Henry Kissinger’s final book will be published this fall.
Little, Brown will publish Genesis: Artificial Intelligence, Hope, and the Human Spirit, co-written with technologists Eric Schmidt and Craig Mundie, the press announced in a news release. It says the book “outlines an inspiring and effective strategy for navigating the age of AI, empowering readers to make smart decisions and seize exciting opportunities in this new era.”
Kissinger, the controversial former U.S. Secretary of State, died last year at 100. He was the author of several books, including American Foreign Policy, White House Years and On China; he wrote about artificial intelligence in the 2021 book The Age of AI, co-written with Schmidt and Daniel Huttenlocher.
Schmidt is a software engineer who was the CEO of Google from 2001 to 2011, and Mundie is the co-founder of Alliant Computer Systems who worked as chief research and strategy officer for Microsoft.
The new book, Little, Brown says, “outlines an effective strategy for navigating the age of AI” and “prepares the decision makers of today—that is, all of us—for the choices of tomorrow, and equips us to seize the opportunities presented by AI without falling prey to the darker forces that this revolution has unleashed.”
Genesis is slated for publication on Nov. 19.
