The Nightmare: A Story by AI

The second half of our interview with author and strategist P.W. Singer. He discusses his latest book - Burn In - where he translates real-world research about Artificial Intelligence into a glimpse at a future we’re not too far away from if things go wrong and we do not protect ourselves. "In our lifetime for the next year 10 or 20 years, artificial intelligence is not about a rebellion of the robots (a-la the Terminator). It's industrial revolution. It's a rewiring of business, military, the economy, our society with AI and automation in all its various forms...In these scenarios, AI is not just about prediction, it's also about influence."
