"This book is hard, but I'm at the end of section one!
One recurring thing I've noticed is the narration's fear that history will lose understanding of action and consequence and will instead just become a series of discrete, random events. Interesting parallel with the way that post-modernist lit like GR is in tension with more traditional narrative" — Jun 28, 2026 12:52PM

“One can, to be sure, program a digital machine in such a way as to be able to carry on a conversation with it, as if with an intelligent partner. The machine will employ, as the need arises, the pronoun “I” and all its grammatical inflections. This, however, is a hoax! The machine will still be closer to a billion chattering parrots—howsoever brilliantly trained the parrots be—than to the simplest, most stupid man. It mimics the behavior of a man on the purely linguistic plane and nothing more.”
