Kai-Fu Lee – AI Superpowers Audiobook
An exceptional evaluation of Chinese activity in expert system from ground absolutely no perspective.

The prompting case for both Lee’s publication along with another similar present effort (Artificial Instinct: The Unlikely Deep Knowing Transformation, by Carlos Perez) is the present victory in Go of an AI- based system over the very best human champ of that old computer game.

All that leads into Lee’s clear- spotted handle the work ramifications of the brand name- brand-newAI Lee is no Elon Musk, because he does not see AI positioning any sort of timely existential threat to the human types.
