About this listen

THE NEW YORK TIMES, USA TODAY, AND WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER

Dr. Kai-Fu Lee - one of the world’s most respected experts on AI and China - reveals that China has suddenly caught up to the US at an astonishingly rapid and unexpected pace.

In AI Superpowers, Kai-fu Lee argues powerfully that because of these unprecedented developments in AI, dramatic changes will be happening much sooner than many of us expected. Indeed, as the US-Sino AI competition begins to heat up, Lee urges the US and China to both accept and to embrace the great responsibilities that come with significant technological power. Most experts already say that AI will have a devastating impact on blue-collar jobs. But Lee predicts that Chinese and American AI will have a strong impact on white-collar jobs as well. Is universal basic income the solution? In Lee’s opinion, probably not. But he provides a clear description of which jobs will be affected and how soon, which jobs can be enhanced with AI, and most importantly, how we can provide solutions to some of the most profound changes in human history that are coming soon.

An entertaining ride into AI

Loved the book thoroughly. However, it is confined to US vs China.

May be the next version can include breakthrough from human perspective (irrespective of country).

A bit biased but overall a good and compelling read

There is a reason why this book is among Yuval Noah Harari’s recommendation list. A deep dive into the history of AI, how it reached where it’s today and what lies in future. Kai-Fu Lee, one of the leading minds spearheading the AI revolution shares his insights about how AI will impact our lives and the important role that China and US are going to play in this revolution.
A must read for not just technology enthusiasts but everyone interested in the future of mankind.

A bold and emotional work on the future of machine

Kai Fu lee has shared a unique perspective from his own personal challenge in being a cancer patient and has related that to the bigger reality that at the end of the day we are all we have. A must-read for all who are worried about the future of the labour market and he onset of the AI age.
