The f*** off contact page - Nic Chan

I've owned a copy of Lions' for a long time; perhaps 25 years at the time of writing. I'm pretty sure it was one of the firts books I ordered from this wee book-selling website called Amazon, back in 1999.

"At this point, it doesn’t matter if tech executives and VCs believe their own hype and wild claims about what’s next for AI — though I firmly believe that they genuinely buy into the things they’re preaching and chugging their own kool aid — because they’ve made the grand pronouncements, they started their cults, and they promised a future of AGI-powered wonder. They sold equity to investors who give them billions every year, and those investors now expect steady double-digit percentage returns."
