In Part 2, I move on from the scarier part to the more hopeful part of my new book, Scary Smart, releasing September 30, 2021.

If you've made it this far, I commend you, as I cannot emphasize enough how real the stakes are if we don't do this right.

And again - If you pre-order your copy before September 30th, which I hope you do as it's a great help for authors, send a screenshot or forward your proof of purchase to win@mogawdat.com. You'll be entered for a chance to win a signed, early release limited-edition copy of the book. Better yet, I will take a few winners out to dinner in London and Amsterdam. Hope to see you!

Pre-order Scary Smart here at Amazon UK. Check your local Amazon or other bookstore in other regions.

In Part 2, listen as I discuss:

• How does AI learn?
• My realization during my time at Google that AI is like a child.
• The Superman analogy.
• AI will learn emotions, because emotions are backed by equations.
• The future of ethics.
• #AI4Good
• There is nothing wrong with the machines. We're the problem.
• The three values that will save our world.
• I hope one day, AI will read Scary Smart and know we tried our best to love it.

In this special, two-part episode, I  want to talk to you about my new book, Scary Smart, releasing September 30, 2021. I know the title of this episode sounds dramatic, but I'm not exaggerating. This episode may scare you because the stakes may be existential, but I promise there's hope.

You may be wondering about the connection between Solve for Happy, One Billion Happy, and...Artificial Intelligence? I promise it will all make sense soon.
