Whether you are a social media fanatic, a diehard AI aficionado, or a paranoid sceptic, it is impossible to escape the ubiquitous impact of Artificial Intelligence. AI is the brains bringing together quantum computing, nanotechnology, medical technology, brain-machine interface, robotics, aerospace, 5G, Internet of Things, and more. On the one hand it is amplifying human ingenuity. But at the same time AI is disrupting the foundations of healthcare, military, entertainment, education, marketing and manufacturing.

This course provides an overview of the key issues discussed in the book Artificial Intelligence and The Future of Power.

The book shows how an AI-driven revolution will have an unequal impact on different segments of humanity. After analyzing society’s vulnerabilities to the impending tsunami, the book raises troubling questions that provoke immediate debate: Is the world headed toward digital colonization by USA and China? Will depopulation become eventually unavoidable? The book is a wakeup call to action, compelling readers to be better informed and more engaged about the issues at stake. It educates the social segments most at risk and wants them to demand a seat at the table where policies on Artificial Intelligence are being formulated.

Artificial Intelligence is like the proverbial iceberg, only partially visible. To understand it fully, we must look beneath the surface, and this course does just that.
