This book represents the exact criticism of the real book,
This is just a nice summary, narrated by AI (pretty impressive tho)

A brief simulation

This was a good overview, and gave you enough information if you want to explore the actual book, the AI generated narration was pretty good, I would say it was worth three dollars

Simulacra for sure

The topic was amazing, especially today. Just very short. I would have liked more. It was like an appetizer. I'm not full.

The concept is very useful in this day and age.

Lots of bad reviews because this is just a summary or not the full book.... it's not claiming to be .... it's good for what it claims to be and is. Ai narration voice isn't bad either imo, obviously I think real voices would nicer but this isn't bad

It's a good Summary of the Idea/Concept

Really this boils down to a recycling of Platos Forms with extra steps. Not nearly the original ideas I was hoping for.

Plato by any other name
