I Built a Book
February 2026
In April 2025, I started listening to podcasts. 500+ hours later, I had a book.
The AI Renaissance: How a Programmer, a CEO, and a Professor Built the Foundation for Modern AI
Three people who never met built the same cathedral.
John Carmack pushed video games so hard he created demand for graphics hardware nobody knew they'd need. Jensen Huang bet Nvidia on parallel computing a decade before anyone wanted it. Geoffrey Hinton kept neural networks alive for over forty years while everyone else abandoned them.
In October 2012, their threads converged. Everything since — ChatGPT, the AI race, the world we're living in — flows from that moment.
This is the origin story I couldn't find anywhere. So I wrote it.
