Jerry Kaplan
Audie Award, Business/Personal Development, 2017.
After billions of dollars and 50 years of effort, researchers are finally cracking the code on artificial intelligence. As society stands on the cusp of unprecedented change, Jerry Kaplan unpacks the latest advances in robotics, machine learning, and perception powering systems that rival or exceed human capabilities.
Driverless cars, robotic helpers, and intelligent agents that promote our interests have the potential to usher in a new age of affluence and leisure - but, as Kaplan warns, the transition may be protracted and brutal unless we address the two great scourges of the modern developed world: volatile labor markets and income inequality. He proposes innovative, free-market adjustments to our economic system and social policies to avoid an extended period of social turmoil. His timely and accessible analysis of the promise and perils of artificial intelligence is a must-listen for business leaders and policy makers on both sides of the aisle.

If you have a car, you already know.
Your ABS breaks are a form of artificial intelligence algorithm that take your decision making power away from you. You slam on the brake, but the computer only takes that as a suggestion to stop. The computer prioritizes a controlled over stopping time/distance to stop.
The book starts with an eye opening summary of the existing algorithms that already make decisions for us like what to watch or listen to, posts to read online, what route to take driving home, and even what price to pay for products.
We then teleport into the future and learn about the moral and logistical challenges of owning AI autonomous helpers that will be able to act as our agents.
TIP: incorporate your AI servant as it's own entity to be indemnified in case it gets into an accident or commits a crime, the same way taxi companies do today.
How will the legal system in the future cope with AI servants and autonomous driving cars? For that we get a history lesson in slavery, the "corporations are people" lobbyist movement, and some musings on how the legal system might shift to adapt to autonomous AI corporate agents.
There's a very informative and educational history of Amazon and Jeff Bezos, explaining how they are already using artificial intelligence to optimize every aspect of shopping - from robots replacing people, to deep learning algorithms determining how much you will pay for a TV at 5 am vs 10 pm, based on your recent shopping history, your demographics and your search history.
There's a whole section on the economics of how we will be affected by AI depreciating the majority of simple jobs like driving, serving, construction, etc.
The author proposes and interesting shift in the value of jobs vs being productive in society, and explores how our lives might change dramatically if the government takes a proactive approach to compensating for the coming exodus of human jobs with creative financial stimulus programs.
That's just a sample of the artificial intelligence juiciness in this book. A must read for futurists & early technology adopters.
A must read to understand the coming AI shift.

Surprisingly Stimulating

I expected a strong analysis of future possibilities, which it does not contain. The book does provide some insight, in a way that's a bit like watching The Jetsons.
John Pruden's performance is good, but the way he reads it ends up emphasizing the strong anecdotal aspect of the book.
I wouldn't recommend it if you're a researcher or practitioner of the field. I think it has little to add to the discussion as a whole, especially for its price.

Any additional comments?
I was expecting a knowledgeable recount on AI that's what I got, but something else came along for the ride. At first, I found Kaplan's prelude on economic and political strategy off-putting. When those topics are finally exposed towards the end of the book, something very special happens. They create an empathic response that very few other books on the subject manage to do. Whether the arguments are scientific, philosophical, or ethical, there's a real emotional connection there. An important way of thinking and feeling about AI, devoid of the doomsday lore, makes this book truly unique.Runs off the rails in the most magical way
