She argues that AI is neither artificial nor intelligent, but rather a material system built from Earth’s rare resources and cheap labor, with severe environmental and human costs. Crawford explores the origins of AI and examines the processes that turn it into a double-edged sword, capable of harming as well as helping humanity. Governments and corporations are using AI to reinforce their power and control, and we must be aware of the pitfalls.

Law And Limit The Architecture...

KIET LE

What if the universe didn't begin with a bang, but with a rule? 
In Law & Limit: The Architecture of the Infinite, independent theorist Kiet Anh Le redefines the origin of existence itself. Every event, every equation, presupposes structure — meaning that Law, not matter or time, is the true beginning of reality. 
Through a blend of logic, mathematics, and metaphysics, Le reveals a profound architecture of being built on three principles: 
Law (Λ) — the totality of consistent relations that make existence possible; 
Existence (E) — the realization of those relations; 
and the Outer Limit (Ωₗ) — the boundary that completes reality without infinite regress. 
Drawing insights from physics, philosophy, and formal reasoning, Law & Limit presents a daring synthesis where logic becomes cosmology and coherence becomes the foundation of all things. It's a philosophical journey beyond spacetime — into the very structure of the infinite.
