As AI's power grows, so does the need to figure out what  and who  this technology is really for. \u003ci\u003eAI Needs You\u003c\/i\u003e argues that it is critical for society to take the lead in answering this urgent question and ensuring that AI fulfills its promise.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerity Harding draws inspiring lessons from the histories of three twentieth-century tech revolutions  the space race, in vitro fertilisation, and the internet  to empower each of us to join the conversation about AI and its possible futures. Sharing her perspective as a leading insider in technology and politics, she rejects the dominant narrative, which often likens AI's advent to that of the atomic bomb. History points the way to an achievable future in which democratically determined values guide AI to be peaceful in its intent; to embrace limitations; to serve purpose, not profit; and to be firmly rooted in societal trust.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAI Needs You\u003c\/i\u003e gives us hope that we, the people, can imbue AI with a deep intentionality that reflects our best values, ideals, and interests, and that serves the public good. AI will permeate our lives in unforeseeable ways, but it is clear that the shape of AI's future  and of our own  cannot be left only to those building it. It is up to us to guide this technology away from our worst fears and toward a future that we can trust and believe in.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46803907444894,"sku":"ADS-9780691277479","price":29.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9780691277479.jpg?v=1778207060","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9780691277479","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
