About the book
Why Learn?
Artificial intelligence promises us a world of effortless knowledge, a utopia of not-needing-to-know because all knowledge is a keystroke away. Why Learn? confronts the question posed by this promise, and forces us to rethink the very foundations of what it means to be human.
World-renowned authorities on cognition and learning, authors Torkel Klingberg and Åsa Wikforss explain that to truly learn is to attempt difficult things, to challenge our minds and our spirits. And the key to survival in an AI world lies in recognizing this.
Distilling their decades of research down to six central tenets to help readers sharpen their learning skills and navigate the demands of an AI world, the authors give us a hopeful and powerful argument for the enduring value of human knowledge.
