One of the Sunday Times' Business Books of the Year, Technology is endangering our humanity in ways never before seen. This book is not intended for engineers who create code or policymakers who assert they can control it. This is a book for you. Because, believe it or not, you are the only one who can fix it. - Mo Gawdat From the mind of a genius comes a chilling prediction - Tim Ash, bestselling author of Unleash Your Primal Brain Artificial intelligence is smarter than humans. It can process information at lightning speed and remain focused on specific tasks without distraction. AI can see into the future, predicting outcomes and even using sensors to see around physical and virtual corners. So why does AI frequently get it so wrong? The answer is us. Humans design the algorithms that define how AI works, and the processed information reflects an imperfect world. Does that mean we are doomed? In Scary Smart, Mo Gawdat, the internationally bestselling author of Solve for Happy, draws on his considerable expertise to answer this question and to show what we can all do now to teach ourselves and our machines how to live better. With more than thirty years of experience working at the cutting edge of technology and his former role as chief business officer of Google [X], no one is better positioned than Mo Gawdat to explain how the Artificial Intelligence of the future works. By 2049, AI will be a billion times more intelligent than humans. Scary Smart explains how to fix the current trajectory now, to ensure that the AI of the future can preserve our species. This book offers a blueprint, pointing the way to what we can do to safeguard ourselves, those we love, and the planet itself.
