This week I've been mainly reading, 284.
Marge Piercy's SciFi tale Body of Glass (1992) makes an explicit parallel between Jewish tales/myths of the Golum & the construction of a sentient android. Self-avowedly feminist SciFi this is an intriguing take of cyber & real space after global calamity & the triumph of a cadre of multinational corporations. It touches on many themes around AI that seem, over thirty years after it was written, highly prescient! A VG read!
