Více o knize

Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Non-Fiction, this intimate investigation of AI arrives at a crucial moment. It combines the author's extensive experience in technology with engaging storytelling, offering a nuanced and accessible view of a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. The work delves into what it means to be human as automated decision-making influences our behavior. Through the voices of ordinary people far from Silicon Valley, it examines the profound effects of powerful and often exploitative technologies on individuals and communities. Madhumita Murgia, AI Editor at the FT, highlights how AI can undermine our sense of agency and challenge our perception of free will. The narrative reveals the significant changes AI is already imposing on humanity, both large and small, and warns of the consequences if we do not reclaim our humanity. Rather than focusing solely on technology, the author centers the human experience, portraying individuals as both heroes and victims in the compelling stories about the impact of code on our future.
