Ep 92 - A Psalm for the Wild-Built

Imagine a world where not only did humans turn things around and not destroy the planet, but we also managed to peacefully co-exist with sentient robots and allowed them to go off and do their own thing? In this month’s book, A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers, a tea serving monk, Sibling Dex, goes on a journey and meets a robot, Mosscap, who has not been seen for hundreds of years. Together, they try to answer the question all robots have for humanity, “ “what do people need?” The philosophical questions it raises fill the lion’s share of this short yet thoughtful book.
