Which book in your life has had the most impact? - eviltoast

For me reading the Tao Te Ching was a game changer. Some of the ideas in that book really changed my perspective on things.

    Glad I read all of Asimov’s Robots and Foundation series for a positive perspective on offline open source AI now. It is a much better exploration and perspective on AI than the typical small brain dystopian nonsense in more mainstream SciFi media. Like I understand the alignment problem, have a better outlook on how far we are from AGI, and look forward to the AGI future; while expecting the majority of people to be prejudice and stupid about it.
