According to an article by Cade Metz in The New York Times , "Researchers say computer systems are learning from lots and lots of digitized books and news articles that could bake old attitudes into new technology."
Oxford University professor Nick Bostrom argues that if machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.
MIT professor Max Tegmark describes and illuminates the recent, ground-breaking advances in Artificial Intelligence and how it might overtake human intelligence.
As Oxford University economist Daniel Susskind points out, technological progress could bring about unprecedented prosperity, solving one of humanity's oldest how to make sure that everyone has enough to live on.
Distinguished AI researcher and professor of computer science at UC Berkeley , Russell Stuart suggests that we can rebuild AI on a new foundation, according to which machines are designed to be inherently uncertain about the human preferences they are required to satisfy.
Industry experts claim that AI will have a negative impact on blue-collar jobs, but Mert predicts that Americans and Europeans will experience a strong impact on white-collar jobs as well. And Mert also provides research results and a clear description of which jobs will be affected and how soon, which jobs could be enhanced with AI. Analytics of Life also provides solutions and insight into some of the most profound changes to come in human history.

Mert Damlapinar presents a short treatise on Data Analytics, Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence. He describes the present scenario and has compiled the opinions of several experts, in order to bring to the reader's horizon, a glimpse of several possibilities of the future. Though it seems like we are quite some time away from General Artificial Intelligence, the author makes a strong case for analyzing inherent flaws in our way of thinking before we embark on such high ambitions. If the creator is flawed, you can't expect the creation to be benign. The author makes his opinions clear on certain political matters and this might ruffle feathers of some people. The author has outlined the effects of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data on industries. He has delved mildly into some technical aspects as well. Overall, a good primer for people unaware of these fields.

Insightful
As an auditor, I find that data analytics and the current software to conduct the analysis still in it’s infancy. It will be interesting to see how AI May improve these processes. The book is insightful and a must read for those who are curious on where the industry is going.

Changing times
Whether you agree with the direction and impact of AI technologies, they can’t be ignored. We will see continued change in our daily lives that is a direct result of the advancement of technology. And, that change will be significant in the next few years. Great non-technical read on an important topic.

The book can be considered as a sales brochure for implementation data analytics and technology behind it as the author seems really keen that everyone of us should really see the benefits of DA.
I don't disagree, but I picked this book thinking it will help me understand the subject and not to be sold on the subject.
One may have appreciated the author's enthusiasm for the technology had it not been for the obvious sales pitch in every chapter.
