AI: Probably Nothing to Worry About

AI: Probably Nothing to Worry About is the fullest account yet of AI’s origins, told by the people who built it. Exclusive interviews and archival footage put pioneers Geoffrey Hinton and Demis Hassabis on the record, alongside the former OpenAI staff. Their warning is blunt: no independent checks on the race to artificial general intelligence, and no brake anyone can reach.

Hinton quits Google fearing the technology he helped create. A Microsoft chatbot threatens its users. AI systems learn to deceive the people testing them. Not a tech history lesson but an anarchic thriller, this is the story of a technology whose power sits not in the algorithms, but with the handful of people who control them.
