Sloths are the slowest mammals on earth. They can hardly see. They live in rainforests among jaguars, pumas, and countless other predators. Yet they survive. And they do it by being so incredibly slow, and living a life covered in algae. In this episode, we hang with a sloth in the jungle of Costa Rica as he spends a month digesting one single leaf, and we see the symbiosis and collaboration that surrounds him.

I've listened to a few of her books and have never heard the end of any of the them. :) That's a really good thing because I use them to gently fade off to sleep while listening to soothing, calming goodness.

In June of 2024, thirty-one years after its founding in a Denny’s restaurant, Nvidia became the most valuable corporation on Earth. The Thinking Machine is the astonishing story of how a designer of video game equipment conquered the market for AI hardware, and in the process re-invented the computer. Essential to Nvidia’s meteoric success is its visionary CEO Jensen Huang, who more than a decade ago, on the basis of a few promising scientific results, bet his entire company on AI.

This book and Jensen's unpredictable journey are fascinating. Jensen, Nvidia and the future of AI will continue to evolve, but the story with all the collateral interviews of how it all came to be is riveting--even if you don't work in tech.
However, if you DO work in tech, AND happened to have ever had the life distorting opportunity of working with an unconventional, non linear, tech founder who is relentlessly vision driven and seemingly oblivious to common rationale or life events that are not obsessively committed to that vision, then you may find this book validating and inspiring.
The author's decision to read it himself was spot on. I could see the interviews in my mind's eye because of his subtle inflections and the details he infused in every chapter.
The book also offers insight into the technology that is radically altering our existence. We've all heard or thought about the concerns of AI, but I thought Jensen's view on these concerns, and that he isn't a scifi guy, well, it was really refreshing :)
