This volume presents seven essays that examine the ethical, cultural, regulatory, and socio-political dimensions of AI, drawing on historical, philosophical, business/computer ethics, and policy perspectives. It begins with a historical analysis of AI's origins and early debates, tracing lessons on hype, institutional influence, and the limits of replicating human intelligence. Subsequent chapters explore AI in popular culture, analyzing recurring motifs such as autonomy, surveillance, and techno-authoritarianism to reveal ethical insights and critique dystopian narratives. The volume then addresses governance challenges, evaluating the need for stronger AI regulation, the implications of U.S. policy shifts, and the strengths and limitations of the E.U.'s AI Act and California's Transparency in Frontier AI Act. Finally, it examines antitrust concerns and the ethical, economic, and societal rationale for interventions, including breaking up dominant tech firms. Collectively, the essays provide a multidimensional and interdisciplinary framework for understanding AI's promises, perils, and governance in an evolving technological landscape.
