You've probably heard of it, but do yourself a favour and read Rick Reilly's Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump – (Hachette Books, 2019)
I know little and care less about golf but this book was gripping! Reilly is a great writer and, despite my having read several other books on Trump (Mary Trump, Michael Wolff, etc), I really think Reilly's explains Trumps method of operation better than every other attempt.
It's absolutely shocking what he does in his day to day life. The anecdotes are piled high, the double dealing and fabrications are outrageous. Every single page contains some revelation even more odious than the previous.
A morbid fascination and dogged curiosity regarding the depths of Trump's moral abyss will keep you tutting and eye-rolling to the end.
(Sounds like a sales pitch, I know. But I casually picked it up in a thrift shop for €1. No regrets!)
I think he's one of those readers who cannot take in the content of text while focusing on reading. You'll notice he only starts freewheeling on the last word or two of a sentence or paragraph. That's all he's heard.
I think I first heard this from an article by Tony Schwartz who wrote The Art of the Deal. He mentioned seeing the speeches book by Trump's bed during one of their brief meetings about Trump's book, which Trump took no part in.
So many confident takes on AI by people who've never opened a book on the nature of sentience, free will, intelligence, philosophy of mind, brain vs mind, etc.
There are hundreds of serious volumes on these, not to mention the plethora of casual pop science books with some of these basic thought experiments and hypotheses.
Seems like more and more incredibly shallow articles on AI are appearing every day, which is to be expected with the rapid decline of professional journalism.
It's a bit jarring and frankly offensive to be lectured 'at' by people who are obviously on the first step of their journey into this space.
Reagan ended his term 36 years ago. Don't make us that old for being there!
