Robot-Proof is a book about people, exploring what it means to be human in an increasingly automated world. This book presents, then answers, pressing questions that readers may or may not have thought to themselves, such as: What predicts long-term life outcomes across millions of little kids? Why is the Informational-Exploration Paradox the most terrifying phenomenon you’ve never heard of? What predicts the smartest team and how will AI change it? Why are ill-posed problems the future work, education, and a robot-proof humanity? With poignant insight and delicate care to keep us grounded in the human perspective, Robot-Proof is an entertaining and thought-provoking read for all individuals seeking to understand the next steps in a new and completely unprecedented world.
