Synopsis

Winner of the Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award

Updated paperback edition with a new preface from the author.

The astonishing story of the people fighting to control the future of generative artificial intelligence - and, therefore, the future of humanity. From award-winning journalist Parmy Olson.

Two titans of Silicon Valley, Microsoft and Google, rushed to embrace artificial intelligence. Microsoft entered a strategic partnership with OpenAI, creator of ChatGPT. Google acquired DeepMind. Together, they now had the resources of the two leading AI companies in the world - and, with it, the potential for unlimited riches.

But what is the cost of this arms race?
Who will win out between Demis Hassabis (Google DeepMind) and Sam Altman (OpenAI)?
And, as we outsource ever more to this technology, what will be left for humans to do?

Featuring a cast of larger-than-life characters, from Elon Musk and Peter Thiel to Mark Zuckerberg and Sergey Brin, Supremacy is a story of ambition, exploitation and secrecy, as gripping as any thriller.

With exclusive access to sources at the top of the industry, Supremacy is your essential guide to the history - and the future - of the greatest invention of our time.

'Astonishing' - Financial Times
'A compelling warning' - The Times
'A riveting tale . . . Olson is a compelling storyteller' - New Scientist
