Ebook: The Digital Ape

The smart-machines revolution is re-shaping our lives and our societies. Here, Nigel Shadbolt (one of Britain's leading authorities on artificial intelligence) and Roger Hampson dispel terror, confusion, and misconception. We are not about to be elbowed aside by a rebel army of super-intelligent robots of our own creation. We were using tools before we became Homo sapiens, and will continue to control them. How we exercise that control ? in our private lives, in employment, in politics ? and make the best of the wonderful opportunities, will determine our collective future well-being.
