An author who left a lasting impression is undoubtedly Witold Gombrowicz. One of the greatest writers of the 20th century in my opinion. If I had to choose just one work, it would be this one A beautiful meditation on stupidity and immaturity

@drewcoffman.eth

finished Evil Robots, which argues AGI isn't happening anytime soon and that AI fears stem from misunderstanding other tech that’s worth worrying about (drones, COMPAS, etc) published in 2021, chapters like the one on self-driving cars hold up, but others like the one on gpt-2 feel extremely outdated

[1/2] If I had to remember only one thinker (which is absurd), it would undoubtedly be Michel Foucault. His obsession with deconstructing systems of thought has changed me forever. A brilliant mind who, through his own tropes, managed to decentralize thinking 😉🧠 https://youtu.be/BBJTeNTZtGU?si=KUdYpSzjdTiLEQqG

This is not a publishing problem to solve. This is a parental and societal problem to solve. https://slate.com/culture/2024/05/kids-reading-fun-books-decline-by-nine-crisis.html
