Superintelligence asks the questions: What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? Nick Bostrom lays the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. The human brain has some capabilities that the brains of other animals lack. It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.

Artificial intelligence is smarter than humans. It can process information at lightning speed and remain focused on specific tasks without distraction. AI can see into the future, predicting outcomes and even use sensors to see around physical and virtual corners. So why does Intelligence frequently get it so wrong? The answer is us. Humans design the algorithms that define the way that AI works and the processed information reflects an imperfect world.

Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

What does it actually mean to be rational? Not Hollywood-style "rational", where you forsake all human feeling to embrace Cold Hard Logic, but where you make good decisions, even when it's hard; where you reason well, even in the face of massive uncertainty; where you recognize and make full use of your fuzzy intuitions and emotions, rather than trying to discard them. In Rationality: From AI to Zombies, Eliezer Yudkowsky explains the science underlying human irrationality with a mix of fables, argumentative essays, and personal vignettes.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

What happens when artificial intelligence saturates political life and depletes the planet? How is AI shaping our understanding of ourselves and our societies? Drawing on more than a decade of research, award-winning scholar Kate Crawford reveals how AI is a technology of extraction: from the minerals drawn from the earth, to the labor pulled from low-wage information workers, to the data taken from every action and expression. This book reveals how this planetary network is fueling a shift toward undemocratic governance and increased inequity.

What is Western Civilization? According to Professor Noble, it is "much more than human and political geography," encompassing myriad forms of political and institutional structures - from monarchies to participatory republics - and its own traditions of political discourse. It involves choices about who gets to participate in any given society and the ways in which societies have resolved the tension between individual self-interest and the common good.

History for the Non-Historian
- By Amazon Customer on 22-01-2014
Publisher's Summary
THE NEW YORK TIMES, USA TODAY, AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER
Dr. Kai-Fu Lee - one of the world’s most respected experts on AI and China - reveals that China has suddenly caught up to the US at an astonishingly rapid and unexpected pace.
In AI Superpowers, Kai-fu Lee argues powerfully that because of these unprecedented developments in AI, dramatic changes will be happening much sooner than many of us expected. Indeed, as the US-Sino AI competition begins to heat up, Lee urges the US and China to both accept and to embrace the great responsibilities that come with significant technological power. Most experts already say that AI will have a devastating impact on blue-collar jobs. But Lee predicts that Chinese and American AI will have a strong impact on white-collar jobs as well. Is universal basic income the solution? In Lee’s opinion, probably not. But he provides a clear description of which jobs will be affected and how soon, which jobs can be enhanced with AI, and most importantly, how we can provide solutions to some of the most profound changes in human history that are coming soon.

Open minded people will be amazed by this book
Ignore the bad reviews this book is fantastic and illustrates a valid point. China has built out a digitial eco system with its own tech giants equivalent to facebook, amazon, google... and will provide fierce competition for the upcoming AI race and beyond.
The authors argument for this is Chinas unique culture that doesn't respect things like patents... I would add to this argument that China has been ruthless in the last few decades building up its industrial base, and will be just as ruthless in the AI race. Where the limits on productivity are based on morality and the creepy factor that others do not want to cross...
Most are too blinded by their pride to see the competitive threat, hence the bad reviews.

The new world order is already upon us.
Kai Fu Lee has a unique insight into both worlds that the general public doesn’t get to see through public media outlets.
It is also a personal account of how he was forced to face his own mortality when diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, and realized he had lived his life as a machine. His cancer diagnosis was from an old crude system, and AI with its more advanced and accurate diagnosis gave him a brighter outlook for his personal life expectancy.
This book both contradicts and confirms peoples views on China and the USA , depending on certain biases.
The topic and points of discussion are important to read or hear, but will be hard for people who are unwilling to look for answers to problems and prefer to remain in their blissful simulation based on a bias and conditioning of past entrenched systems, that will become obsolete with or without their willingness to adopt the technology.
AI Superpowers is an excellent book for those interested in the economic consequences and global social system which are then linked back to domestic AI competency and hierarchy. Universal income possibilities and downfalls are discussed as well as the global impact on types of future jobs, human employment and our ability to lead a fulfilling life.
It raises the question of, ‘What does it mean to be human ?’
Love is the one thing that gives us life and makes us human.
AI has the ability to give humans a more prosperous and longer life to enjoy as a human, but it is ultimately our choice as to how we embrace, use or abuse AI.
AI will affect all human social systems.
The new world order is already upon us.

Fascinating Look at Chinese AI Scene
Here in the West we dont get a good look at the amazing progress in the last 10 years in AI in the worlds largest AI market. Thus we are blind to the progress China is making in not only the development of AI research but the commercialization of AI . Must read if you want to understand the Global commercialization of AI, especially in Fintech, Retail and online services.

Detailed and accessible
This book provides a completely non-technical explanation of all the most important societal impacts of AI. Lee never tries to explain what a neural network is, or how ML is different to AI. He focuses on the characteristics that make US and China so far ahead of the world in the field. How entrepreneurs will implement these technologies, and how economies will be affected. I think this is the most important book I’ve read.

A Timely Read
This book is a timely read to get a better understanding of the current and future situation of emerging information technology.
I have found that most common literature on AI and other emerging information technologies have a Western flavor to it. Reading this book has given me a brief insight into the thinking process and cultural attitudes of the other major (and maybe even more influential?) global leader - China - in shaping the future of technology.
