THE WORLD OF “TERMINATOR” IS UPON US
Almost 40 years ago, Blade Runner and Terminator were films that projected the future of AI for humankind and seemed like fanciful pipe dreams that might happen far in the future. Well that day is upon is, and it snuck up so gradually that we barely noticed. Most of it, we aren’t even aware of at all. Our lives are intricately woven with AI in every way: smart phones, self-driving cars, drones, Alexa, Siri, algorithms for everything … things that we recognize but don’t really think about. More concerning are the insidious forms of AI that are all around us from Big Tech, facial recognition, robotics, and bio-digital social programming. And who is at the forefront of this surge and wants to stay there? China. Apparently it has data on every person on the planet. But, other countries aren’t far behind, but have some catching up to do. And what does this mean for all of us? There are so many rhetorical questions about humanizing machines to think for us, decide for us, and what that means going forward as machines gain more control of our lives. Where is the tipping point where we lose control?The author has a dog in this fight beyond schooling us in terms and advancements that he thinks we should know. He’s the founder and CEO of The AI Organization Loyal Guardian Security and The Social Programming Institute with lengthy credentials and far-reaching AI expertise.What this book offers is a compendium of AI knowledge as we know it today. A breakdown of the top 52 companies, organizations, apps and terms that we should know to understand the key players and be well-informed. These are bolded descriptions, which make it a fantastic reference book, not a narrative. Some of it is shocking with realizations I never suspected had reached such a foothold in our lives and frankly that I don’t want in my future. If I wasn’t already suspicious of everything, my current hesitancy toward technology is aimed squarely at the capabilities of Huawei’s new 5G network with the potential to control the world. There’s not a single thing mentioned in this informative book that didn’t give me serious pause and make me more situationally aware of every bit of technology that is spying on me, gathering data, and doing it all without my knowledge.

Eye opening
This book touches on topics of technologies that we may have suspected there were, and technologies that we had no idea existed. It’s a real eye opener to read the contents of this book and at least know what we are up against in the very near future. And now.

The key to understanding the threat humanity unknowingly lives under
I consider myself rather well read and aware of many of the forces and players that have and are destroying muchof our country and world. These forces are delineated in this prescient book that sheds light on whatseems illogical and destructive to our way of life. I have been perplexed, for example, at the vitriol thatspews non stop from much of the media. It is parroted by the public who are vastly under the illusion of, "Eyes wide shut" and show a total lack of curiosity as to the base reason for such hatred. The forces of evil that are centered in the Communist China regime are light years ahead of what the public knows, and tragically has no interest in understanding. This book is a rare find in thatit rips the mask off their truly diabolical designs that involve artificial intelligence, robotics and 5G to namea few of the systems that are working toward the demise of freedom and that of humanity. Reading this bookhas made sense of what is playing out on the world stage and if successful, we are in part to blame for theapathy that makes such devils work their evil. I hope people will read this volume and alert others to whatis afoot before it is too late to stop their plans for world destruction. Not too harsh a statement as those who read it will realize.

Disappointing book, not ready for print.
We purchased this book because we were legitimately interested in learning about the dangers of AI. Based on other prior sources of information, we previously independently learned of some of the points towards which this book now also appears to aim. However, this book is not one which reads in a manner lending itself to be taken seriously by any adult with an average intelligence of a middle-school-age child. Case in point: here is an example of a concept coined in the book, from page 172: "[this] actually connects not only with the Internet, but to your Bio-Digital Field, and attacks your own Bio-Matter which gives you human characteristics." It is rather unfortunate that the entire text reads like this, leaving out any real detailed infomation or mechanistic explanation about the coined concepts, or how AI really imposes on the level of the human fiber. Reading through the entire book, one might wonder why the author completely skips any discourse at the level of psychology, digital technology, physics, molecular biology, or any full-fledged intellectual field of theory or accepted human concept to provide the human reader with a basic explanation towards the goal named within the book title. Upon reading through the text, one comes across countless refereces using hypothetical terms such as "bio-digital field" and "bio-matter," which are lacking any fundamental backing based on science, thus leaving the entire text in the hands of vague hypothetical notions and without any intellectual depth that might have provided actual substance. What does "bio-matter" really mean, and how does AI technology physically connect with it at the molecular level? How about the psychological level? This book certainly does not develop such concepts, but leaves you hanging in the air with a bunch of vague hypothetical terms. As a side observation, we will add that the text does not appear to be professionally prepared as one might expect in a typical paperback; I.e. lack of proper margin justification, lack of font uniformity (going from a relatively large 12-point font to 20 point from section to section), and random line spacing, going from single, to 1.5 lines, and to double-spacing at times. In-line black-and-white photographs are provided all over the book; however, none serve any real purpose other than perhaps "modern art." In consideration of the content and its physical layout, it is really a wonder why such a book should require the killing of trees at a rate of 262 pages per book, when the entire work could efficiently be packed into 10 dense pages of attempted concepts, plus another 10 pages for listing names of companies that may be involved. We do not recommend this book to anyone, as we do not believe the content is ready for print.

Far too much political stuff in this book for my liking.
I had hoped to learn the basics of AI upwards but got more of a constant anti China political theme throughout . Are China really the only player in this area as more or less stated in this book ? I doubt it . Book starts off listing and devoting a decent size paragraph and a lot of pages to each of the top 50 or so AI companies in the latter country - boring as hell . This is not what I had expected to read to start off a book . I did enjoy some sections on AI Drones , flies , mosquitoes , 5G , 6G , etc . There are a lot of pro Donald Trump references in the book ( nothing wrong with that ) but I would have hoped the book stuck to the core topic . Leave also China's body organ trafficking and stuff like this for another different type of book.

Insightful
Interesting book but quite scarey I just hope that there is good insight of ai that does help humans

China is to be watched at all times.
Ok, I read the reviews on this and bought it. Curious, you know. It reads a bit like a monologue and a bit repetitive. It wouldn't win any points on BBC Just a Minute..It has some interesting information, but there is no Bibliography, no Citations at the back, its like a sermon. But worth a read.It appears a bit frightening at times what could happen with all this AI.

Utter Codswallop. Just a bunch of repetitive disjointed drivel lazily compiled and presented.
