Pretty cool so far, I like how focused on the data it is and the way he has structured the book thus far, cool way of framing the overall issue.

Microsoft being fucking useless as per usual.

A pretty tidy introduction to the history of the field, gotta admit though, Minsky seemed like a petulant dickhole that effectively held back the development of AI through his grandstanding and toddleresque tantrums. Also, why does the Wikipedia page point to Minsky instead of Rosenblatt, who built the fucking thing, Minsky's (apparently more famous) criticism doesn't exist without the actual implementation.
