The God We Made: The Threat and Promise of Artificial Intelligence; Quarterly Essay 102


Overview

Humanity in the age of AI How will we be changed by the rise of artificial intelligence? In this scintillating essay, Anna Goldsworthy argues that AI is a rupture that makes us confront what it is to be human - what we do, and want. As it learns human ways, AI raises big questions about work, leisure and education. It brings new existential, social and ethical risks. Above all, it invites us to consider what is irreplaceable in us, starting with the body and the friction of others. The God We Made is a brilliant inquiry into identity and a transformed future. How can we learn to live with AI? And will AI be happy to live with us? ""The experts have spoken, but many of us remain curiously unprepared, burying our heads in the sand - Look at its hallucinations! It's never going to be as smart as us! - or imagining that the only issue is plagiarism. AI is not just another tool- it is a paradigm shift, a ceding of our superiority."" -Anna Goldsworthy, The God We Made
