Description

From a leading futurist and OneShared.World founder, a "brilliant" book that explores how artificial intelligence and other revolutionary technologies are transforming our lives–and our future (Sanjay Gupta).

New technologies have the potential to improve our health, feed billions of people, supercharge our economies, store essential information for millions of years, and save our planet. But if we're not careful, they can also do immeasurable harm. Luckily, in Jamie Metzl, we have a leading expert who integrates science, technology, history, politics, and international affairs to envision a future that most specialists, almost by definition, cannot see. 

In this bold and inspiring exploration of transformative human knowledge, Metzl gives us the definitive account of the technological precipice on which we stand and the map to where we go from here.
