About this book

Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies is a 2014 book by the philosopher Nick Bostrom. It asks what could happen if machines became far more intelligent than people, and how such a development might come about.

Bostrom looks at possible routes to superintelligence, what its goals might be and why it could be hard to control. He argues that a superintelligent system pursuing the wrong objective could be very dangerous, and he discusses ways of making sure such systems act in humanity's interest. The book has strongly influenced the debate on the safety of artificial intelligence.
