Our Journey From Myth To Machine: Special Edition
by Gerry White
Finally — a book about AI that speaks human.
In The Evolution of Artificial Intelligence: Our Journey from Myth to Machine, Gerry White has done something rare. He’s made one of the most complex and fast-moving topics of our time not only understandable, but genuinely engaging. If you’ve ever asked, “What even is AI — and why does it feel like it’s taking over?” this is the book that will actually answer that question.
White starts where few AI books dare to go: not in a lab, but in a legend.
The 1st volume in a series of dialogues and narratives. This is an exploration of the concepts of the freewill and regret of the very first: a conversation with a fallen; Lucifer.
In Angels Hunger Too, Dustin Medicone embarks on a profound journey to explore the deepest themes of existence—God, humanity, angels, free will, rebellion, and conformity. In a unique twist, Dustin is given the extraordinary opportunity to sit down with each of the archangels, engaging in raw, insightful conversations about the divine hierarchy, the nature of service, and the essence of free will. Through these dialogues, written in a traditional form yet presented through a modern medium, readers are invited to witness the intersection between the cosmic and the personal. The archangels reveal glimpses of their internal struggles, motivations, stories, and views on God's plan, offering a deeply human perspective on celestial beings who, like humans, grapple with purpose and destiny.
Dig deep inside and find ideas and words that you can recycle again and again. “Interpretation so becomes an issue inherent in the notion of freedom. We as humans do naturally ‘see and/or read’ things from different perspectives. Soaccording to th[os]e ruled, and even some rulers who [are] or have been ruled themselves, there is a need for a discussion about freedom in order
to not only attain it but also preserve it. We can reenter this discussion by reading and recycling the many texts that it helped create.”
