AI + The New Human Frontier

Acknowledgments

First and foremost, I want to acknowledge my son, Zane, whose insight, curiosity, and sense of wonder serve as a beacon of optimism and hope. You, Zane, are who I ultimately do this work for. You are a gift. Thank you to Edie, my very first mentor (turned fabulous mother-in-law) who, when I was a wide-eyed and unsure 20-something, took a chance on me and gave me the opportunity of a lifetime. You have truly changed my life in more beautiful ways than I can count. Thank you to the late Arnold Brown, who not only helped me become a better writer and a better thinker but also was always a source of wisdom (and unheard-of Boggle words). Thank you to my parents, Wendy and David, who always told me to think big and spread my wings. Your unwavering belief in me has shaped me into who I am today. Thank you to my sisterhood—the incredible women in my life who have filled my cup in immeasurable ways. Thank you to Joyce Forrester, our incredible Office Manager, who not only spent hours pulling out research from our archives but, most of all, is an indispensable member of our team. Thank you to my entire team at Wiley who helped make this book happen (Krysta Winsheimer, Sara Deichman, Pete Gaughan, and the list goes on). James Minatel, thank you for your vision and your guidance. Thank you to the team at Alternatives (Julie Koch-Beinke, Mark Koch, and Daniel Acacio)—I am always grateful for your vision and ongoing partnership.

Thank you, most of all, to Jared, my husband ...
