craigbruney 's review for:
Very highly recommended. The title fails to convey the book's broad scope. In a fairly condensed book, the author sets out, simply and concisely, the different tech cultures of US and China based companies, the current state of AI, the likely short to medium term developments, the impact of all this on jobs, policy solutions, and a very surprising turn at the end to contemplate the purpose and meaning of life. The policy solutions covers the well discussed ground of UBI and retraining, but also brings a skeptical eye to those solutions as insufficient for the social/human nature aspect that the coming change from AI could bring.
