SUMMARY:WiCyS San Diego Affiliate | Book Club
DESCRIPTION:The Book that will be featured is: Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman’s OpenAI \nKaren Hao started out trusting OpenAI’s mission\, but her reporting led her to a darker conclusion. Building powerful AI demands staggering resources\, from rare computing power and energy to exploited data laborers in the Global South\, leaving only a few giant companies able to compete at all. With Microsoft’s backing\, OpenAI has pushed forward at full speed without a clear destination\, even as Hao got close enough to the story to chronicle Altman’s ouster and return in full detail. \nHer book argues that the pressure of this race warps the judgment of everyone caught in it\, since people rarely see themselves as the villain. Drawing on voices from Silicon Valley to Kenyan data workers to Chilean water activists\, Empire of AI lays out both the scale of the industry’s ambition and the human cost behind it. \nLearn more and register HERE
