CRI Resource: The Human Advantage: The Future of American Work in an Age of Smart Machines

Description

Pop-culture pummels us with images of intelligent machines overtaking humans. Transhumanists believe that humans are merely machines and that artificial intelligence is the next step in our evolution. Philosopher Jay Richards dispels these dystopian tales and explains why we should be far more hopeful than fearful about our future on account of what he calls “the human advantage.” By dispelling myths about capitalism, greed, and upward mobility, Dr. Richards reveals how to rebuild a culture of virtue by capitalizing on the skills that are most uniquely human: creativity, resilience, and empathy for the needs of others.
