In a world where algorithms influence what we read, buy, and believe, how do we keep technology deeply human? From Human Networks to Artificial Intelligence: Behavioral Prompting as a Social Blueprint explains, in plain language, how ideas spread through people and how carefully designed prompts can steer AI toward clearer, fairer, more useful outcomes. You'll discover why a few "influential nodes" can sway entire communities and how the same dynamics apply to AI systems through the prompts and inputs we choose. Drawing on vivid, real-world scenes from customer service to the classroom, Ricardo Yukio Matsuo shows how small changes in tone and context transform results and trust. You'll learn practical ways to craft prompts that reduce bias and align technology with human values, turning brittle exchanges into meaningful conversations. The book also confronts the ethics we can't ignore transparency, accountability, and social responsibility offering a grounded framework for builders, leaders, and everyday users alike. Finally, Matsuo looks ahead to the near future of AI: more adaptive, conversational, and emotionally aware systems and what that means for how we design, manage, and live with them. Clear, practical, and hopeful, this is a guide for anyone who wants to shape technology that listens better and helps people more.
