The coauthors of the seminal book The Virtual Corporation describe how the rise of artificial intelligence and virtual environments are ushering in an epic cultural transformation - and how we can thrive in this new era.
We are at the dawn of the Autonomous Revolution, a turning point in human history as decisive as the Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions. More and more, AI-based machines are replacing human beings, and online environments are gathering our data and using it to manipulate us. This loss of human autonomy amounts to nothing less than a societal phase change, a fundamental paradigm shift. The same institutions will remain - schools, banks, churches, and corporations - but they will radically change form, obey new rules, and use new tools.
William H. Davidow and Michael S. Malone go deeply into the enormous implications of these developments. They show why increases in productivity no longer translate into increases in the GDP and how zero cost, one-to-many communications have been turned into tools for cybercrime and propaganda. Many of the book’s recommendations - such as using taxes to control irresponsible internet behavior and enabling people to put their data into what are essentially virtual personal information “safety deposit boxes” - are bold and visionary, but we must figure out how we will deal with these emerging challenges now, before the Autonomous Revolution overcomes us.

“Reclaiming the Future We’ve Sold to Machines”?
Hyperbole much? Sounds like something from the book of Ludditicus
Nevertheless, it gets reasonable reviews on AMZ, so may be worth the read?

oh, and thank you zbatman, you prolific poster.

You’re welcome ;)
I have no idea if the book is any good or not. It was recommended by a youtuber I follow and I decided to get it. I don’t know when/if I’ll get to it since my TBR is huge, but maybe some people here are interested so I’ve uploaded it. :p

I’m equally opposed to fanciful hyperbole; consequently, I think it’s past time for a Butlerian Jihad. Ladies & gentlemen should not be replaced! (Slogan Trademark ®)

Nah. The machines are more than welcome to it.

The machines may pursue us (terminator fashion) for a full refund. We need to think this metaphor through!
