Le Triomphe de Votre Intelligence

Idriss Aberkane, the author of the bestseller Free your brain!, returns three years later with a powerful new essay on our future and artificial intelligence. There is great value in making you believe that you are not intelligent. This makes it possible to reduce your salary, to devalue your words, to deprive you of your rights, to close doors to you... in short, to say no to you: no to your professional ambitions, no to your political commitment, no to your social relationships . With the rise of artificial intelligence, the old doctrine of "Stay-in-Your-Place" has found a new argument: yesterday, you were told "you are not intelligent enough", tomorrow you will be told "you are not as intelligent as our machines. We will always seek to limit your freedoms – your choices, your movements, your dreams.

Imagine being in a store where you could set the discount on any product yourself.

This store is the world, but too often, the product is you. This book is designed to defend you against these manipulations, point by point. At a time when eugenics is resurfacing, where we would like to replace voting with data, and affirm that intelligence is purely genetic – that there are therefore elite humans and others of the second order – you and your children will always encounter people willing to diminish your potential by comparing you to machines.

This book has one goal: to remind people that humans surpass all their creations, and to restore their place in the face of artificial intelligence.
