This book, Daemon, was AWE-SOME. Highly recommend it especially for Bitcoiners or people into tech stuff.
From 2008 about a genius video game company founder who, when he died, his Daemon, that was running and scanning news, was waiting for that info so it could initiate a process that began wreaking havoc thru the internet, automation and these AI-enabled logic structures. It began cementing this kind of immortal influence of the founder that ruthlessly changes the world.
Really interesting for Bitcoiners because Bitcoin is also a Daemon that was set loose in the world and has the potential of changing it significantly, but thru incentives of course, so it makes for some really thought provoking moments about the nature of a Daemon as a new type of organizing structure in society.
It's actually like the fiction version of The Sovereign Individual in a way, which is wild. Highly recommend.
