A WALL STREET JOURNAL, WASHINGTON POST, AND FINANCIAL TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR. This groundbreaking blend of imaginative storytelling and scientific forecasting addresses a crucial question: How will artificial intelligence transform our world in the next twenty years? AI is poised to be the defining development of the twenty-first century, radically altering daily life. It will generate immense wealth, revolutionize medicine and education through human-machine collaboration, and create new forms of communication and entertainment. However, the liberation from routine work will also challenge our economic and social structures. Additionally, AI presents risks, including autonomous weapons and technology that may inherit human biases. As we approach a tipping point, it is essential to recognize both AI's potential benefits and its existential threats. In this original work of "scientific fiction," a former Google China president and a celebrated novelist envision our world in 2041 through ten gripping short stories. These narratives explore various scenarios, such as a new industry in San Francisco aiding displaced workers, immersive celebrity worship in Tokyo, a teenage girl's rebellion against AI in Mumbai, virtual teachers in Seoul, and a rogue scientist's plot in Munich. By looking ahead, the work provides urgent insights into our collective future while emphasizing that humanity ultimately shapes its own destiny.
