About me
Let’s answer the question, “How do we robot-proof our kids, ourselves, and our society?”
Robot-Proof is a book about people. We are the complex, flawed central characters in this story. In it, we will explore what it means to be human in an increasingly automated world. We need to understand the ugly and the amazing of how real people, companies, and societies will respond to the changes that are already taking hold. This story is much less about how AI will change our world and much more about how we can drive those changes toward a human-centered future.
