In times of powerful AI systems, such as GPT, Value-based Engineering is deeply needed. It is a new transdisciplinary IT innovation- and engineering approachrespecting human values and societal consequences of IT systems as these are planned and in early evolution stages. The book tells the story of why we need technology for humanity more than ever before and what principles we should follow in building it. More concretely, it is a guide on how exactly companies should pursue their innovation efforts with an epilogue on how this is different from aspiring science fiction. The Value-based Engineering approach outlined in this book with concrete case-studies, forms and over 90 illustrations was developed and revised by over 100 experts from around the world engaged in a project called IEEE P7000 TM.
