I'm doing a free lecture and gathering in Japan, including a book party! My first and, likely, only visit in this lifetime. I'd love to meet you. October 17.

The hidden history of modern machine intelligence has more to do with medieval poetry and Russian folktales than the myths being told in Silicon Valley. A very different conversation about AI with Dennis Yi Tenen, author of Literary Theory for Robots.

Let the robots do certainty. We humans are at our best when we can stay in the unresolved space of uncertainty. And it turns out there's scientific evidence supporting this.

Hey Japan: I'm coming to Tokyo! My event - "The Battle for Digital Survival: Who Will Survive?" (how they translated "Survival of the Richest: Escape Fantasies of the Tech Billionaires") - Tuesday Oct 17 at 2p, Hibiya Library and Cultural Center Convention Hall (B1F Large Hall).

This new paper, which argues that the AI hype & psychedelics hype are interconnected, is possibly my most ambitious work. It synthesizes all of my previous work, from right-wing psychedelia to psychedelic capitalism & suggestibility in clinical trials:  /1 https://t.co/WxLJAxX8ui

I wasn't really eager to relive the toxic ol' days of Y2K, but Alex Kazemi's raunchy, harrowing and heartbreaking debut novel New Millennium Boyz took me there. In fact, I am a background character. I wrote about it + talked to Alex for @thedailybeast

@DavidBrin Yeah. As you know, I've been analyzing the historical, economic, and tech-culture streams that have led to this mindset. I do think my Survival of the Richest is useful in understanding the "fad," and I have heard from a few TESCREALs that it helped them recover from the lunacy.

Do your customers know more about your products than you do? A new monologue from me about how we measure ourselves and employees in terms of utility instead of true passion. And why that's a problem.

We humans are all part of the same goo. Kevin Slavin shares the weird and wonderful world of microbial sensing — and what our community poop can teach us about the game of life. https://t.co/W4aKiAmdOs

@AlisaCohn Wonderful to meet you, too! More soon. And thanks!
