AI Tools, Not Gods: Why Artificial Intelligence Hype Threatens Global Governance-and How to Fix It - Paperback
by Caroline De Cock (Author), Brewster Kahle (Foreword by)
AI is not magic.
It's not a god, a demon, or a sentient mind plotting its next move.
It's a set of tools and infrastructure we build, deploy, and should control.
From Silicon Valley hype to political speeches, the way we talk about AI turns it into something supernatural-and those stories are shaping the laws we live by.
In AI Tools, Not Gods, Caroline De Cock takes readers inside the myth-making machine, revealing the four seductive narratives that are warping AI policy, and shows how to replace them with evidence-based rules that protect people, encourage innovation, and hold real actors accountable.
Whether you're a policymaker, a technologist, or just someone tired of the hype, this book is a clear-eyed guide to governing the AI we actually have.
