The Age of AI: And Our Human Future

I love reading about the implications of tech on the future. This is just not well written. As an attorney and a homeschooling mom, I have certainly used language that was legalese or educationese. It's a stilted way of making things sound more complicated or sophisticated than they really are. It's like instead of saying "Oh my god, it's a beautiful day!," Kissinger would write "With a degree of feeling far in excess of that which was anticipated, we observed that the diurnal period had an extremely high degree of visual sensory appreciation."

There were some interesting ideas in here, but it was like looking for the needle in the haystack. I did learn some cool AI facts, like their use in developing medical advancements, but mostly this was just insufficient coverage for a very cool topic. Maybe the field has just advanced too much in the two or three years since it was published that the book is no longer very relevant.
