Harvey R. Koeppel
1968
Where It Started

A twenty-year-old, a classroom, and a piece of cardboard.

In 1968, a twenty-year-old in a classroom saw the future in a piece of cardboard and formed a question he has been carrying ever since: who would be in control of this kind of capability?

That question is no longer theoretical. AI is already here. The gap between what it can do and the wisdom required to govern it is growing every day. The Translator's Advantage is Harvey's first book. He wrote it because the moment demanded it.
