@nocto Hat tip to the not age appropriate pinup girl cover art… smart money is “made by a man”

#BookReview for "Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI" by Karen HaoRecommended18hrs, but interesting. Opinionated against AI and Sam Altman. Discusses the negative effects on low-paid workers in the global south to train AI and environmental effects, including the proliferation of data centers across the world and how that isn't always a good thing. Covers the history of AI companies and how they've tended to discard ethics along the way. Useful to get perspective on where we are today.

#BookReview "Little Bosses Everywhere: How the Pyramid Scheme Shaped America" by Bridget ReadRecommendedValuable, in that it will hopefully inoculate people against joining pyramid schemes.Wish it mentioned more modern MLMs, not just Mary Kay and Amway.Informative and compelling. This book has moving stories of the ways women have been harmed by MLMs. It gets into their toxic business structures and the way the US has failed to regulate them.Some reviewers criticize the author for mentioning politics. I'm sorry, but any reporting on unregulated businesses causing harm is going to be critical of conservative politics.

@nocto I really appreciated A City on Mars as well. One of the things I really took away from it is how little thought and research has been done on the nitty-gritty of living off earth. For example, Musk has ranted for years about how he's going to send people to Mars in the near future (before abruptly switching to the Moon) but has never even tried to create a closed-cycle ecology or reliable power source that would be a necessity. The Weinersmiths are great on this.
