i haven't said much about the book because i've been so busy writing it, but it is by a large margin the hardest and most satisfying creative project i've ever done.

i got deep access to OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind and interviewed more than 150 lab insiders about the last decade in AI. it has scoops galore, and a bunch of never-before-told stories and internal documents about the race to AGI, and i hope it will be a true time capsule of this strange and exciting era.

i can't wait for ppl to read it!
