About this audiobook

How a broad range of new immensely powerful technologies is disrupting and transforming every corner of our reality—and why you must act and adapt.



Unsupervised: Navigating and Influencing a World Controlled by Powerful New Technologies examines the fast-emerging technologies and tools that are already starting to completely revolutionize our world. Beyond that, the book takes an in-depth look at how we have arrived at this dizzying point in our history, who holds the reins of these formidable technologies, mostly without any supervision. It explains why we as business leaders, entrepreneurs, academics, educators, lawmakers, investors or users and all responsible citizens must act now to influence and help oversee the future of a technological world. Quantum computing, artificial intelligence, blockchain, decentralization, virtual and augmented reality, and permanent connectivity are just a few of the technologies and trends considered, but the book delves much deeper, too. You'll find a thorough analysis of energy and medical technologies, as well as cogent predictions for how new tech will redefine your work, your money, your entertainment, your transportation and your home and cities, and what you need to know to harness and prosper from these technologies.

About the author

After a career in the early days of the global derivatives technology industry, Daniel Doll-Steinberg created one of the first global standards for digital rights management, securing and delivering activation keys and content direct to customers. In 2017 he cofounded the Atari Token Metaverse project. Stuart Leaf started his career at Merrill Lynch Capital Markets and Goldman Sachs. He held senior positions in smaller real estate, private equity, and asset management firms, before cofounding Cadogan Management, a Fund of Hedge Funds, in 1994. As the middle of six children, Michael Langan quickly carved out his space in the group; he was the storyteller. Out in the real world, he would work in office and administration roles until he quit his job in 2020, deciding to become a full-time voice-over artist and a background artist in film and television productions.
