Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In late 2025, New York Times columnist Thomas L. Friedman described a new era--the Polycene--characterized by the increasingly complex interplay of powerful forces: AI, climate change, global economics, and geopolitics. These forces accelerate within a highly interconnected system, demanding that humanity address complexity at a planetary scale. In AI and the Crisis of Control (2026), Russell E. Willis explored the consequences of artificial intelligence on this transformation, providing a framework for how leaders can reclaim responsibility in the Polycene era. Now, in Polycene: Poetry of Our Age, Willis examines this emerging age from within--in ordinary moments: a scattering of birds, a drying reservoir, a remembered storm. Landscapes shift. Language strains. Systems of power and patterns of belonging reveal themselves in fragments: wind, water, memory, migration, and the quiet weight of human choice. What emerges is a portrait of an age shaped not by a single force, but by many--each amplifying the others, an age lived as background noise until it becomes impossible to ignore. Written across years of quiet attention, the poems of Polycene gather what argument and analysis cannot fully reach. They do not explain these forces. They listen to them.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Artificial intelligence now shapes decisions once guided by human judgment-and in the process, responsibility is quietly disappearing. As AI systems spread through organizations and institutions, leaders find themselves surrounded by power they can neither fully see nor clearly answer for. In AI and the Crisis of Control, Russell E. Willis argues that the central challenge of AI is not runaway machines or malicious intent, but the erosion of human agency inside complex systems. When decisions are distributed across algorithms, vendors, data pipelines, regulators, and executives, accountability dissolves. Everyone acts rationally. No one remains fully answerable. Drawing on decades of experience across engineering, ethics, and technology leadership, Willis shows how this crisis appears in everyday contexts-from hiring and credit decisions to healthcare, finance, and criminal justice. These are not isolated failures. They are recurring structural patterns wherever AI mediates human power. But the book does more than diagnose the problem. Rather than calling for tighter control or slower innovation, Willis offers a practical framework for complex responsibility-one designed for leaders who must act amid uncertainty, scale, and competing pressures. Through six dimensions of responsible judgment and five operational pillars, he shows how organizations can rebuild answerability, participation, and moral imagination without abandoning technological progress. Written for business and technology leaders, policymakers, and professionals working inside AI-shaped systems, AI and the Crisis of Control helps readers see clearly where responsibility is being lost-and how it can be consciously practiced again.
