2010 : odyssée deux

Clarke's vision of the monoliths as catalysts for human progress is fascinating. I'm curious whether this was inspired by real scientific theories or purely fictional imagination.

The conclusion raises questions about humanity's next steps and our place in the cosmos. It’s a mix of inspiration and unease that stuck with me long after reading.

Given how fast tech evolves, I wonder if Clarke's ideas about machine intelligence and consciousness still feel relevant or a bit prophetic now.
