Description
"A thoughtful view of artificial intelligence and how it relates to being human . . . Those interested in technology, specifically AI, as well as educators and parents thinking about the future will be eager to read this book." —Booklist
A new era of artificial intelligence will transform human life forever. Discover what this means for our personal identity and our future.
AI tools are already reshaping the way we work and communicate, but as they gain autonomy, they will no longer be mere tools; they will become active participants in our world.
As our digital identities become smarter and more capable, we enter the age of “Identic” AI: a place where ever-present AI companions streamline daily tasks, enhance wellbeing, and offer lifelong learning. For professionals, these intelligent agents will amplify creativity, boost productivity, and expand human potential. But with this extraordinary promise comes profound risks—to individuals, businesses, and society itself.
From technology experts Joseph M. Bradley and Don Tapscott, You to the Power of Two is a thought-provoking and timely guide that will prepare readers to thrive in a world of personal AI agents by:
- Revealing how our new “digital sidekicks” will transform our careers, healthcare, education, and relationships
- Empowering readers to embrace AI with confidence and purpose rather than fear
- Exploring AI’s role in redefining human potential, success, and the institutions of society
- Explaining self-sovereign identity and decentralised AI models that will safeguard autonomy, control, and the future
Identic AI will reshape how we work, learn, and connect. Will we harness its power for a more equitable future, or will we let it shape us in ways we can’t control? The future isn’t written. It’s ours to create.
