The book I'm recommending to anyone who will listen is Kate Crawford's Atlas of AI, which is thorough and critical (and she used to work in AI). It was published pre-ChatGPT 3.0, so before the hype cycle exploded--which I think is a strength of the book, tbh. katecrawford.net/atlas

From her website. I LOL’d “Order Atlas of AI now from your local bookstore or from a hegemonic book vendor”

I'll see your "Atlas of AI" and raise you an "AI Snake Oil" as a cogently written tonic from the other side of the aisle (from authors who also work in LLM and cog model dev). press.princeton.edu/books/hardco...

Other than that, there aren't any great books on AI and teaching--but there is a robust conversation in article- and blog-land. Anything by John Warner, @biblioracle.bsky.social, on the topic is essential reading.
