impos73r 's review for:
Fully Automated Luxury Communism: A Manifesto
by Aaron Bastani
informative
inspiring
reflective
medium-paced
Like some other reviewers said, FALC hasn’t aged well the last few years.
It served as a nice intro to a few topics namely Universal Basic Services, but also spent a lot of extra time on other pie in the sky ideas like asteroid mining.
AI is also another topic the book left a lot to be desired with, mainly because the direction AI has taken since the book was published. Instead of the optimism that the book lends, we’re left with the AI hellscape we live in today.
