But in his provocative new book, Dr. Kai-Fu Leeamp;mdash;one of the world's most respected experts on AIamp;mdash;reveals that China has suddenly caught up to the US at an astonishingly rapid pace. As the US-Sino competition begins to heat up, Lee envisions China and the US forming a powerful duopoly in AI, but one that is based on each nation's unique and traditional cultural inclinations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilding upon his long standing US-Sino technology career (working at Apple, Microsoft and Google) and his much-heralded \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e Op-Ed from June 2017, Dr. Lee predicts that Chinese and American AI will have a stunning impact on not just traditional blue-collar industries but will also have a devastating effect on white-collar professions. Is the concept of universal basic income the solution? In Dr. Lee's opinion, probably not. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eAI Superpowers\u003c\/i\u003e, he outlines how millions of suddenly displaced workers must find new ways to make their lives meaningful, and how government policies will have to deal with the unprecedented inequality between the \"haves\" and the \"have-nots.\" Even worse, Lee says the transformation to AI is already happening all around us, whether we are aware of it or not.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Leeamp;mdash;a native of China but educated in Americaamp;mdash;argues powerfully that these unprecedented developments will happen much sooner than we think. He cautions us about the truly dramatic upheaval that AI will unleash and how we need to start thinking now on how to address these profound changes that are coming to our world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brilliance Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47106148335856,"sku":"2940172639180","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940172639180_p0.jpg?v=1763843079","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940172639180","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
