Compelling read. My main criticism is that it has very few (almost no) counter perspectives against the current dominant thinking in AI, as of 2024 when the book was written. That said, that's fine if you just want to read the book as a deep-dive on the scaling-hypothesis side of AI thinking (which is a perfectly fine way to frame the book). I was also a bit disappointed that the book was almost entirely snippets of Patel's existing podcast rather than entirely originally writing. They were thoughtfully curated though, and it led to a unique style.
