An important book showcasing the work we collectively need to do BEFORE the fact. I honestly do not know whether he says everything which needs to be said, but he has clearly thought it through and done a good deal of exploring, consulting, conversing ,collaborating.

We are basically told that the newly developed human-level AI will soon engineer itself (don't ask exactly how) to be so smart that it can do stuff we can't even begin to comprehend (don't ask how we can know this), so there's really no point in trying to think about it in much detail.
