Artificial Intelligence is only partially visible, just like an iceberg. To understand it fully, we must look beneath the surface. The positiveside is that technology is making machines smarter. However, the deeperview explained in this book shows that AI is also making a growingnumber of people cognitively and psychologically dependent on digitalnetworks.

Whether you are a social media fanatic, a diehard AIaficionado, or a paranoid sceptic, it is impossible to escape theubiquitous impact of AI. Artificial Intelligence is the brains bringingtogether quantum computing, nanotechnology, medical technology,brain-machine interface, robotics, aerospace, 5G, Internet of Things,and more. It is amplifying human ingenuity and disrupting thefoundations of healthcare, military, entertainment, education, marketing and manufacturing.

Artificial Intelligence and The Future of Power argues that this AI-driven revolution will have an unequal impact ondifferent segments of humanity. There will be new winners and losers,new haves and have-nots, resulting in an unprecedented concentration ofwealth and power.

After analyzing society's vulnerabilities tothe impending tsunami, the book raises troubling questions that provokeimmediate debate: Is the world headed toward digital colonization by the USA and China? Will depopulation become eventually unavoidable?

Artificial Intelligence and The Future of Power is a wakeup call to action, compelling public intellectuals to be betterinformed and more engaged. It educates the social segments most at riskand wants them to demand a seat at the table where policies onArtificial Intelligence are being formulated.
