The Lifecycle of Software Objects by Ted Chiang
4.0
amazing. don’t be fooled by the title. it’s a pure fiction or specifically a science fiction. but i feel it’s not far from becoming a reality. get what i mean? with the rise of web3 and metaverse the depiction of virtual animals/pets (called digients) in this book makes sense and the virtual world building in this book has already started in our real lives as well. many companies are aiming users to join their “virtual world”.
ted chiang has written it beautifully. i was never bored, only intrigued to know how things will progress both for the humans and digients. it’s actually metaverse and evolution of AI in virtual characters. how serious people will take virtual beings and their attachment with digients. it could be an eye opener to where we are headed.
first time reading ted and i’m impressed. currently reading his collection of short stories “exhalation” and i’m hooked on that as well.
