Quality is evident immediately from the lead story on Noema: "A Parliament of Earthlings". Fascinating read for a Sunday morning on AI efforts to enhance whale conservation (with plenty of knowing nods to Star Trek IV). At least the first half of the article felt that way. But instead the article just sort of devolves into a rolling argument for a "Gaia 2.0" hypothesis. Curious, I delved a bit deeper. And what I found is a kind of supremacy of faith in our ability to delivery planet-scale geoengineering. Terraforming Planet Earth, in a nutshell ;)
