À propos de cet audio

This audiobook is masterfully read by the author, Mo Gawdat.

One of The Sunday Times' Business Books of the Year


Technology is putting our humanity at risk to an unprecedented degree. This book is not for engineers who write the code or the policy makers who claim they can regulate it. This is a book for you. Because, believe it or not, you are the only one that can fix it.Mo Gawdat

'From a brilliant mind comes a terrifying prediction' – Tim Ash, bestselling author of Unleash Your Primal Brain


Artificial intelligence is smarter than humans. It can process information at lightning speed and remain focused on specific tasks without distraction. AI can see into the future, predicting outcomes and even use sensors to see around physical and virtual corners. So why does AI frequently get it so wrong?

The answer is us. Humans design the algorithms that define the way that AI works, and the processed information reflects an imperfect world. Does that mean we are doomed? In Scary Smart, Mo Gawdat, the internationally bestselling author of Solve for Happy, draws on his considerable expertise to answer this question and to show what we can all do now to teach ourselves and our machines how to live better. With more than thirty years' experience working at the cutting-edge of technology and his former role as chief business officer of Google [X], no one is better placed than Mo Gawdat to explain how the Artificial Intelligence of the future works.

By 2049 AI will be a billion times more intelligent than humans. Scary Smart explains how to fix the current trajectory now, to make sure that the AI of the future can preserve our species. This audiobook offers a blueprint, pointing the way to what we can do to safeguard ourselves, those we love and the planet itself.

Ce que les critiques en disent

Mo Gawdat is my life guru. His writing, his ideas and his generosity in sharing them has changed my life for the better in so many ways. Everything he writes is an enlightening education in how to be human.
A proactive and bold read that provides the shake that humans need to take back our agency over AI, and therefore the fate of the world as we see it. (Dr Camilla Pang, author of Explaining Humans: What Science Can Teach Us About Life, Love and Relationships)
From a brilliant mind comes a terrifying prediction - our puny efforts will not be enough to control the rise of the machines... Mo takes us on a whirlwind exploration of the fast-approaching singularity, and offers a desperate last chance to have a say in the future of humanity. Read this book! (Tim Ash, bestselling author of Unleash Your Primal Brain)
Scary Smart is unlike anything I’ve ever read . . . What Mo does is help us analyze what it means to be human, by looking at what can or cannot happen with the rise of artificial intelligence. (Poppy Jamie, author and founder of Happy Not Perfect)
Our brain fog about artificial intelligence makes it both exciting and terrifying in equal measure, Mo Gawdat is the expert guide you need to help decipher the realities of a complex subject. Mo writes so beautifully that a complex subject reads like a page turner. (Bruce Daisley, Former Twitter VP and bestselling author of The Joy of Work)
As we face the future we can either choose to deny reality and suffer or face reality head on. We can withdraw into our own private worlds and give up on humanity or remain joyful and engaged to do our part to improve our future for our children, grandchildren, and future generations. The choice is ours. I’m choosing to “go with Mo.” (Jed Diamond, PhD, author of The Enlightened Marriage and Twelve Rules for Good Men)
I am so grateful for Mo's work - his ability to distill big ideas, share mind-blowing research and inspire change alongside kindness. His words have had a profound tangible impact on my life. No one ever regrets reading anything Mo Gawdat has written. (Emma Gannon, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Multi-Hyphen Method and host of award-winning podcast Ctrl Alt Delete)
The call from Mo is loud and clear: this is the greatest responsibility of our lifetimes - to evolve and take full responsibility for how we allow reality, and in this case AI, to echo back to us our inner thoughts and actions. Thank you for giving us this genius catalyst. (John Sanei, Future Strategist, best-selling author and Singularity University faculty member.)
Mo Gawdat shows, in this beautifully written book, the grave threat posed to humanity by failing to live up to our responsibility as AI's parents. He has the wisdom to know that the solution requires learning to love. (Donald Robertson, author of How to Think Like a Roman Emperor)

This book was brilliant. What an amazing perspective to hear. As someone who works in tech and with Ai, I constantly find myself thinking about my interactions with it. Nothing was left to ‘but what if?’ By the author. I questioned my morals even though I consider myself good. I deeply thought about how mg interactions today can shape the future. I am recommending this book to everyone.

The title says it all- scary smart!

Not only was this extremely informative, but it was presented in a way that was easy for anyone to understand. The overlayed message of love, caring and positivity perfectly balanced the dangers presented and left me hopeful for what’s to come in the future. See you at that campfire in 2055.

Incredible wake up call

Amazingly put together by a man who’s perspective on the future of artificial intelligence and it’s actual application in accordance to human nature’s hobbesian translation in the physical world is brilliantly elaborated in this book.

Lacks a bit of pdf support but well explained by the author.

Interesting perspective on anthropic’s AI

The first part of this book was very good and was on topic of AI. The last part of the book was heavily self promotional on his other books, apps, podcasts etc.

Great start on the topic...

Unscores the importance of the oldest lessons for humanity as we grapple with the rise of AI. It's time to decide what world we want to create.

Great voice, great journey

I finished it in 2 days.
It was very easy to understand.
After listening to this book I have a new understanding and respect for AI's.

A must read/listen as we speed into our future.

The first half was very good. However the final 3 chapters left me feeling not optimistic as the author intends but the reverse emotion. Can humanity as a whole really start behaving well to each other, the earth and all beings on it? He has no doubt of the super human intellect of the AI and how we choose to work with it to our collective advantage will make or break us. Well worth reading for it opened my thoughts to the infinite what ifs of humans choices.

Fascinating look at Ai just three years ago.

AI isn’t the problem, we are. Whatever we are, AI will be an exponentially more powerful image of that, and the direct reflection of what we teach it. Therefore, we need to teach it, and ourselves, love of all things. This is the message I got from this very important book on something that will affect every person and living being on the planet starting now and into the future.

Needs to be heard by everyone now

This was one of the worst books I've listened to in a long time...... Why?

Awful
