Скачать или смотреть Blindsight book review

This week we're reading "Blindsight" by Peter Watts. A cerebral first contact science fiction story, Blindsight felt more relevant today than when it was originally written, as its discussions of intelligence, consciousness, AI, and the diversity of human experience feels more relevant to the headlines of today then the headlines of post 9-11 America when it was first published. This novel offers a brutal take on sentience and consciousness that gets the mind spinning.

This review contains thematic spoilers; the specifics of the plot are not discussed but themes of the book are discussed which might be a spoiler for some readers.
