Thanks for this great read. The prize has been on my "to do" list for some time so will definitely read it now. I also was completely aware of the IBM episode. Another very useful nudge.
Thank you so much for this one, very thought provoking. Chris‘ approach to analysing history and (human) structures and applying it to the present and future reminds me a lot about the concept of „psychohistory“ in Isaac Asimov‘s „Foundation“ predicting the future. Let’s hope he is wrong about the World War III one though.

Same here! Have to read it now.
Really thoughtful conversation - got me to open a few new browsers tabs which it my measuring stick for things like this.
Love to hear that :)

Agreed on that last point. Bumping Foundation up my reading list after that description!
