Two books by Dreyfus have been published, I have read both. I would be curious what he would think and write about the AI today, but unfortunately he deceased away in 2017.
Already in his first book from 1972 (German about 1976/1981) he foresaw all the problems of the AI, and in his second book from 1986 he specified them again. He was right - practically about everything.
First book: What computer can't do - The Limits of Artificial Intelligence; Harper & Row, Publishers, New York; 1972
Second book: Mind over Machine, The Free Press, New York 1986
Very nice, I'll check those out.
Two very interesting books about AI that I would recommend are these by Ray Kurzweil:
The Age of Spiritual Machines
The Singularity is Near
