Layla King is 5% done with Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
I think it’s a good rule of thumb to balance out any book I read on AI with a grounded nature book.

Interesting quote: “The assumption that any intelligent agent will want to recursively self-improve—let alone conquer the galaxy to better achieve it’s goals—makes unwarranted assumptions about the nature of motivation”

It’s interesting to read abt the development of location-based apps. Apparently Life360 was developed in 2008–the same time that Loopt and Foursquare were growing. I wonder how Life360 survived.
