The Coming Wave

by Mustafa Suleyman, with Michael Bhaskar

Suleyman is a co-founder of Deep Mind, one of the world’s leading AI development companies, now owned by Microsoft, where he is CEO of Microsoft AI. So he really knows what he’s talking about and in this book he explores what AI might mean for humanity, both good and bad, and makes a passionate case for the need for oversight and a focus on AI safety.

It’s not the best-written book I’ve read on AI (don’t misunderstand, it’s still pretty good) but Suleyman’s views on the wave that is about to crash over us are compelling and based on profound understanding and expertise.
