Biography
Daniel Araya is a Senior Fellow with the Centre for International Governance Innovation and Senior Partner with the World Legal Summit.
Peter Marber is a noted author and scholar who currently teaches at Harvard University and Johns Hopkins’ Carey Business School.
"In Augmented Education in the Global Age, Daniel Araya and Peter Marber chronicle AI's astonishing disruption of social life. They shine a much needed light on AI's tectonic impact on how we work, which will, in turn, have a significant effect on how we learn. The volume is an extended interrogation, filled with vital questions concerning a future where augmented intellect is a reality with which we will need to be reconciled. With an extraordinarily diverse range of contributors, the volume explores not only how humans and new technologies will collaborate more closely in the coming years, but also what those collaborations will portend for industry, power, and what it means to be human."
- Dr. Christopher Ankersen, NYU Center for Global Affairs.
"Araya and Marber have assembled a wide range of insights into the future of work and education amidst the rise of artificial intelligence --an obvious 'gray rhino' phenomenon heading straight at us and giving us a choice act wisely or not. This important compilation is a must read for anyone who cares about strategic planning that can both avert the economic and social risks that come with AI and harness its power for positive progress."
