A bright and timely book that celebrates the value of the human mind
AI is at the forefront of everyone's minds: from students and artists, to CEO's and service workers. But what exactly is AI, and how does it influence our everyday lives? And more than that, what does it mean for our future? Is there a way for us to retain our "humanness" in a world ever-reliant on tech?
This groundbreaking book argues that the key technology we use to make strategic, political, and ethical decisions is flawed. As we race headlong into a future where we outsource all of our problem solving to artificial intelligence, the greatest threat to humanity is not superintelligent machinery, but a lack of trust in the power of our own minds. This book offers a new way forwardwhat Dr. Weitzner calls "artful intelligence"a philosophy that celebrates our humanness and can help each of us make better decisions and create a healthier relationship with the world around us.
In these pages, the author walks us through how AI often fails and how that affects our lives. But readers will also meet the rockstars, inventors, and business leaders who embody artful intelligence and are changing our world for the better in an era rampant with AI malpracticewhile being taught how to do the same.
