Dangerous with AI
Master the Tools Before They Master You
Antonio Pagano with Claudio (AI) · Foreword by Jamal Madni
AI will amplify your creativity, judgment and ambition. It can amplify your mistakes just as quickly.
Dangerous with AI is for professionals who want the advantage without surrendering judgment: people ready to work with intelligent machines while staying unmistakably human. No programming required, and no brittle list of fashionable tools. It offers a durable way of thinking, building and leading with AI.
The book is written in two voices. Antonio pushes when Claudio, the book's fictional AI narrator, gets too dark. Claudio pushes when Antonio gets too comfortable. The friction is the point.
