In comparing artificial intelligence and human intelligence, the book argues that the concept of artificial intelligence is flawed because the term \"intelligence\" is misunderstood; it lacks the biological component of natural human intelligence. Therefore, the claims about superintelligence are exaggerated and confusing.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOf course, both generative artificial intelligence and artificial general intelligence are disrupting technologies, just as smartphones have been. However, jumping from that to the idea that GAI or AGI (superintelligence) will solve all or most human problems or destroy humanity is disproportionate and without solid evidence. The book serves as a testament to the growth of AI and related technologies, highlighting a trend in technological fusion that has been evident in digitalization over the last twenty years. It concludes with three chapters examining the future of humanity, not from a futuristic science fiction perspective, but rather through an analysis of trends in the lives of individuals in education, employment, and everyday life.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAlthough the book, on the one hand, rejects both the promising and catastrophic views of humanity with AI, and on the second, clarifies the real role of AI --a teacher or pretender-- it also highlights the enormous opportunities for all of us, much like other disruptive technologies have brought benefits to humanity in the past, as long as we use it properly. In a nutshell, the book aims to make sense of artificial intelligence for all of us in everyday life; proposing a balanced view of where we stand in the face of this new technological disruption.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eBiography\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAuthor(s):\u003c\/span\u003e \n\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDr. Eduardo Andere is a visiting scholar at Boston College and is based in Mexico.
