      abstract = {This book seeks to leverage academic interdisciplinarity  to develop insight into how artificial intelligence (AI),  the latest GPT to emerge, may influence or radically change  socio-political norms, practices, and institutions. AI may  best be understood as a predictive technology. Prediction  is the process of filling in missing information.  Prediction takes information you have, often called data,  and uses it to generate information you dont have Agrawal,  Gans, and Goldfarb 2018, 13; also see Mayer-Schonberger and  Ramge 2018). AI makes prediction cheap because the cost of  information is now close to zero. Cheap prediction through  AI technologies is radically altering how we govern  ourselves, interact with each other, and sustain society.  Contributors to this book represent the academic  disciplines of sociology and political science working  within a diverse set of intra-disciplinary fields that when  combined, yield novel insights into the following questions  guiding this book: How might AI transform people? How might  AI transform socio-political practices? How might AI  transform socio-political institutions? Tugrul Keskin is  Professor in the College of Liberal Arts and Director of  the Centre for Global Governance at Shanghai University.  Ryan Kiggins is Instructor in the Department of Political  Science at the University of Central Oklahoma, Edmond, OK,  USA.},
