Klappentext Understand the way in which AI and robots will change the world and the way we live in it. Zusammenfassung Extraordinary innovations in technology promise to transform the world, but how realistic is the claim that AI will change our lives? In this much needed book the acclaimed economist Roger Bootle responds to the fascinating economic questions posed by the age of the robot, steering a path away from tech jargon and alarmism towards a rational explanation of the ways in which the AI revolution will affect us all.

A fundamentally optimistic view which will help you plan for changing times, this book explains AI and leads you towards a more certain future.
