The Sane and Sensible, Big Picture “Commons” Sense View of AI
What is it about Artificial Intelligence driving tech giants like Elon Musk, Marc Andreessen, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, and Sam Altman? Why are they racing to develop and own these thinking machines while unsure of the harm they could cause us? Can we trust nation-states and NGOs to use their totalitarian strategies when they don’t truly understand the problems we face?
These self-appointed masters of artificial intelligence are gambling with our future while plunging headfirst into a high-stakes race with potentially catastrophic consequences.
How should we confront them?
Mentoring the Machines: Orientation cuts through the noise to provide clear, commons-sense answers. With a practical narrative that builds on straightforward ideas, this book offers a cogent understanding of the AI phenomenon. It urges us to resist surrendering our influence over Artificial Intelligence to the whims of the marketplace or the state, and instead, to engage in a meaningful way to ensure our survival.
Welcome to the every person’s map for the coming brave new world.
