"A fascinating journey into the future of AI, providing a unique perspective that combines technology, economics, geopolitics, and history." — PASCAL BORNET, Technology Influencer, 2 million followers. Written in an accessible style for all audiences, “How AI Will Shape Our Future” anchors readers in the history and evolution of Artificial Intelligence, laying the groundwork for a deeper understanding of its trajectory. This equips readers to engage more thoughtfully with the book’s central theme: What should societies expect from AI in the decades ahead? How does AI actually function? What will its impact be on employment and education, both short-term and long-term? How will AI reshape society, the economy, government, culture, and geopolitics? What are the potential utopian and dystopian outcomes, and who will be most affected? What’s happening with China and the intensifying AI arms race? Could synthetic biology lead to human-cyborg coexistence? Most critically, what should we demand of our leaders today to prepare for AI’s inevitable advancement? These are just some of the provocative questions explored and answered by Pedro Uria-Recio, a former McKinsey consultant and Chief AI Officer who has spent years working with this transformative technology on a global scale. Whether you're a technologist or a homemaker, a businessperson or a student, a voter or a policymaker, or simply curious about humanity’s future, “How AI Will Shape Our Future” offers essential insights for navigating the complexities of AI. How AI Will Shape Our Future - Humanity Interlaces with AI: AI is our new mind. Robotics, our new body. How are we becoming a new species at the intersection of carbon and silicon? - AI Gets Exponential: Artificial General Intelligence. Humanoids and cyborgs. Synthetic biology. Quantum computing. Mind emulation. How will they unfold? - AI Authoritarianism Looms: AI will render truth obsolete, freedom redefined, and job scarcity ubiquitous. Can we still shape AI for the benefit of all? - Geopolitics Supercharged: Super Intelligence will be worshiped. China and America will clash over their views on AI. Politics will be centered on species identities. - Humanity’s Greatest Epic: From Mythology to Kubrick. From Aristotle to Sam Altman. From Leonardo to Boston Dynamics. From today to Superintelligence. - Stay Ahead with AI: Critical thinking. Adaptability. Entrepreneurship. "A seminal work, brilliantly navigating the transformative impact of AI on humanity and the advent of the machine economy, promising a harmonious fusion of technology and societal progress."—Professor Paul J. Morrissey, John Moores University, Feb 2024. "AI Magnum Opus! What an in-depth and thorough volume on AI. From ancient history to future predictions, political implications, potential impacts, and outcomes, if there is any question you have about AI impact, this book likely touches on it. Vast in its breadth and intelligent insights."—J Palmer, May 2024 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
