Your choices shape your life.
But what happens when those same choices start shaping machines?
What happens when flawed human decision-making is scaled, systemised, and embedded into artificial intelligence? Because AI isn't the threat.
Human misalignment is. Drawing on two decades of real-world experience, behavioural science, and emerging AI research, Matthew dissects how decisions are actually made - from tribal instincts and dopamine-driven habits to boardroom dynamics and global systems. This isn't theory. It's a diagnosis. Inside, you'll explore:
- Why the human brain is fundamentally misaligned with the world it now operates in
- How bias, identity, and reward systems quietly shape decisions at every level
- What happens when those same patterns are taught to machines
- Why most institutions are already making misaligned decisions at scale
- What it will take to build systems - human and artificial - that don't collapse under pressure
