Part of the nonfiction Orca Think series for middle-grade readers, this illustrated book introduces young readers to artificial intelligence and how this technology will influence humanity now and in the future.

?“A must-buy for libraries where patrons are actively using AI tools or considering AI-related careers, this is equally valuable for those developing instruction on research methodologies, digital literacy, or copyright ethics.” — School Library Journal (SLJ), starred review

? “This inviting offering features a unique emphasis on weighing the positive and negative aspects of AI. There’s a plethora of recent titles on AI out there, but STEAM collections will still want to include this substantial and attractive guide.” — Booklist, starred review

Did you ask Siri for directions to soccer practice today or use face recognition to log on to your phone? That’s AI.

The latest generation of tech tools uses artificial intelligence to perform everyday tasks. AI can speed up repetitive jobs and even be used in software to help with medical diagnoses. But when the intellectual property of writers, actors and artists is uploaded into AI systems and used without permission, AI can cause harm. In Smart Machines, young readers will look at the history of AI, how it works, how it’s used for good and bad and the ethical issues it raises. They’ll also discover how the risks of AI can be managed through responsible design, regulation and in the individual choices people make about which tools to use or those to avoid. AI isn’t intelligent, but it’s a tool that is revolutionizing robotics and computer programming—and it could change humanity forever.
