Theme: Social science / human concerns of AI
Former Princeton scholars Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor detonate the hype machine of Silicon Valley’s AI claims with forensic precision. Their book dissects “ethical AI” and “explainability” as marketing myths propping up power and profit. It’s the exposé tech leaders quietly wish you’d ignore.
