Praise for Artificially Intelligent
"Finally, an AI book that informs and inspired, rather than intimidates. Eliot lays out in compelling fashion why all of us, and not just technologists, have a role in shaping the future of AI. Highly accessible, timely, and democratic."
— Jennifer Ewbank, Former Deputy Director of CIA for Digital Innovation
"This engaging and hopeful book offers a culturally and historically rich account of AI's human foundations, weaving distant episodes into a cohesive narrative that remains insightful even to well-informed readers. With keen sensitivity to social impolications, it illuminates how AI is profoundly reshaping society."
— Zsuzsanna Szegedy-Maszak, Curator of Photography, Hungarian National Museum
