Summary

Embark on a compelling exploration into the world of AI, where future reality meets boundless possibility. Can you afford to remain in the dark?

When you watch a movie suggested by Netflix's AI, talk to your favorite brand's chatbot, or follow your car's navigation to the new restaurant in town, you interact with AI. Most people are spectators rather than actors in this fast-evolving digital epoch. This is where the insightful journey author Will Davis guides you on will change your perspective. You'll dive into the fascinating world of artificial intelligence, from its early forerunners to the singularity's lofty vision, all simplified for the curious mind.

Inside, you will discover:

  • A comprehensive overview of the AI universe
  • The fascinating mechanics that power AI, including feedback loops and their critical role
  • The intriguing process of amalgamating various AI capabilities to form potent new tools
  • Insights into the profound ethical questions raised by AI's rapid advancement
  • Real-world applications of AI across multiple spheres—from business to leisure, investment to politics
  • Enlightening predictions about AI's future—understand what lies on the horizon for this disruptive technology
  • The deep-reaching influence of AI on society and politics—comprehend the consequences of AI beyond the technicalities
  • And much more!

With each chapter, you'll realize that understanding AI is no longer an optional hobby; it's a necessity. As everyone strives toward an era where technology shapes every aspect of society, keeping up with AI is imperative for staying informed, resilient, and relevant. Now is the time to move from being a spectator to actively participating in the AI revolution!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

bit outdated and not engaging narrator

only for easy listen, need to be updated minimum to tech level in late 2023.
I'm not native English and narrator dialect and the way of reading was at least not engaging if not bored to me.

Few concepts well explained

A decent read with a broader set of perspectives discussing key AI concepts and implications of it on society, business and individual. However some parts i found are a little fluffy and uninteresting.
