(Really, 3.5 stars). This is an acceptable overview of a lot of technological changes, primarily centered around AI and Machine Learning, and how they will affect economics. I didn't learn anything new from this, but also didn't find it wrong in any glaring ways, so it's probably a decent basic to intermediate introduction to the topic. Chace is a good writer and the writing is clear, arguments presented well, and it doesn't presuppose too much knowledge on the part of the reader.

Well-written intro to AI. Speculative by necessity, it still raises big questions. Kudos to Mr Chace for writing a book for the general reader. Superintelligence being "our final invention", this subject is way too important to be left to the tech geeks!
