The Coming Wave
by Mustafa Suleyman
“I sensed a wise caution… appropriately placing concepts in historical context.” An insightful look at the double-edged nature of AI, balancing the hype with lessons from the Printing Press and Industrial Revolution.
Review Assessment
The Core Theme: A Double-Edged Sword
Technology can be directed for the “good of the world.” The author maintains an optimistic tone, suggesting that with the right guidance, society can harness these trends beneficially.
The “Wave” brings risks. The book outlines the dangers of uncontained power but does so without becoming alarmist, keeping the reader “intelligent and insightful” rather than fearful.
Final Verdict
“Very informative for anyone in the business world who wishes to understand the ways in which technology trends interact with society.”
