The new book by Ugo Maria Ilardo

Now I Decide

Learning, Neuroscience, and Artificial Intelligence to Stay Human

We are constantly influenced by information, interfaces, algorithms, habits and emotions. This book does not promise to eliminate those influences. It offers the tools to recognise them and recover the space in which a conscious decision becomes possible.

The book

Learning is not simply the accumulation of content. It changes the way we perceive reality, interpret signals and make decisions. Neuroscience helps us understand these mechanisms; artificial intelligence makes the need to govern them even more urgent.

Now I Decide connects learning, attention, cognitive biases, technology and responsibility. Its central question is practical: how can we use increasingly powerful tools without handing over our judgement?

Stop. Observe. Understand. Choose.
«Freedom does not begin when nobody influences us, but when we understand what influences us and choose what we are willing to answer for.»

A path through four questions

  1. What shapes our attention?
  2. How do we learn and decide?
  3. What should we delegate to artificial intelligence?
  4. How do we preserve human responsibility?
Ugo Maria Ilardo, author of Now I Decide
