It has often been said that Artificial Intelligence is the new electricity: a general-purpose technology destined to permeate all layers of society. But in a more powerful, impactful, and double-edged way. AI increases our daily well-being, contributes to solving humankind's greatest challenges, yet it presents a number of dangers, visible and hidden. There is still time to prepare, but there certainly is no time to waste. What can you do so that you and your children thrive in the age of Artificial Intelligence? You must first understand what AI really is, beyond the hype and the confusion. How can we make sense of a technology which questions us on the meaning of being human? How can we reconcile the fact that AI surpasses humans in many ways and yet, in many others, is less intelligent than a two-year old? Impressive as it is, Artificial Intelligence is neither magical nor supernatural - it's only a few lines of code. The author compares human and AI capabilities on the main human mental processes: memory, attention, perception, learning, reasoning, creativity, language, emotions, willpower and motor skills. Machines certainly don't work like humans. And it doesn't really matter: planes don't flap their wings, yet they fly extremely well.You must then understand the repercussions on the world of work. For of all the perils presented by Artificial Intelligence, the one posed on work is by far the greatest. Today, AI is technologically capable of performing half of all human tasks at work. By the end of the century, everything that humans can do, AI will also be able to do. Four scenarios stand out as to the possible evolution of society - and each one of these is mind-boggling. Long before that happens, current jobs will undergo a radical change at an unprecedented pace and magnitude. Which jobs will disappear? Which ones will stay? Following what patterns? What will the future of work look like? What are the guidelines for career choices that should be kept in mind right now? Finally, you must equip your children so that they are able to use AI, to advance it, to shield and differentiate themselves from it, and to design the world of tomorrow. To this end, the 21st Century Compass unveils and details the foundational knowledge, the essential cognitive and socio-emotional competencies and the key directions to master - and explains to you how to achieve it. A general public book for curious and demanding audiences, Duality offers a transverse, comprehensive and clear perspective on one of the highest stakes of humankind. This book puts you in the best conditions to prepare yourselves and your children for the extraordinary age of Artificial Intelligence
