A tectonic shift is underway
Not since the invention of the printing press, the steam engine, or the internet has a single force carried such power to reshape the foundation of human life. That force is artificial intelligence. It is not theoretical. It is not distant. It is already here-integrated into business workflows, education systems, public infrastructure, creative tools, and global decision-making processes.
This book is not just about AI as a technology. It is about the emergence of a new age-what historians may one day call the Intelligence Age.
