This book is a must-read for tweens and their parents, trying to navigate the brave new world of artificial intelligence. Matt uses every tool in his kit, including analogy, metaphor and story-telling, to simplify the ethical conundrums surrounding this constellation of technologies. He brings the subject to life with examples from the home to the classroom. The writing jumps off the page. Funny, clever and enlightening, this is the handbook we need to solve the problems posed by AI for the next generation. Equipping tweens with this information now will help them to identify and reduce bias, creating a more equitable future for all. Is My Phone Reading My Mind? should be compulsory reading in every school across the country."Tracey Spicer AM Journalist, broadcaster, and author of Man-Made: How the bias of the past is being built into the future
