The debut of ChatGPT on November 30th was a watershed moment in the history of technology. We stand on the threshold of a new age – one where content of all kinds, even software itself, will be conjured, seemingly from thin air, with simple conversation. In a culture fraught with misinformation, Mastering AI pierces through the thicket of exaggerated claims, explaining how we arrived at this moment and mapping the likely long-term impacts on business, economics, culture and society this potent technology will have. This book will serve as a guide to those dangers – as well as highlighting the technology’s transformative potential – and will pinpoint concrete steps that should be taken to regulate generative AI.
