THE HANDOVER - DAVID RUNCIMAN GEBUNDEN

'The Singularity' is what Silicon Valley calls the idea that  eventually  we will be overrun by
machines that are able to take decisions and act for themselves. What no one says is that it
happened before.    A few hundred years ago  humans started building the robots that now rule
our world. They are called states and corporations: immensely powerful artificial entities 
with capacities that go far beyond what any individual can do  and which  unlike us  need never
die.   They have made us richer  safer and healthier than would have seemed possible even a few
generations ago - and they may yet destroy us. The Handover distils over three hundred years of
thinking about how to live with artificial agency.
