What will you be in a world that no longer needs you?
A technician in the shadow of an algorithm?
A ghost in a machine-run society?
Or a human that still matters?
The World in 2050 is a provocative journey into a future already under construction. It’s not just about artificial intelligence — it’s about what happens when society lets systems decide who is visible, valid, and valuable.
This book blends speculative storytelling, real-world parallels, and sharp analysis to explore what happens when predictive scoring replaces human judgment — and when machines are authorized to make irreversible decisions. Experience algorithmic ghosting, risk profiling, and digital erasure — all based on real-world systems that are already shaping our present.
One such case?
In 2020, Robert Williams, a Black man in Michigan, was wrongfully arrested based on a faulty facial recognition match — detained for a crime he didn’t commit. His story isn’t fiction. It’s the foundation of a future where justice is automated, and accountability is optional.
In the development of autonomous weaponry, AI is now trained to evaluate threat levels, prioritize targets, and determine lethal engagement — with minimal human oversight. Who is accountable when a mistake is irreversible?
What You’ll Discover:
-
Predictive identities and algorithmic class systems
-
Real-world surveillance failures and social credit logic
-
The chilling rise of AI-driven bias and digital disappearance
-
Concepts like Algorithmic Ghosting, Code-Loyalist Syndrome, and The Citizen Stack
For readers of Homo Deus, AI 2041, Weapons of Math Destruction
Perfect for: Futurists, ethicists, technologists, policymakers, educators — and anyone concerned with the future of being human
This is not a tale of distant dystopias. This is your invitation to question the systems shaping you.
What will you be in a world that no longer needs you?

Store description
In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into to a global company pioneering the circular economy. Today, we drive the circular economy through three re-commerce brands: - Wob: Through Wob, we sell. We provide affordable, preloved books and media to customers all over the world. A book leaves our collection of over seven million titles and begins a new chapter every two seconds, enabling more goods to be reused. - Ziffit: Through Ziffit, we buy. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. - Shopiago: Through Shopiago, we help others. By sharing the technology that has grown World of Books Group into the business it is today, we’re helping charities increase revenue and reduce waste through re-commerce.…
