This is a good book to understand the power of AI and its predictions better. As taken from the book, the following are some of the key issues discussed: 

 

AI prediction is already having a system change effect on the innovation process. This gives a glimpse into what changes may be required elsewhere. Disruption as a process involves a redistribution of economic power—that is, under the new system, those who create the most economic value will change. 

AI is all about prediction and is input into decision-making, power comes not from 

machines—even though they might look powerful—but from those behind the machines, guiding how they react to predictions, what we call judgment. 

 

When prediction involves a change from a rule to a decision and then to a new system, new people have a role in decision-making and therefore become the new locus of power. The reason is that predictions are a key input into decision-making. 

 

It is also interesting to read about the discriminative nature of AI. AI is susceptible to bias is something to worry about I guess. as it adopts the data keyed in by humans. However, the good news is that AI can also reduce discrimination. 

 

Definitely a must-read for those wanting to learn more about AIs. I know I had a better understanding of the subject matter after reading this book.
