Well it did spur the research into multi-agent systems (popular study area in 1990s) and interaction protocols. So there was a degree of influence.
But taken on its own it is indeed more a book of musings. I put GEB, ANKOS and the like into the same genre.
- lisper 4y agoI'm with you on ANKOS, but GEB is an accessible and fun (if a bit wordy) introduction to formal systems and Godel's theorem, so I wouldn't put it in the same category. GEB also was not marketed as anything revolutionary (except in its pedagogy). ANKOS and SoM were.
