How will Artificial Intelligence affect crime, war, justice, jobs, society and our very sense of being human? The rise of AI has the potential to transform our future more than any other technology—and there’s nobody better qualified or situated to explore that future than Max Tegmark, an MIT professor who’s helped mainstream research on how to keep AI beneficial.

How can we grow our prosperity through automation without leaving people lacking income or purpose? What career advice should we give today’s kids? How can we make future AI systems more robust, so that they do what we want without crashing, malfunctioning or getting hacked? Should we fear an arms race in lethal autonomous weapons? Will machines eventually outsmart us at all tasks, replacing humans on the job market and perhaps altogether? Will AI help life flourish like never before or give us more power than we can handle?

What sort of future do you want? This book empowers you to join what may be the most important conversation of our time. It doesn’t shy away from the full range of viewpoints or from the most controversial issues—from superintelligence to meaning, consciousness and the ultimate physical limits on life in the cosmos.

Some of the future think will blow your mind

Liked the book in general. Still trying to figure out tho why I didn't love it because it's well done. The start of the book could be misleading.

A deep dive into the AI conversation of today

I enjoyed this title. It covers a lot of ground and explores many possible AI scenarios and outcomes. I purchased it based on Elon Musk's recommendation ;)

Great but second part is to scientific

First 50% of book makes it worth buying, absolutely good, but why in gods name change to such exaggerated scientific writing style in second part using 300 times 10^x and 10^y and comparisons nobody can grasp? It seems like another writer entirely. But the cause is absolutely worth it so, thank you for being part of the effort to make ai safe.

Thoughtful positive analysis

Tegmark walks us through a wide set of possible outcomes, and asks us what we want. He ranges through societal and technical options. I'm strongly biased towards light fiction when I'm not working, but I found this easy and interesting. I have a PhD in computer science, working on hardware supporting AI, and I found this informed. The tone is a positive call to action, but it's not preachy. I will recommend this to my friends.

I found Shapiro, the voice actor, clear and easy to listen to.

AI EQ trials

I certainly promote the ethical commission boards decision to implement International safety guidelines before technology becomes executive decision ready! We are the creators of this beauty and art! Let us as humans install the beauty within our biological existence so we can move toward homosentience.

Sincerely,

A person who values all forms of life
