Generative AI Threats To A Civilization: Correcting the Course of Large-Language-Model Automation

The Artificial Intelligence industry has been relentlessly releasing products that have seemingly overtaken society like a sudden storm, sparing no corner of human activity. Generative AI has garnered as many advocates as opponents, as the many governments of the world are vying for a leading position in the AI space, amidst a pressing competitive race for dominance.

This book offers the most comprehensive approach yet to the introduction of AI in society. Recognizing its overarching polymathic feature, the author firstly places this IT knowledge product in the context of a novel Theory of Knowledge, and subsequently addresses the stormy question of how much sentience genAI chatbots and peers may exhibit.  The author further exposes the long list of problematic outcomes thus far caused by the technology at many different socioeconomic and institutional orders,  and for which a significant number of lawsuits have been facing the industry. For all those reasons, while one may benefit from putting the technology at work in one setting or another, it always begs the discussion of how much of a fallout to expect from its application and what mitigation looks like.

Further, the ethical questions arising from the development and use of genAI are central to this exposition. It puts forth in great details a panoply of recommendations to be reflected in official regulation of the technology in order to provide a solid guardrail for public safety and for the industry's own sake. The author finally offers a view of the evolution of education and professions in the new Omniscience landscape opened by generative AI. Take this book as one flashlight that helps illuminate all around the shady, quite unpredictable and disruptive AI road ahead and to stay clear of pitfalls.

A highly comprehensive resource for professionals, business owners, academics and students to keep at hand. Peer-reviewed and profusely recommended.
