Mastering AI: A Survival Guide to Our Superpowered Future – Book Launch and Updates
Hello and welcome to Eye on AI!
Today, I have some exciting news to share. My book, “Mastering AI: A Survival Guide to Our Superpowered Future,” is officially being published by Simon & Schuster in the U.S. This book aims to provide readers with an essential primer on how AI is poised to impact our personal and professional lives, our economy, and society as a whole.
In the book, I delve into the potential of AI technology and the questions it raises. From the fear of AI taking over jobs to concerns about misinformation and even existential risks, I address these topics and offer insights on how we can navigate the challenges posed by AI.
Through interviews with key figures in the AI industry, including leaders from OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Anthropic, I provide a comprehensive look at the current state of AI development and its implications for the future.
While AI holds tremendous promise in boosting productivity, advancing healthcare, and enhancing democracy, there are also significant risks that need to be addressed. From the erosion of critical human skills to the exacerbation of inequality and geopolitical tensions, AI presents complex challenges that require careful consideration.
In “Mastering AI,” I propose a series of steps to mitigate these risks and ensure that AI is developed and regulated responsibly. By emphasizing the importance of human decision-making and empathy in high-consequence domains and reframing AI as a complement to human intelligence, we can harness the potential of AI for the greater good.
In addition to the book, I have also written an excerpt for Fortune on how AI could exacerbate filter bubbles but also help combat polarization with the right design choices. The book is now available for purchase online and at your favorite bookstore.
In other AI news, the GOP’s new stance on AI regulation, the Rome Call for AI Ethics signed by leaders of major world religions, and Nicolas Cage’s concerns about AI using his likeness are all topics making headlines in the AI world.

Best,
Jeremy Kahn
