The latest technological advancement driven by AI is silently shaking the foundations of a society. Before reading this book I used to think that AI is a boon for society but this thought has drastically changed after reading this book. The book explains how AI enabled advancement is disrupting current economic, political, geo- Political situations. However, the most significant part is the "Battle for India's future". Stress testing is now more important because " no other democracy faces the same level of internal and external existing threats. If society and government don't check the ever growing power of tech giants like google and facebook, we will be colonized. The book also raises the point of making data rights intellectual property of an individual far from that tech giants consider India as a testing ground for new gadgets or programmes. Rajiv ji has also exposed how social media's inherent phase is making it a powerful agency by giving its power to decide which ideology is better by boosting one ideological posts and banning or shadow tanning others' posts. "The motorization of masses" is a must read for every social media user. However, Rajiv ji has not offered solutions to any of the battlegrounds in this book, I am excited for his next book!!
