The Digital Ape: how to live (in peace) with smart machines by Roger Hampson, Nigel Shadbolt

Nigel Shadbolt is one of the most fascinating and important scientists alive today.
Jim Al-Khalili

There has never been a more important time to discuss what it means to be human, in the past, now, and in the future. This is a book for anyone interested in getting behind the headlines and understanding how technology is impacting our world. The writers are two masters in their field who are not only erudite but immensely humane and compassionate.
Martha Lane Fox

This is a brilliantly readable, genuinely cutting-edge book that is also often very entertaining. Of all the recent studies of automation and AI, The Digital Ape stands head and shoulders above the rest. Shadbolt and Hampson have written a landmark book.
Andrew Keen, Author of How to Fix the Future and The Internet is Not the Answer

All explore the relationship between the human animal and what might be its most momentous creation yet: artificial intelligence … In a series of wide-ranging chapters, the authors argue that human beings are not just distinguished by their ability to use tools but also largely shaped by it.
