The MANIAC - reflections on humanity, technology, and intelligence
5 žvaigždutės
Really enjoyed it. It covers the life of John von Neumann through the imagined voices of different people (family, friends, scientists) who know him through his life. It's ostensibly a true story but put through the fictional narration of diverse voices. But it's not simply a biography; it's more a reflection on what it means to be human, what is human intelligence, and the consequences of rapid technological change brought about by human intelligence, leading up to the creation of machine intelligence..
