Description

Fears about how AI will utterly transform our lives in the years ahead are rampant. From replacing us in our jobs, to posing an existential threat to humanity itself, there’s no end to the negative hype this technological revolution has fueled. But what if our fears are simply unfounded, part of a predictable short-sighted response of rejecting change like the Luddites did two centuries earlier when machines revolutionized the textile industry. In his new book "Superagency, What Could Possibly Go Right with Our AI Future" Linked-in Co-Founder Reid Hoffman argues that our fear-focused response to AI ignores the incredible promise this technological revolution holds. Reid joined The Excerpt to share his thoughts.
