The Reverse Centaur's Guide to Life After AI: How to Think About Artificial Intelligence—Before It's Too Late

by Cory Doctorow

Cory Doctorow's short, sharp polemic argues that AI's trillion-dollar valuations depend on mass job losses actually happening, and that the hype cycle exists to make that outcome feel inevitable. Ideal for readers who want a fast, argument-driven counter to the standard AI-boosterism.
