The Coming Wave: AI, Power and Our Future by Mustafa Suleyman and Michael Bhaskar

The Coming Wave: AI, Power and Our Future examines the rapid rise of transformative technologies, especially artificial intelligence and biotechnology, and their growing impact on society.

The authors describe these innovations as a “coming wave” that will reshape economies, politics, and daily life. While these technologies promise major benefits—such as medical breakthroughs and increased efficiency—they also introduce serious risks, including misuse, inequality, and loss of control.

Mustafa Suleyman argues that the world is entering a critical phase where these tools are becoming difficult to regulate. Governments and institutions may struggle to keep pace, making international cooperation and smart governance essential.

Blending insight, research, and real-world examples, the book delivers a powerful message: the future depends on our ability to balance rapid technological progress with responsibility, safety, and global coordination.
