The author is religious which one would expect less from a view on science and technology. As we say different perspectives are important and this book shows that. There are economic points missing but that leaves room for the storytelling and the metaphoric elements which many humans digest far easier!

This shan’t be a simple list of “What to do” but it will be good practice to understand the whole to find the answers. I encourage listening to interviews of the author before or after proceeding. (Which is a good move with any book.) The most substantial point is the slow reveal of how we expected machines to advance to be more like humans, but with our current system it has been easier and more profitable to treat humans (us) more like machines.
