About this book
How to Control AI: Changing Our Trajectory and Democratizing Technology
Jack Wedam started programming and coding computers in the 1970s. He has a patent on a computer device. And he has published two books on the societal dangers of Google Glasses and smartphones. So when he cautions against something technological…readers may want to listen.
How to Control AI: Changing Our Trajectory and Democratizing Technology is written with a computer insider's brain but in easy-to-understand language that readers at all levels of tech literacy can understand. To that end, because everyone loves a good spoiler, here's the twist in How to Control AI:

Who controls AI presents the most significant danger. Control of AI must be democratized. Within these pages, Wedam offers out-of-the-box and innovative but also doable and effective ways to accomplish this.
