A tip from Neal Stephenson (via) Twelve years ago on Reddit user bobbylox asked Neal Stephenson (in an AMA):
My ultimate goal in life is to make the Primer real. Anything you want to make sure I get right?
Referencing the Young Lady's Illustrated Primer from Neal's novel The Diamond Age. Stephenson replied:
Kids need to get answers from humans who love them.
(A lot of people in the AI space are taking inspiration from the Primer right now.)
