About the Book

The Horizon of Artificial Intelligence is a wide-ranging intellectual journey through the changing landscape of artificial intelligence and human intelligence. Written by Piero Formica, Professor of Knowledge Economy and Thought Leader at the Innovation Value Institute, Maynooth University, the book explores AI not only as a technological development, but also as a question of creativity, knowledge, uncertainty, innovation, education, society, and the human future.

Published as a CORE Academy Digital Edition, this first digital edition presents the book as a living work of reflection on one of the defining transformations of our time. Moving across philosophy, economics, history, literature, entrepreneurship, and technology, the volume invites readers to consider how artificial intelligence is reshaping the conditions under which human beings think, learn, create, decide, and imagine.

This edition includes forewords by Alan Barrell and Brian Donnellan, a contributed chapter by Siyue (Grace) Tang, an afterword by Martin Curley, and publication management by CORE Academy. Jiarui (Raymond) Wu serves as Managing Editor of this digital edition and has made thoughtful contributions to one chapter, as well as to the editorial preparation and publication of the book.
