My recent book AI and Consciousness: A Skeptical Overview is free online today and tomorrow (through Oct 19, presumably UK time). I don't think the hard copy is available yet. Get it while it's free! www.cambridge.org/core/element...

So sorry for this news, Eric. I’m reading a good psychology book right now from Steven Hayes, the founder of ACT therapy. I highly recommend it for some perspective if you are looking for it. Wishing you the best. www.amazon.com/Liberated-Mi...

Wow, Eric, really sorry to hear this. So impossible to predict and difficult to handle. Hang in there, I hope you're doing okay.
