    “We are all susceptible to the pull of viral ideas. Like mass hysteria. Or a tune that gets into your head that you keep humming all day until you spread it to someone else. Jokes. Urban legends. Crackpot religions. Marxism. No matter how smart we get, there is always this deep irrational part that makes us potential hosts for self-replicating information.” ― Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash

      Far more worried about the ads than the AI generated videos tbh.

        It’s a great book if you can get past that to the first line of the book.

        Ok, read 50 Shades then.

        The book is excellent and predictive of so much tech culture to come out shortly after.
