Artificial Intelligence has been “just around the corner” for decades, continually disappointing those who long believed in its potential.

But now, with the emergence and growing use of generative AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and a rapidly multiplying number of others, many are wondering: Has AI’s moment finally arrived?In AI Valley, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Gary Rivlin brings us deep into the world of AI development in Silicon Valley.

Over the course of more than a year, Rivlin closely follows founders and venture capitalists trying to capitalize on this AI moment.

In addition to Hoffman, Rivlin introduces us to other AI experts, including OpenAI cofounder Sam Altman and Mustafa Suleyman, the co-founder of DeepMind, an early AI startup that Google bought for $650  million in 2014. Rivlin also brings readers inside Microsoft, Meta, Google and other tech giants scrambling to keep pace.

On this vast frontier, no one knows which of these companies will hit it big—or which will flame out spectacularly.
