How will AI change our world within twenty years? A pioneering technologist and acclaimed writer team up for a “dazzling” (The New York Times) look at the future that “brims with intriguing insights” (Financial Times). This edition includes a new foreword by Kai-Fu Lee. A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Financial Times Long before the advent of ChatGPT, Kai-Fu Lee and Chen Qiufan understood the enormous potential of artificial intelligence to transform our daily lives. But even as the world wakes up to the power of AI, many of us still fail to grasp the big picture. Chatbots and large language models are only the beginning. In this “inspired collaboration” (The Wall Street Journal), Lee and Chen join forces to imagine our world in 2041 and how it will be shaped by AI. In ten gripping, globe-spanning short stories and accompanying commentary, their book introduces readers to an array of eye-opening settings and characters grappling with the new abundance and potential harms of AI technologies like deep learning, mixed reality, robotics, artificial general intelligence, and autonomous weapons.

A WALL STREET JOURNAL, WASHINGTON POST, AND FINANCIAL TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR*Now with a new foreword on ChatGPT*_____________How will artificial intelligence change our world within twenty years?AI will be the defining development of the twenty-first century. Within two decades, aspects of daily human life will be unrecognizable.

However, AI will also challenge the organizing principles of our economic and social order and bring new risks in the form of autonomous weapons and smart technology that inherits human bias. AI is at a tipping point, and people need to wake up-both to AI's radiant pathways and its existential perils for life as we know it.In this provocative, utterly original work of "scientific fiction," Kai-Fu Lee, the former president of Google China and bestselling author of AI Superpowers, joins forces with celebrated novelist Chen Qiufan to imagine our AI world in 2041 in ten gripping short stories.Gazing toward a not-so-distant horizon, AI 2041 offers urgent insights into our collective future and reminds us that we are the authors of our own destiny.

A Guardian Science Fiction Book of the Year. Mimi is drowning in the world's trash. She's a 'waste girl', a scavenger picking through towering heaps of hazardous electronic detritus. Along with thousands of other migrant workers, she was lured to Silicon Isle, off the southern coast of China, by the promise of steady work and a better life. But Silicon Isle is where the rotten fruits of capitalism and consumer culture come to their toxic end. The land is hopelessly polluted, the workers utterly at the mercy of those in power. And now a storm is gathering, as ruthless local gangs skirmish for control, eco-terrorists conspire, investors hunger for profit, and a Chinese-American interpreter searches for his roots. As these forces collide, conflict erupts – a war between rich and poor, a battle between past and future. Mimi must decide if she will remain a pawn... or change the rules of the game altogether. 'An accomplished eco-techno-thriller with heart and soul' DAVID MITCHELL. 'Waste Tide is a work of spoiled and toxic beauty... It's more than a timely eco-thriller; it's a dark mirror held up to our selves' SIMON INGS.

MAAILMA ON RAUNIOINA. OLETKO PELAAJA VAI PELINAPPULA?

Mimi on jätteenkäsittelijä. Lupaukset työstä ja paremmasta elämästä ovat houkutelleet hänet ja lukemattomat muut köyhät Kiinan etelärannikolle Piisaarelle, missä työläisten tehtävä on purkaa ja lajitella myrkyllistä elektroniikkajätettä.

Piisaari on kuitenkin lohduttoman saastunut ja jätteenkäsittelijät pahasti valtaapitävien ikeen alla. Myrsky nousee, kun paikalliset valtaklaanit, ekoterroristit ja ahneet monikansalliset yhtiöt kamppailevat rahasta ja vallasta.

Kilpailevien voimien yhteentörmäys antaa kipinän sodalle, jossa vastakkain ovat köyhät ja rikkaat, mennyt ja tuleva. Mimin on tehtävä valinta: tyytyykö hän sodassa pelinappulan rooliin, vai määritteleekö hän uudet pelisäännöt itse.

Chen Qiufan (myös Stanley Chan) on palkittu kiinalainen tieteiskirjailija. Vuonna 2013 julkaistu Jättömaa on hänen esikoisromaaninsa.
