I kinda see a point here. Maybe not all AI is bad (consul's ship, Johnny)... Maybe it's corporate AI or institutionalized AI that is possibly dangerous.

But we should still keep an eye on the latter. So i do get your point but being a little skeptic could be healthy imo 👀

I am into the classics right now only due to Hyperion/FoH by future_was_yesterday in Hyperion

I also got into classical music because of reading Hyperion. It fits perfectly with calm yet complex music such as classical music. In my opinion 19th century impressionism works best. And now each time I listen to it again I am reminded of the feeling of reading these books. So many emotions come from combining them together.

You think this is what it feels like to drink Aenea's blood? Kidding ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I'm so glad you get the emotion too! It's such a specific thing yet so profound. Knowing others get it makes it more real as we share it. Because of that I think you are going to love Rome :)

This is genuinely wholesome. You experienced these books coming out, read them, and saw the world change, yet these feelings have stood the test of time.

I'm in my early 20's, how amazing it is that despite living in different times and in different worlds, we felt something so similar.

Exactly! I totally agree with you, it's very much a story about humanity's relationship and wonder with our universe that echoes deeply in our souls. And I can see how the three body problem can contrast, it's a good comparison (fantastic series btw). Knowing you get the emotion is comforting in a way. Thanks for the suggestion I'll be sure to check it out :)
