392 booksWelcome to Superintelligence. This is the book that potentially arms us against our own creations. Are we really ready for machine superintelligence? Will this new intelligence surpass humanity in general intelligence?
This new super-intelligent entity could become extremely powerful and decide the fate of humankind.
