In May 1997, the world watched as Garry Kasparov, the greatest chess player in the world, was defeated for the first time by the IBM supercomputer Deep Blue. In this breakthrough book, Kasparov tells his side of the story for the first time - what it was like to strategize against an implacable, untiring opponent – the mistakes he made and the reasons the odds were against. But more than that, he tells his story of AI more generally and how he's evolved to embrace it. Full of expert knowledge and fascinating insights, Deep Thinking offers a powerful, persuasive – and positive – vision of our future that everyone should read.

"The great Garry Kasparov takes on the key economic issue of our time: how we can thrive as humans in a world of thinking machines. This important and optimistic book explains what we as humans are uniquely qualified to do. Instead or wringing our hands about robots, we should all read this book and embrace the future."― Walter Isaacson, bestselling author of The Innovators
