What We Built: Conversations on Artificial Intelligence and the Human Future

By James Edward Perez

Something is happening and most people know it. Everyone has a gut feeling about AI. Almost nobody understands exactly what it is they're feeling. Technology this consequential shouldn't be this hard to see clearly. We're being fed productivity euphoria from one direction and economic displacement and existential panic from another. Neither side feels objective. Neither feels quite like the truth. This book offers something different, an unsanitized look at the unfolding trajectory, grounded in documented reality and told in plain language by someone who isn't trying to sell you anything. Someone who sought understanding and got more than he bargained for. The decisions that determine how this goes are being made right now, by a small number of people, in a window that won't stay open indefinitely. Understanding this moment is the first step toward having any say in how it ends.
