Here’s the post and yes you could say it’s an exciting time to be alive or you could say, actually it’s bloody terrifying!
I was delighted to attend the launch of Richard Susskind’s new book “How to think about AI – a guide for the perplexed”.
Richard gave a characteristically erudite speech (all without a note) explaining this was his first stab at writing a book to inform and educate the general public. Surveying the history of the development of AI Richard note how developments taking years are now coming in months and that regulation is too inflexible since that looks to AI today whilst AI will be very different by this time next year!
If the book is only half as good as the speech – buy it now!
Joshua Rozenberg recorded the speech so I expect he will make that available before long.
Good to spend time with friends on such a lovely occasion and make new friends. This is an exciting time to be alive.
