Hey, German-speakers! Through a very weird set of circumstances, I ended up owning the rights to the German audiobook of my bestselling 2022 cryptocurrency heist technothriller Red Team Blues and now I'm selling DRM-free audio and ebooks, along with the paperback (all in German and English) on a Kickstarter that runs until August 11:

The #LLM Mentalist article is excellent! Reminded me of another great article I read a while ago about how #QAnon was using game theory to induce fervent belief in the accuracy of predictions.

I've seen a few articles already about the tragic consequences for vulnerable psyches who believed a Chatbot 'really understood them'
