I work in #infosec and consider myself pretty well educated on what’s happening with #AI. But I’m about 33% of the way through @emilymbender@dair-community.social and Alex Hanna’s book, “The AI Con”, and I’ve really learned a lot more. If you’re skeptical or curious about AI, this is a must-read. I’m recommending it to everyone I know. #books #bookstodon #reading #AI #technology #nonfiction

The Conduct of Politics by Fabian Wendt, 2026 Do politicians have to get dirty hands - and what does that mean? Is it okay to be corrupt, when corruption is systemic? When is it a good thing to make compromises in politics? These are questions about political conduct that are raised in political ethics, a somewhat underappreciated subfield of political philosophy. #books #nonfiction #PoliticalPhilosophy #PoliticalEthics #politics

"The Wreck of the Mentor: A True Story of Death, Despair, and Deliverance in the Age of Sail" by Eric Jay Dolin. My rating: 4 out of 5 stars. Published in 2026. Book description: This is the story of the American whaleship Mentor, wrecked in 1832 on a remote reef in the western Pacific. With supplies dwindling, the eleven surviving crewmen face not only the miseries of shipwreck in unfamiliar territory but also the profound uncertainty of contact with the Indigenous people of the Micronesian archipelago of Palau. In this gripping saga of cultural collision, tribal wars, and dashed hopes, award–winning historian Eric Jay Dolin vividly reconstructs the Mentor’s doomed voyage, the years of perilous captivity, and the delicate negotiations and fraught naval rescue mission that followed. #nonfiction #history #sailing #captivity #books @bookstodon@fedigroups.social
