Codependent. Life in the Shadow of Artificial Intelligence

Whether we like it or not, artificial intelligence is already everywhere – in industrial manufacturing, scientific research, e-commerce, medical diagnostics, linguistics, art… It automates routine tasks, increases productivity, stimulates innovation… All true.
