AI Superpowers

Adi Suresh 

A very gripping account on the emergence of AI, this is a must read book for futurists. Though its not 100 percent surety that AI would disrupt the work force, one simply can't lean back and take laid back approach, in 10 years time the landscape of human work force will likely be reduced by a 25 %! I did however have a few apprehension as I recently studied about the iridium case,it was billed to be the next big thing in the early 2000's, another case study on similar lines was navtech, that being that and after evaluating both sides of the argument, I can say in good stead that AI will be our century's next industrial revolution only way more faster.

Replacing human labour and battling in AI supremacy. 

Political collapce may occur due massive unemployment.

Seems book is orientend way too much on China, even most implementation happens there, it's bit biased.

** spoiler alert **
           This book is kind of a mish-mash of different topics, it talks about the entrepreneurial environment in China, about what stages AI will go through as it becomes widely deployed in our economy. Then the author reflects on his life after he was diagnosed with cancer, and realizes he’s spending his whole life dedicated to being a public figure, and working at the expense of his relationships. 

The mix of topics, ranging from business to work ethic to love, is good. The thing tying all these together is that the author tries to be realistic about the danger our society faces as we put millions of people out of work, without a guarantee that they’ll have a job to do afterwards, and that we should shift our way we value people from their economic value to the value they bring to society. He stresses we should become more human, as we leave many tasks to the machine.

super fast read; pretty interesting perspective from a FOB who ultimately returned to China during the dotcom boom
