick, is a professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. As powerful AI systems are being released at an increasingly rapid pace but “not a single AI lab seems to have provided any user documentation,” he decided to put together some ideas summarizing the known Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Bing, Bard, and Claude 2, comparing what they do and when to best use each of them.?

Some uses he described were:

• To write stuff
• Make images
• Come up with ideas
• Make videos
• Work with documents and data
• Get information and learn stuff

“AI is a tool.” Says Mollick: “It is not always the right tool. Consider carefully whether, given its weaknesses, it is right for the purpose to which you are planning to apply it.”
