The Eye of the Master

The Eye of the Master presents a social history of AI, challenging popular notions by emphasizing its origins in industrial factory spatial computation and collective behavior surveillance rather than biological mimicry. It argues that AI is fundamentally about automating labor and social relations, not achieving true intelligence or sentience. The audiobook advocates for a new understanding of AI, highlighting its basis in automation rather than mystery or consciousness. Narrated by Dennis Kleinman, the book offers insights for scientists, journalists, and activists alike.
