The Second Machine Age: Work, Progress, and Prosperity in a Time of Brilliant Technologies book
4 mentions · across 3 shows
The Second Machine Age: Work, Progress, and Prosperity in a Time of Brilliant Technologies is a 2014 book by Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee that is a continuation of their book Race Against the Machine. They argue that the Second Machine Age is an era where machines can automate or augment cognitive tasks that previously only humans could do. They contrast this with what they call the "First Machine Age", or Industrial Revolution, when machines did the same for physical tasks. Continuing the theme of their earlier book, they advise people to "race with the machine, not against it", that is to seek to have machines become complements, not substitutes for humans.
