Don't Panic

Discover how to adapt, adopt, and thrive in an AI-anxious era, written by the man with the compass for our maze

Expecting the apocalypse around the corner? This book is your playbook to surviving the rise of machine learning.

71% of workers are anxious about AI. The good news: the machines still need you, and you can make them work for you. Don't Panic cuts through the noise, showing you exactly how this technology works and where it fails.

Instead of focusing on technical skills or abstract predictions, author Nate B. Jones ("AI Nate") begins with the emotional reality behind AI anxiety, drawing on his 20-years experience in the tech industry. He's garnered trust from more than 1 million people to help them stay relevant in a rapidly changing technological landscape.

AI might have a planet-sized brain, but just like Marvin the Android from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Planet, it’s permanently stuck at factory settings. It can’t learn, it can’t adapt, and it can’t gain wisdom. This book reveals why AI's permanent blind spots make human judgment more valuable today than ever before.

Worry less, and start owning your future.
