Yep that’s it. Really enjoyed it, just starting Echopraxia.

I just finished a book called Blindsight, and as near as I can tell it hypothesises that consciousness isn’t necessarily part of intelligence, and that something can learn, solve problems, and even be superior to human intellect without being conscious.

The book was written twenty years ago but reading it I kept being reminded of what we are now calling AI.

Great book btw, highly recommended.

I’m my day that wasn’t far from the truth. We don’t need quality games machines but they’re a very nice luxury.
