A ground-breaking book from AI entrepreneur Mustafa Suleyman is a great guide to the technological revolution just starting & the transformed world it will create.

The book establishes “the containment problem” – the task of maintaining control over precious & powerful technologies as the essential challenge of our age. Fascinating. A heartfelt, sharp & candid exploration of what the future may hold for us. Eloquently articulated.
