Story
Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

When we hear about their demise, it often seems inevitable - a natural part of "creative destruction." But closer examination reveals a disturbing truth: Companies large and small are shuttering more quickly than ever. What does it take to buck this trend? The simple answer is: ambidexterity. Firms must remain competitive in their core markets, while also winning in new domains.

Publisher's Summary
In industry after industry, data, analytics, and AI-driven processes are transforming the nature of work. While we often still treat AI as the domain of a specific skill, business function, or sector, we have entered a new era in which AI is challenging the very concept of the firm. AI-centric organizations exhibit a new operating architecture, redefining how they create, capture, share, and deliver value.
Marco Iansiti and Karim R. Lakhani show how reinventing the firm around data, analytics, and AI removes traditional constraints on scale, scope, and learning that have constrained business growth for hundreds of years. From Airbnb to Ant Financial, Microsoft to Amazon, research shows how AI-driven processes are vastly more scalable than traditional processes, drive massive scope increase, enabling companies to straddle industry boundaries, and enable powerful opportunities for learning - to drive ever more accurate, complex, and sophisticated predictions.
When traditional operating constraints are removed, strategy becomes a whole new game, one whose rules and likely outcomes this book will make clear.

Good writing but disappointing reading
I decided to both read this book and reinforce my reading by listening to the audible version.
The book itself is a decent read. It speaks on the success of the top large digitally transformed corporations. The main points of this book are relevant even in the absence of AI. If you read other business books about technology and disruptive innovation, you likely have already come across the same case studies and similar points.
I found the audible reading to be disappointing; several times I stopped wondering whether it was an “AI”/speech-to-text robot, and even went so far as to research whether that was the case. The pausing during sentence pronunciation feels unnatural.

Great material. Poor performance.
I believe there are some great insights in this book, but I've struggled to get past the first chapter because the narration is so dissonant. Pauses at odd places in a sentence, odd enunciations ( "A broad" read as "abroad" ) and odd emphasis in words. It feels like a not-quite-ready-for-primetime AI-driven text-to-speech conversion vs a live rendition.
That being said, I've taken a number of AI classes and am looking for guidance on how to spot trends and opportunities for my career. This book seems like a great place to start and I will complete it one way or another.
I'll know more once I manage to get through the audio... Or perhaps I'll just buy a paper copy.

Great Coverage of Network Effects
I am an IT professional and have been in the "disruptor" chair in my past 6 engagements. I have read a lot of these kinds of books and have been struggling to find anything that feels fresh or offers new perspective. This book was both for me. I believe that no matter your maturity on AI or AI-related topics, that you will find this book to be an important conversation starter. I thought the authors did a great job in explaining the way network effects can change everything in a digital world.

where is "AI"?
misleading title. I listened to first 5-6 chapters, and stopped. there was really nothing insightful about AI. in fact, there was not much about AI. all old stories. at least up to the middle of chap 6. could NOT continue. I know AI is a buzzword these days. the authors seemed to create this book for the sake of it. VERY disappointed. waste of time.

Worth a listen - lots of noise
The first chapter can be skipped. It’s essentially the authors selling their services which I didn’t like. I’m paying for insights, not your pitch. The central part of the book does have valuable data and then moves back out to open ended jargon describing the industry, and doesn’t focus on the topic at hand. I would recommend listening to a short 15 minute breakdown of this book rather than the full thing as that’s where your time is better placed - remember it does include content that is worth learning. It’s definitely not worth the time investment for the full thing however.
