I work at a firm that is going to go through some hard times once automation (specifically self-driving vehicles) take off, but the idea is too far fetched for other members of management to appreciate.

What are some good books on A.I. and Automation that I can both read and recommend to others so that we're all on an informed place when planning the next five years?

I don't visit /lit/ frequently so I'm not sure how well liked pop science books are received. The people I work with are not science inclined so that's probably the best bet.

Thanks!

How is Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies? I received it as a gift but haven't started it yet, but thumbing through it seems like it's more technical (not a problem for me, but for the others)

See if any of the following is what you are looking for:

These popped up on Amazon when I searched "Self Driving Cars," some of them look a little on the questionable side:

I'm looking for something that goes into how automation will affect the entire web of the economy, if that exists?

Like, anyone who follows autonomous cars expects that drivers (truck drivers, cab drivers, delivery drivers, etc) to largely be replaced as the adoption rate of AI cars approaches 100%.

What about other industries that rely on people in cars? Electric cars (which I imagine most AI cars to be) are much simpler under the hood apparently, what about parts manufacturers and mechanics?

AI will cause a tiny fraction of the accidents that human drivers do, what about the legal profession which has a huge chunk of it's trade either trying or defending motor vehicle accident injuries? If cars are no longer crashing, what about the consumer insurance companies that have revenues mostly composed of personal auto policies?
