Nigel Toon: How AI Thinks

The leading British AI entrepreneur, Nigel Toon, explains why AI is so exciting and how it can be controlled. His surprising and optimistic new book shows how we can harness the electrifying intelligence of machines. AI is a tool that we can not only control but also use to harness our own amazing human intelligence. And it will perform many of the routine pieces of work that take up far too much of our time. “We need to understand it,” he writes, “because it will end up changing our lives, and perhaps more importantly, changing the lives of the next generation.”
