THE AI DIGITAL HUMAN CARDIAC COACH ~ Paperback Now Published
Since the publication of The AI Digital Human Cardiac Coach Kindle ebook back in March, there has been incredible global demand for a paperback version. We thank everyone for their interest, and are truly blown away. Unfortunately, we are not able to respond individually to the many inquiries, hence this article.
I would like to give everyone an update on the book and the considerable IP Assets we have released.
The global demand and interest in the ‘how to’ is just amazing - and expected - given commentary from global luminaries such as Marcus Endicott and Dr Chris Hillier on the aggressive moves by China to situate virtual beings/digital humans as part of the Chinese national infrastructure across education, health and servicing sectors.
The statistics on my own website align with this global interest. The question I have been working through is - how to meet this global demand commercially, and how a paperback version can help with this.
As an indication of the global interest in the topic of Digital Humans, over the past twelve months both the Nadia book and The AI Digital Human Cardiac Coach book have ranked as Amazon Best Sellers, including at Number 1 in multiple categories.
I suspect it is somewhat rare for an Author to have two books covering AI ranking as Best Sellers within twelve months. A big thank you to some very special people for all the support over the years.
With the publication of The AI Digital Human Cardiac Coach book, we have also released a quantum of IP Assets, hundreds of artefacts - methodologies, templates, accelerators, architectures, design principles and instructions - used in our work.
These artefacts are detailed and heavily diagrammatic, and also require explanation. However, these artefacts do not reproduce well in a paperback format, and have not been provided in this paperback version. It would be almost impossible for a reader to interact with the detail of the artefacts in a 6x9 paperback book format.
Fortunately, we have found a way for readers of the paperback version to access these IP Assets digitally, and instructions on how to do this are provided in the book. This will support the global interest for a paperback version of this book while also providing access to these assets.
Because of this hybrid approach, The AI Digital Human Cardiac Coach paperback version is for a time limited release.
I have also been asked whether these artefacts could be made available via a masterclass or workshop format, and inquiries as to whether I would be interested in conducting such workshops. Over the years I have conducted similar ‘how to’ instructional masterclasses, webinars and workshops.
As mentioned in an earlier post, throughout 2024, together with my colleague Dr Chris Hillier, we supported international Chinese computing and mathematics Masters students at the University of Southampton - with their theses on the AI Digital Human Cardiac Coach. I reference the excellent and thought provoking work of these amazing young scholars in The AI Digital Human Cardiac Coach book.
With The AI Digital Human Cardiac Coach story now documented and the artefacts curated and assembled, I’ll give some thought to conducting further masterclass/workshops on AI Digital Humans at some point.
We hope you enjoy the book, and the new cover - a familiar friendly face to many - the avatar of #CardiacMan, the original Digital Human Cardiac Coach.
The Nadia book has also been re-released with a new cover. Enjoy.
