Mo Gawdat (Part 1) - My New Book, Scary Smart, and the Most Important Message of Our Time

By Mo Gawdat

In this special, two-part episode, I  want to talk to you about my new book, Scary Smart, releasing September 30, 2021. I know the title of this episode sounds dramatic, but I&aposm not exaggerating. This episode may scare you because the stakes may be existential, but I promise there&aposs hope.

You may be wondering about the connection between Solve for Happy, One Billion Happy, and...Artificial Intelligence? I promise it will all make sense soon.

And by the way - If you pre-order your copy before September 30th, which I hope you do as it&aposs a great help for authors, send a screenshot or forward your proof of purchase to win@mogawdat.com. You&aposll be entered for a chance to win a signed, early release limited-edition copy of the book. Better yet, I will take a few winners out to dinner in London and Amsterdam. Hope to see you!

Pre-order Scary Smart here at Amazon UK. Check your local Amazon or other bookstore in other regions.

In Part 1, listen as I discuss:

Why you&aposre the hero of this story.The importance of pre-orders for an author.Why my publishers decided to publish Scary Smart before my next book.Why sci-fi is now sci-fact.The three inevitabilities of AI.A brief history of AI and what&aposs driving its development.What is the singularity?How can things go wrong?
