Comment on An untidy history of AI across four books

Comments

The four books discussed in that passage are:

AI Snake Oil – by Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor

Nexus – by Yuval Noah Harari

Genesis – by Henry Kissinger, Craig Mundie, and Eric Schmidt

The Singularity Is Nearer – by Ray Kurzweil

In 20 years, Kurzweil will write another book entitled, "The Singularity is Almost Here".

He's 77 years old. Let the man retire, damn.

Pills in; books out. That's the deal.

He should have merged with AI by then.

Henry Kissinger, noted AI expert.

it's not complimentary about them, FWIW

well craig mundie and eric schmidt not much better

As criticized in the featured article, yes.

He did so well with Theranos
