Original black cloth, spine lettered in gilt. With the original pictorial dust jacket designed by Nick Bostrom. A very good copy,…the binding square and firm with moderate compression to the spine ends and knocking to the corners; a couple of small spots to the top edge, else the contents are clean and fresh.

"Superintelligence" is a seminal and profoundly influential work that played a central role in bringing the potential risks of artificial intelligence into mainstream consciousness. Nick Bostrom, the founding director of the Future of Humanity Institute at the University of Oxford, provides a rigorous framework for understanding what might happen when machine intelligence surpasses human cognitive performance. The book became a New York Times bestseller and gained significant traction after being recommended by figures such as Elon Musk, Bill Gates, and Stephen Hawking, who cited it as essential reading for understanding the "existential threat" posed by unaligned AI. Its impact on Silicon Valley and international policy regarding AI safety remains significant, marking a shift in how the tech industry views its long-term responsibilities. Signed by Author(s).
