Eric Jacobson On Management And Leadership

Mastering AI  by  Jeremy Kahn  is absolutely a must-read for every business leader who wants to better understand the history and evolution of AI (Artificial Intelligence), and more important, the promise and perils of AI for businesses and society. Even if you think you have a basic understanding of AI, this book is an essential resource for you.   That is because Kahn delivers not only a timely, thorough and thought-provoking examination of AI’s benefits to humanity as well as its potentially chilling dangers, but also and vitally, a declaration for how we should proceed as AI evolves. Reading  Mastering AI  reminded me of the popular  The Popcorn Report  by Faith Popcorn – where in 1992 she identified and forecasted trends to chart the future's impact on our businesses, our lives, and our world.  Similarly,  Fortune  magazine journalist, Kahn, draws on his expertise and extensive contacts among the companies and scientists at the...

The primary question this new book answers is, how can we use AI (Artificial Intelligence) to unlock humanity’s full potential while protecting what is most precious about the human experience?   Throughout Transcend: Unlocking Humanity In The Age of AI , author Faisal Hoque asks us to not only try to better understand AI, but also to better understand ourselves.  He asks the big questions—about values, ethics, and trust. And f ortunately, he offers practical and thought-provoking methods for navigating the uncharted waters of AI.    “As humanity takes its first steps into the Age of Artificial Intelligence, we are only just beginning to think through the possibilities and the dangers this technology brings,” shares Hoque. “But we do not have time for leisurely speculation. AI will overturn the world we know in our lifetimes, and we must prepare ourselves to meet the unprecedented changes that will soon be upon us.”   Within the book, Hoque looks at quest...
