Indeed. His predictions so far were not so off as one would have thought.

But Max Bennett's "A Brief History of Intelligence" is the perfect mix of AI, neuroscience and human history. Loved it.

The best book I've read on AI and human intelligence in the recent years.

I've read quite a lot of awesome books on the topic over the last years:
- Livewired, Incognito and The Brain by David Eagleman
- Nexus by Yuval Harari
- The Coming Wave by Mustafa Suleyman

Isn't it weird that non-fiction books are defined by "not being fiction"? Is fiction the default? #nonfiction #booksky

Carlo Rovelli's books are definitely worth a read!

Max Bennett's "A Brief History of Human Intelligence". It is the perfect mix of AI, neuroscience and human history. Very insightful.

Do you do that for each non-fiction book you read? How long does it take you?

I do note taking and storing / managing in Obsidian, which is already quite a lengthy process.

Not yet, but stumbled across you when searching for good book summaries.

Is this the golden age of product people?

With the insane AI progress in coding, we see a fundamental shift in business.

The "Know how to build" becomes commoditized and the "Know what to build" becomes incredibly more valuable.

Do you agree?

Manus probably isn't China's second 'DeepSeek moment' | TechCrunch Manus, a Chinese agentic AI tool, has gone viral. But the tech suffers from a number of limitations and bugs.

Seems like it was a little bit overhyped. techcrunch.com/2025/03/09/m...

I just logged into #Twitter #X after many years away.

First 10 posts were about #Trump, #ElonMusk, #DOGE and #Bitcoin.

That's why I created an account on @bsky.app

Reading a summary is enough in my opinion. Gives you the essentials and the understanding that it is a basis for other - more recent and better - books on the topics management, competition, etc.

A Brief History of Intelligence by Max Bennett. First two chapters were a good start and promised an exciting book.

Just finished #RayKurzweil's "The Singularity is Nearer".

I really love his AI optimism.

I've been reading a lot over the last 10 year. On average I read 28 non-fiction books a year.

And I've always wondered: where does all this reading bring me? How do I best retain and apply the knowledge?

How are you doing it?

Just saw that Andrew Barto and Richard Sutton have won the 2024 Turing Award, roughly the computer-science equivalent of the Nobel. Incredibly highly deserved to these two pioneers of reinforcement learning.
