“The best book I’ve read on AI. It’s supremely timely, it takes no prisoners, and Sam Altman would hate it.” That's my blurb for @garrisonlovely.bsky.social new book 'Obsolete'. Do yourself a favour and preorder it now

Very late notice, but today I'll be speaking at the Oxford Literary Festival (unsurprisingly in Oxford)- shorturl.at/5HEKu Do come along if you are in the area (or pass it on to anyone who might be!)

I'll be soon submitting the amendments for the paperback version of Goliath's Curse! I want it to be as accurate as possible, so if you've spotted any errors (either factual, grammatical, or otherwise) then please let me know asap and I'll make sure they are addressed

I really enjoyed these discussions with David! It offers a much deeper dive into each part of my book 'Goliath's Curse'.
