Overview

THE ARROGANCE OF IGNORANCE The Comfort of Knowing Nothing in the Age of AI by Alessio Faccia Artificial Intelligence has made ignorance feel intelligent. People no longer think; they generate. Students copy what they do not understand, employees report what they cannot verify, and governments legislate through algorithms they cannot explain. This book exposes the quiet collapse of human reasoning behind the polished façade of automation. It shows how the blind pursuit of convenience and speed is eroding education, corrupting expertise, and turning institutions into obedient users of machines that never question themselves. The Arrogance of Ignorance is a sharp, accessible, and unsettling reflection on how society confuses information with knowledge and imitation with intelligence. It argues that technology is not replacing humans - it is replacing those who stop thinking. Readers will discover: - Why dependence on AI creates intellectual and moral fragility - How ""synthetic wisdom"" shapes modern education, work, and government - What must be restored to protect authentic thinking in an automated age Alessio Faccia, a professor and researcher who uses AI daily in his work, defends the tool but exposes its danger - not as technology, but as a mirror reflecting our laziness to think.
