Book Recommendations

“AI: Unexplainable, Unpredictable, Uncontrollable”

Roman Yampolskiy

Explores the inherent challenges and risks of artificial intelligence, arguing that advanced AI systems are difficult to understand, predict, and control.

“If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies: Why Superhuman AI Would Kill Us All”

Eliezer Yudkowsky & Nate Soares

Explains how humanity would lose against an AI system that is generally more competent than they are. It is hard to predict the exact path, as that would mean being as good at achieving goals as the AI system, but there are some paths available to it. Superintelligence would not care about humans, but it would want the resources that humans need. Humanity would thus lose and go extinct.

“Artificial Bodies: How Machines Replace People”

Remmelt Ellen

Explains how Big Tech grows by making workers expendable – ultimately by replacing us fussy humans with consistent, faster, stronger machines. We face a parasitic system of extraction, one that will keep feeding on society to grow, even after a market crash. Unless we act to stop it.
