The book “I Am an AI Team Leader Who Doesn’t Know How to Code” by Jeong Su-jin, a non-engineer with a humanities background who led Google DeepMind’s user experience (UX) research team and draws on 25 years of experience at Intel, Meta, Google and other companies, explores the role of humans in AI development. It examines the competition to develop AI and the limits of the technology, and highlights the potential decline in thinking ability that can result from relying on machines. It also explains why results can vary depending on users’ questions and goals, even when they use the same AI. The author identifies intention, discernment, responsibility, empathy and meaning as essential capabilities in the AI era, emphasizing that deciding what one wants, selecting results and taking responsibility are human tasks. The book also offers advice on career planning and describes how big tech companies work by defining problems, developing solutions and delivering them to users.
