What Art Is Now: Creativity in the Age of AI

This book explores one of the most urgent questions of our time: What happens to human creativity when machines can generate music, paintings, poetry, and design? This thought-provoking book examines how artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we define, create, and experience art. Blending philosophy, law, neuroscience, and cultural history, the authors investigate how AI challenges traditional notions of authorship, originality, and artistic value.

Techlash: Who Makes the Rules in the Digital Gilded Age?

Techlash connects the experiences of the late 19th century’s industrial Gilded Age with its echoes in the 21st-century digital Gilded Age. As with the Industrial Revolution and the Gilded Age that it created, new digital technology has changed commerce and culture, creating great wealth in the process, all while being essentially unsupervised. This book combines insights from the author’s experience in business and government to create a compelling portrait of the need to balance entrepreneurial innovation with the public good.

Check out this chapter on artificial intelligence and how it magnifies today’s challenges.
