Well that is what the book is about, it is a speculative look at what hypothetical superintelligences might look like, it is explicitly not about the real world at all. Remember that the author is a philosopher, not an engineer, philosophy is all about hypotheticals.
- keiferski 2y agoPhilosophy is not all about hypotheticals. Philosophy of technology especially is mostly about technologies that already exist and their impact on society. Not speculation.
- satvikpendem 2y agoSome philosophy (of technology, among others) relates to that, not all. It is not necessarily all about concrete impacts either, it depends on the author and their interests.
