Humans Need Not Apply

AI expert Jerry Kaplan, in *Humans Need Not Apply*, presents an "intriguing, insightful" analysis (The Economist, Books of the Year) of how advanced artificial intelligence and robotics will reshape society. While promising a new age of affluence, Kaplan warns that the transition could be "protracted and brutal," exacerbating volatile labor markets and income inequality. He proposes innovative, free-market adjustments to economic and social policies to avert widespread social unrest. Offering pragmatic solutions to a shrinking pool of jobs (Financial Times), this timely book for business leaders and policymakers reminds us that "AI systems don't need red laser eyes to be dangerous" (Times Higher Education Supplement).
