Ai Superpowers

DR. KAI-FU LEE is the chairman and CEO of Sinovation Ventures, a leading technology-savvy investment firm dedicated to the development of the next generation of Chinese high-tech enterprises. Lee was the President of Google China before launching Sinovation in 2009. He previously worked as an executive at Microsoft, SGI, and Apple.

Lee argues persuasively in this thought-provoking book Ai Superpowers that big changes will occur far sooner than many of us predicted due to remarkable breakthroughs in AI. Indeed, as the US-China AI battle heats up, Lee urges both countries to acknowledge and embrace the enormous responsibilities that come with tremendous technological strength.

According to most experts, AI will have a disastrous influence on blue-collar jobs. However, Lee believes that both Chinese and American AI will have a significant impact on white-collar occupations. Is universal basic income the answer? Probably not, according to Lee. However, he presents a clear account of which jobs will be affected and when, which jobs can be upgraded with AI, and, most importantly, how we might supply solutions to some of the most profound shifts in human history's future.
