Contents:

Welcome to the future -- Teaching computers to fish -- Teaching robots to heel -- Robotic pickpockets -- The gods are angry -- Officer, arrest that robot -- America, land of the free shipping -- America, home of the brave pharaohs -- Take this job and automate it -- The fix is in -- Outroduction : welcome to your children's future.

Summary: Researchers are finally cracking the code on artificial intelligence. It has the potential to usher in a new age of affluence and leisure-- but as Kaplan warns, the transition may be protracted and brutal unless we address the two great scourges of the modern developed world: volatile labor markets and income inequality. He proposes innovative, free-market adjustments to our economic system and social policies to avoid an extended period of social turmoil.-- Source other than Library of Congress.
