Critics Review
‘In this exciting and brilliantly reported book, Kevin Roose takes us behind the scenes of the secretive race to create artificial general intelligence. It’s filled with drama and bitter rivalries, very colorful characters and fascinating breakthroughs. He makes the technology understandable while also conveying the historic nature of a new world being born’ – Walter Isaacson
‘By taking us inside the deeply human culture where AGI is being built, Kevin Roose brilliantly captures a truth I’ve long argued: AI is not an alien invasion, but a profound product of our own humanity. It is a tool we are creating from within ourselves to reach beyond our biological limitations. The AGI Chronicles provides the vital human context for the intelligence explosion ahead’ – Ray Kurzweil, Inventor, Futurist, Author of The Singularity Is Nearer
