THE FOLLOW UP TO THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER THE AGE OF AI

Artificial Intelligence is raising urgent questions about the future of humanity – whose contours and consequences are revealed by three eminent thinkers in Genesis.

AI will help us to address enormous crises, from climate change to geopolitical conflicts to income inequality. It might well solve some of the greatest mysteries of our universe, revolutionize fields as diverse as medicine and architecture, and elevate the human spirit to unimaginable heights. But it will also pose challenges on a scale and of an intensity that we have never seen – usurping our power of independent judgment and action, testing our relationship with the divine, and perhaps even spurring a new phase in human evolution. Whom will we choose to lead our species through this wilderness? Or have we, passively and unwittingly, already chosen?

The last book of elder statesman Henry Kissinger, written with technologists Eric Schmidt and Craig Mundie, it prepares the decisionmakers of today – that is, all of us – for the choices of tomorrow, and equips us to seize the opportunities presented by AI without falling prey to the darker forces that this revolution has unleashed. Charting a course between blind faith and unjustified fear, Genesis outlines an effective strategy for navigating the age of AI.

 

timely exploration of the relationship between artificial intelligence and knowledge, power, and politics, this book pushes us to think hard about the risk and potential AI holds for humanity
Mustafa Suleyman
What does AI mean for discovery? For truth? For security, prosperity and politics? In answering these questions, these three extraordinary thinkers are (characteristically) unafraid to tackle the biggest themes and most profound questions around the dominant technology of our times. Epic in scope, bracing in clarity and always rooted in deep experience, this is an essential read
Walter Isaacson
In the coming Age of Artificial Intelligence, what will be the role of humans? In the final years of his life, Henry Kissinger immersed himself in studying AI, and he coauthored this book with technologists Eric Schmidt and Craig Mundie. It is a profound exploration of how we can protect human dignity and values in an era of autonomous machines
Sam Altman
This important book offers one of the first real looks at the future now in front of us - a future of almost limitless possibility, along with very complex new challenges
Larry Summers
Kissinger, Mundie and Schmidt provide the deepest reflections we yet have on the opportunities and challenges posed by the looming AI-shaped global system. Readers of their book will learn something profoundly important. Before we can even think about new policies regarding AI, we will need to develop new conceptions of human reason and humanity itself. This book was Henry Kissinger's final work. It may well prove his most prophetic and important. It is profoundly important reading
Fareed Zakaria
The next great technological revolution - in artificial intelligence - is already happening. While much of the conversation is about what AI can do and where AI will go, this book brilliantly reframes the discussionHow will human beings relate to AI? How does this thrilling, terrifying new scientific explosion change our conception of what it means to be human. You would expect a profound book given the three authors involved - and you will get it
Satya Nadella
The authors of Genesis raise profound questions that are best answered by placing intelligent tools and technologies in the hands of people, empowering them with real agency to be more confident, more capable, and more in control
Graham Allison
A must read for anyone trying to think seriously about the challenges posed by AI. Genesis captures what we know-and most importantly don't know-about the dangers posed by the unconstrained advance of AI. Drawing on lessons learned in the nuclear age, Kissinger and his colleagues illuminate the murky path ahead
Ian Bremmer
Kissinger, Schmidt, and Mundie have crafted a roadmap for navigating our near-future in which unimaginably powerful and ubiquitous AI systems have become autonomous. Their insights into the practical and philosophical implications of humanity's first encounter with a superior intelligence are sobering and inspiring, challenging us to rethink our relationship with technology and our place in the universe. Genesis is vital reading for anyone seeking to understand how AI will reshape our world and what it takes to remain human in the age of intelligent machines
James Manyika
Genesis is thought-provoking in the best way - a much needed exploration of AI's implications for humanity's progress and what makes us human. It is also a roadmap for how we can harness AI's possibilities, address its challenges, and ultimately co-exist with intelligent machines in the age of AI

Henry Kissinger served in the US Army during the Second World War and subsequently held teaching posts in history and government at Harvard University for twenty years. He served as National Security Advisor and then Secretary of State under Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, and has advised many other American presidents on foreign policy. He received the 1973 Nobel Peace Prize, the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and the Medal of Liberty, among other awards. He is the author of numerous books and articles on foreign policy and diplomacy, and is currently Chairman of Kissinger Associates, Inc., an international consulting firm.

Eric Schmidt served as Google’s CEO from 2001 to 2011. During that time he shepherded the company’s growth from a Silicon Valley start-up to a global technology leader that today has over $55 billion in annual revenues and offices in more than 40 countries. Eric is now Google’s executive chairman.

Craig Mundie is President of Mundie & Associates, which counsels CEOs on strategic issues caused by rapidly evolving information technologies. At the end of 2014 Mundie retired after a twenty-two-year career at Microsoft. During his transition year he was the Senior Advisor to the CEO, before which he was Chief Research and Strategy Officer since 2007. Mundie was appointed by President Clinton and subsequently served for Presidents Clinton, Bush, and Obama on the National Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee. President Obama appointed him in 2009 to the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology.
