What is AI, really-and how will we prepare for it?

Some say we should fear it. Others say worship it. But what's real, what's hype, and how will it actually impact our lives?

Whether you're a total novice or simply want to round out your knowledge, this book is your one-stop crash course on AI. James Wang, former hedge fund investor at Bridgewater Associates, start-up entrepreneur, and now deep tech venture capitalist, cuts through the hype with clarity and insight. He explains both AI's true superpowers and its hard limits.

By the end, you will understand how AI is already transforming our world-and what is still to come.
