A very interesting and important book, sometimes the tech concepts are a bit hard to follow despite the author's best efforts, but still very accessible. Points out the glaring issues with the current obsession with AI, but also gives examples of how it could be used in a more human -centred way.
Main issue was the humor, just found it annoying and felt like the author was worried the reader would lose interest if she didn't crack a joke during a heavy subject.
