The Future of Artificial Intelligence and How You Can Save Our World

Scary Smart is an accessible blueprint for creating a harmonious future alongside AI, from the former Chief Business Officer at Google [X] and internationally bestselling author of Solve for Happy, Mo Gawdat.

A Sunday Times Business Book of the Year 'No one ever regrets reading anything Mo Gawdat has written.' - Emma Gannon, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Multi-Hyphen Method and host of award-winning podcast Ctrl Alt Delete

Technology is putting our humanity at risk to an unprecedented degree. This book is not for engineers who write the code or the policy makers who claim they can regulate it. This is a book for you.

Because, believe it or not, you are the only one that can fix it. - Mo Gawdat

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, predict outcomes and even use sensors to see around physical and virtual corners. So why does AI frequently get it so wrong and cause harm? The answer is us: the human beings who write the code and teach AI to mimic our behaviour. Scary Smart explains how to fix the current trajectory now, to make sure 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.
