SUMMARY:👁️ Intelligence History Reading Group: 'The Mission: The CIA in the 21st Century' by Tim Weiner (1st half)
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday\, August 20th at 7 p.m. for a discussion on the first half of The Mission: The CIA in the 21st Century by Tim Weiner (2025). \nAt the turn of the century\, the Central Intelligence Agency was in crisis. The end of the Cold War had robbed the agency of its mission. More than thirty overseas stations and bases had been shuttered\, and scores that remained had been severely cut back. Many countries where surveillance was once deemed crucial went uncovered. Essential intelligence wasn’t being collected. At the dawn of the information age\, the CIA’s officers and analysts worked with outmoded technology\, struggling to distinguish the clear signals of significant facts from the cacophony of background noise. \nThen came September 11th\, 2001. After the attacks\, the CIA transformed itself into a lethal paramilitary force\, running secret prisons and brutal interrogations\, mounting deadly drone attacks\, and all but abandoning its core missions of espionage and counterespionage. The consequences were grave: the deaths of scores of its recruited foreign agents\, the theft of its personnel files by Chinese spies\, the penetration of its computer networks by Russian intelligence and American hackers\, and the tragedies of Afghanistan and Iraq. A new generation of spies now must fight the hardest targets—Moscow\, Beijing\, Tehran—while confronting a president who has attacked the CIA as a subversive force.  \nFrom Pulitzer Prize winner Tim Weiner\, The Mission tells the gripping\, high-stakes story of the CIA through the first quarter of the twenty-first century\, revealing how the agency fought to rebuild the espionage powers it lost during the war on terror—and finally succeeded in penetrating the Kremlin. The struggle has life-and-death consequences for America and its allies. The CIA must reclaim its original mission: know thy enemies. The fate of the free world hangs in the balance.  \nA masterpiece of reporting\, The Mission includes exclusive on-the-record interviews with six former CIA directors\, the top spymaster\, thirteen station chiefs\, and scores of top operations officers who served undercover for decades and have never spoken to a journalist before.

SUMMARY:⚙️ Neo-Luddite Reading Group: 'Empire of AI' by Karen Hao
DESCRIPTION:➡️ Virtual Meetup Link\nDiscord: Email neoluddite@victorgom.es for an invite! \nFull schedule: victorgom.es/neoluddite \nIf you’re joining for the first time\, I’d suggest you read this before anything else for brief context: What the Luddites Really Fought Against by Richard Conniff.The only expectation is that you read the chapter(s) of the book that’s listed for that meeting. You’re still welcome to participate if you haven’t done the readings as long as you are mindful. For each chapter\, I’ve also noted some optional readings for context\, so I’d suggest checking those out rather than reading ahead in the book. And remember\, if you ever find yourself struggling with any of the readings or concepts\, reach out! Either directly to me over email or to the entire group over discord.
