Kevin Scott
Reprogramming the American Dream
From Rural America to Silicon Valley – Making AI Serve Us All
HarperBusiness, 2020
What's inside?
A Microsoft executive presents a comprehensive overview of AI for rural Americans, policy makers and IT/AI executives.
Recommendation
This book by Microsoft’s chief technology officer Kevin Scott offers his inside knowledge of the latest advances in AI. That, plus his rural upbringing, fuel his unique view on the AI revolution. Scott unabashedly champions AI –and his firm’s role in it – and its potential to help solve the “digital divide” between the rural and urban United States, and perhaps reduce political partisanship, too. While Scott presents a balanced view of a better future, it’s one, however, that might disproportionately benefit existing power centers – unless developers, investors, governments and citizens work to make AI accessible to all.
