Before we can answer the challenges posed by Artificial Intelligence, we must answer the question: "What is intelligence"? With this as his starting point, Norway's best-known investigative journalist approaches one of the most important and mythical phenomena of our time. Vassnes shows how real intelligence - like real creativity - is deeply connected to the human, and cannot be reproduced or replaced by computers. As always, the author links a number of subject areas, art and history in a book that is as well written as it is thought-provoking about one of the most important topics of our time.
