Why has median income stopped rising in the US?
Why is the share of population that is working falling so rapidly?
Why are our economy and society are becoming more unequal?
A popular explanation right now is that the root cause underlying these symptoms is technological stagnation-- a slowdown in the kinds of ideas and inventions that bring progress and prosperity.
In Race Against the Machine, MIT's Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee present a very different explanation. Drawing on research by their team at the Center for Digital Business, they show that there's been no stagnation in technology -- in fact, the digital revolution is accelerating. Recent advances are the stuff of science fiction: computers now drive cars in traffic, translate between human languages effectively, and beat the best human Jeopardy! players.
As these examples show, digital technologies are rapidly encroaching on skills that used to belong to humans alone. This phenomenon is both broad and deep, and has profound economic implications. Many of these implications are positive; digital innovation increases productivity, reduces prices (sometimes to zero), and grows the overall economic pie.
But digital innovation has also changed how the economic pie is distributed, and here the news is not good for the median worker. As technology races ahead, it can leave many people behind. Workers whose skills have been mastered by computers have less to offer the job market, and see their wages and prospects shrink. Entrepreneurial business models, new organizational structures and different institutions are needed to ensure that the average worker is not left behind by cutting-edge machines.
In Race Against the Machine Brynjolfsson and McAfee bring together a range of statistics, examples, and arguments to show that technological progress is accelerating, and that this trend has deep consequences for skills, wages, and jobs. The book makes the case that employment prospects are grim for many today not because there's been technology has stagnated, but instead because we humans and our organizations aren't keeping up.

立論有力,分析簡潔。一句話總結how human win the race against machine:數學公式 n!>2^n,即combinatorial explosion outgrows exponential trend, eg. Moore's Law.
評分中文版字節社即將有售。和科技相關度不高,主要闡述人工智能對經濟社會的影響,以及企業應對這場競賽的方法。再有就是,四萬字闡明一個觀點足夠。
評分著眼點其實很有趣, 但是具體分析和論述感覺就是大雜燴, 最後的Conclusion也比較草率, 不過寫的生動有趣也值得加分吧~
評分新的思路
評分讀完中譯本,算是對之前所瞭解很好的一些補充
花了半天时间就读了这一本书,其实也就算是个小册子吧,内容不多,但是观点很有趣。 作者认为我们目前正出于摩尔定律的指数增长阶段,互联网时代带来的技术革命是比蒸汽机和电力革命更有破坏力的一场革命。 而由于整个时代技术的革新所造成的简单工作不断被成本更低的计算机...
評分似乎我们所接触的所有信息都很自信得告诉我们,科技带给我们的一定是利好的信息,人类一定会在技术的帮助下,朝着光明的未来奔去。 没看这本书前,我也已经有了近乎完全一样的观点,我的观点可能比本书所论的,“技术发展或许将会带来失业等问题”的观点更大胆和悲观一些。即...

評分中国人强调勤劳,因为在农耕社会,只有黄牛犁地,或者锄禾日当午,效率低下。勤劳的意思是多干几个小时,收入可以多些。 现在很多行业其实要work smarter 而不是work harder。 多数脑力劳动,灵感很重要,没有想出办法,坐在办公室里一天也没有成效。 如果需要做重复简单的劳...
評分充斥在市面上的大量Geek文化,由于网络平台而扩散到日常生活中。曾几何时,你本来学国画的朋友开始追捧电子产品,高中数学徘徊及格线的老同桌也力推IT文化,更别提隔壁中专毕业的吴老二老跑新华书店买书自学逻辑电路了。“技术宅拯救世界”这样的流行语只是对信息技术崇拜的一...
