Summary of Henry Kissinger, Eric Schmidt, and Daniel Huttenlocher’s The Age of AI

Human beings have made tremendous progress in the past 100 years in science, technology, and many other domains. In fact, since the invention of artificial intelligence in 1955, the world has been gradually shifting toward a new era. In The Age of AI (2021), three leading contemporary thinkers go deeply into the details of AI, how it behaves, how it affects human life, and where it may lead us. AI already is affecting social media in major ways, showing us how it can change human behavior, and achieving exponential feats of intelligence.
