Cory Doctorow’s New Book on Bursting the AI Bubble: Strike at Its Roots

Cory Doctorow’s latest book, 'The Reverse Centaur’s Guide to Life After AI,' serves as a follow-up to his work on enshittification, focusing on the AI industry. He introduces the concept of a 'reverse centaur,' where humans act as organic peripherals to machines, exemplified by Amazon delivery drivers monitored by AI. Doctorow argues that the AI bubble can be burst by addressing these fundamental distortions, and he wrote the book to cut through the hype and clarify the material reality.
