Acerca de esta escucha

As we approach a great turning point in history when technology is poised to redefine what it means to be human, The Fourth Age offers fascinating insight into AI, robotics, and their extraordinary implications for our species.

In The Fourth Age, Byron Reese makes the case that technology has reshaped humanity just three times in history:

100,000 years ago we harnessed fire, which led to language.

10,000 years ago we developed agriculture, which led to cities and warfare.

5,000 years ago we invented the wheel and writing, which led to the nation state.

We are now on the doorstep of a fourth change brought about by two technologies: AI and robotics. The Fourth Age provides extraordinary background information on how we got to this point and how - rather than what - we should think about the topics we’ll soon all be facing: machine consciousness, automation, employment, creative computers, radical life extension, artificial life, AI ethics, the future of warfare, superintelligence, and the implications of extreme prosperity.

By asking questions like “are you a machine?” and “could a computer feel anything?”, Reese leads you through a discussion along the cutting edge in robotics and AI and provides a framework by which we can all understand, discuss, and act on the issues of the Fourth Age and how they’ll transform humanity.

New perspectives and lot of future possibilities

Very thought provoking! This is a masterpiece from Byron. Gives a whole lot of new perspective to human life, human goals and purpose , human evolution. This tells us how AI and robotics has potential to change trajectory of human civilization for ever. Best read for someone who want to understand AI potential in a non technical way. The downside of AGI highlighted as a likelihood can send chill down your spine. Book is filled with a lot of meaningful information.

Your beliefs of AI and society discussed here

Whether you believe that AI is benevolent or malevolent, you're probably wrong. This book provides an introspective framework to expose your biases, challenge your assumptions, and help you understand your current position on AI compared to the positions of other AI luminaries.

Awesome insights and summaries of our potential.

This book is chock-full of food for thought. you almost have to stop the book every 5 minutes to think about what was just said. you could even listen to this book was someone else and getting many topics to discuss in more detail. this book has a high re-listen value. I'm sure there were some topics that I missed while thinking of one's prior to. great stuff

Interesting Topic

Mostly well done but somewhat lacking in details. Takes some time to adjusted to the narrator, although all told fairly acceptable listening to it.

A Big History Story of AI

What did you love best about The Fourth Age?

I am about a 3rd of the way through the book. I really like how the book gives a perspective of big history and tells a 100,000 year history of AI. I have read a number of AI books and this book complements those books very well.

Well researched and unbiased

There is a lot of information but the book is packed full of interesting research that assists in clarifying some of the thinking. The author presents multiple alternative views so this book is not about him trying to push his view.
