Human Compatible: Artificial Intelligence and the Problem of Control is a thought-provoking and accessible book that explores one of the most critical questions of our time: how can we ensure that advanced AI systems remain beneficial and aligned with human values?
In this groundbreaking work, renowned AI researcher Stuart Russell argues that our current approach to building intelligent machines must change. Rather than focusing solely on making AI more capable, we need to rethink how it is designed, placing human preferences, ethics, and uncertainty at the centre.
Blending technical insight with philosophical depth, Russell discusses the risks of autonomous systems, the limitations of current machine learning models, and the real-world challenges of AI alignment.
Clear, engaging, and urgent, Human Compatible is a must-read for anyone interested in AI safety, ethics, and the future of human–machine coexistence.
