It’s as if you were clairvoyant when you wrote this. Becomes truer & more applicable as the days go by.

That’s encouraging! It’s great to hear someone else has skepticism about Musk (in addition to the Allen/Warroom crew), I’ll have to check it out! Dark Aeon is a prescient warning (all 584 pages of it) & I’d argue that it’s a seminal work regarding how we perceive & opt to move forward /navigate this continually advancing tech as a society. I know of no other author who has comprehensively written and voiced such significant history, details, and critique regarding AI and transhumanism, in this manner, with cited sources. These are critical discussions to have.

I look forward to hearing what you think of Corbett's work.

Yes I own a copy of Dark Aeon.

I agree that the book has many valid and astute points regarding AI.

Personally, I do not share Joe's views on so called "illegal immigrants", considering this : https://substack.com/@gavinmounsey/note/c-94196148 but aside from that, I found the book to be very informative.

The more people let these LLMs do the heavy lifting for them, the weaker their brains get.
