It already influences who gets hired, what content people see, how credit is assessed, how healthcare resources are allocated, and how decisions are made at scale. Yet for most people, the risks behind these systems remain poorly understood, oversimplified, or dismissed as purely technical concerns. This book exists to change that.\u003cbr\u003eAI Risk for Everyone is a clear, grounded, and accessible guide to understanding how modern AI systems actually work, where their risks come from, and why those risks matter to individuals, organizations, and society as a whole. It does not rely on hype, fear, or speculative scenarios. Instead, it explains real systems, real failures, and real trade-offs in language that both non-technical readers and experienced developers can understand.\u003cbr\u003eYou will learn why AI systems make predictions rather than judgments, why confidence is not the same as correctness, and how small design choices can create large downstream harm. The book breaks down concepts such as bias, data drift, automation bias, overreliance, and systemic risk, not as abstract ideas, but as everyday realities already shaping outcomes in business, healthcare, government, and online platforms.\u003cbr\u003eRather than framing \u003cb\u003eAI risk \u003c\/b\u003eas something distant or inevitable, this book treats understanding risk as a form of empowerment. It shows how awareness restores human control, how oversight matters more than raw accuracy, and why responsibility cannot be delegated to software. You will see how organizations unintentionally lose control through over-automation, how accountability gaps emerge, and why technical fixes alone are never enough.\u003cbr\u003eThe book also addresses long-term and emerging risks without speculation, explaining alignment problems, increasing autonomy, and how today's deployment decisions shape future constraints. It connects technical behavior with governance, policy, and human judgment, offering a complete picture of AI as a socio-technical system rather than a black box.\u003cbr\u003eWritten in a professional yet approachable tone, this book is designed for a broad audience: curious individuals, professionals working alongside AI, engineers building systems, leaders deploying them, and policymakers shaping oversight. No advanced mathematics or prior AI background is required-only a willingness to think critically.\u003cbr\u003eBy the end, you will not just understand what can go wrong with AI systems. You will understand why these risks emerge, who is responsible for managing them, and what can be done-practically and realistically-to reduce harm without abandoning innovation.\u003cbr\u003eIf you use AI, build AI, manage AI, or are affected by AI decisions-which means almost everyone-this book gives you the clarity needed to stay informed, stay engaged, and stay in control. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eRead this book to replace blind trust with informed judgment-and to help shape a future where AI serves people, not the other way around.\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47568505831575,"sku":"9798250475952","price":2023.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798250475952.webp?v=1774868878","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/ai-risk-for-everyone-understanding-the-risks-behind-modern-ai-systems-9798250475952","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
