Description
I, Human: AI, Automation, and the Quest to Reclaim What Makes Us Unique -
For readers of Sapiens and Homo Deus and viewers of The Social Dilemma, psychologist Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic tackles one of the biggest questions facing our species: Will we use artificial intelligence to improve the way we work and live, or will we allow it to alienate us?
It's no secret that AI is changing the way we live, work, love, and entertain ourselves. Dating apps are using AI to pick our potential partners. Retailers are using AI to predict our behavior and desires. Rogue actors are using AI to persuade us with bots and misinformation. Companies are using AI to hire us—or not.
In I, Human psychologist Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic takes readers on an enthralling and eye-opening journey across the AI landscape. Though AI has the potential to change our lives for the better, he argues, AI is also worsening our bad tendencies, making us more distracted, selfish, biased, narcissistic, entitled, predictable, and impatient.
It doesn't have to be this way. Filled with fascinating insights about human behavior and our complicated relationship with technology, I, Human will help us stand out and thrive when many of our decisions are being made for us. To do so, we'll need to double down on our curiosity, adaptability, and emotional intelligence while relying on the lost virtues of empathy, humility, and self-control.
This is just the beginning. As AI becomes smarter and more humanlike, our societies, our economies, and our humanity will undergo the most dramatic changes we've seen since the Industrial Revolution. Some of these changes will enhance our species. Others may dehumanize us and make us more machinelike in our interactions with people. It's up to us to adapt and determine how we want to live and work.
The choice is ours. What will we decide?

<p>Elon Musk named Our Final Invention one of 5 books everyone should read about the future<br><br>A Huffington Post Definitive Tech Book of 2013<br><br>In as little as a decade, artificial intelligence could match and then surpass human intelligence. Corporations and government agencies around the world are pouring billions into achieving AI's Holy Grail―human-level intelligence. Once AI has attained it, scientists argue, it will have survival drives much like our own. We may be forced to compete with a rival more cunning, more powerful, and more alien than we can imagine.<br><br>Through profiles of tech visionaries, industry watchdogs, and groundbreaking AI systems, James Barrat's Our Final Invention explores the perils of the heedless pursuit of advanced AI. Until now, human intelligence has had no rival. Can we coexist with beings whose intelligence dwarfs our own? And will they allow us to?</p> <br><br> Publisher : St. Martin's Griffin; Reprint edition (February 17, 2015) <br> Language : English <br> Paperback : 336 pages <br> ISBN-10 : 1250058783 <br> ISBN-13 : 978-1250058782 <br> Item Weight : 9.6 ounces <br> Dimensions : 5.5 x 0.85 x 8.25 inches <br>

<p>When you look at your organization, you’ll find that it lives in two places – its process and values. The human element is the common link between these two. Look closer, and you’ll realize that the same emotions that seek to increase a company’s productivity are often the same forces that can undermine a company’s core values. Understanding how to direct and control those emotions—both inside and outside an organization—is the core theme of this book.</p><p>Leading with Emotional Intelligence presents practical and straightforward guidance you can put to immediate use in your business or group. Learn how to tap into the most valuable asset you have and implement strategies to grow revenue, reduce costs, and provide stakeholder value.</p><p>Many organizations still function in an outdated way, refusing to examine the processes and values that drive their business. Leading with Emotional Intelligence captures lessons learned from interviews I’ve had with C-level executives, managers, self-made billionaires, mayors, and scientists over the last several years and draws upon research in neuroscience, organizational psychology, and real-world studies.</p><p>The techniques provided here are helpful for every type of leader and organization, from the government sector to commercial enterprises, from small businesses to large corporations. Discover concrete steps for modifying your leadership style for employee retention, stakeholder engagement, and to drive away customer dissatisfaction.</p> <br><br> ASIN : B09WY71X2K <br> Publisher : Kevin Mann (April 4, 2022) <br> Publication date : April 4, 2022 <br> Language : English <br> File size : 3299 KB <br> Text-to-Speech : Enabled <br> Screen Reader : Supported <br> Enhanced typesetting : Enabled <br> X-Ray : Not Enabled <br> Word Wise : Enabled <br> Sticky notes : On Kindle Scribe <br> Print length : 229 pages <br>
