What seems truly astounding, to me, is that many of Asimov's works were non-fiction. These books take lots of reading, and research, to write. I could understand him writing endless volumes of fiction -- which need only an educated imagination and a writing tool -- but to write THOROUGHLY RESEARCHED factual books at such a blistering pace is simply incredible.
@GH-oi2jf7 ай бұрын
To me, writing many works of fiction is the more impressive feat. Asimov’s nonfiction works on subjects in science are for the general reader who is interested in science, so not highly technical. For a person of his education (PhD in biochemistry), the material would be easy, and the advantage of a nonfiction subject is that the organization of the work follows naturally from the thing under consideration. A few of his nonfiction works would have required more research and time than average, such as his two-volume treatise on The Bible.

I think the genius of Asimov is something that will be appreciated by future generations in a way that you and I can never get to see in our short lifetimes? I think he had a plan, like his character Hari Seldon, in the Foundation series? Think about it? Have you read his books on physics? Have you read his annotations on the Bible? What Christian scholar is likely to read that, from an atheist and then site it in a paper they want the Vatican’s scholarship to take seriously? He was a Renaissance man, writing so eclectically, with a plan in mind. Like so many other writers who were never fully appreciated in their own lifetimes, he knew that the discoveries of later ages would vindicate much of his work. And he knew that being prolific on as many topics as possible would make him accessible to the widest possible audience. His name will become like that of Socrates, Einstein or Descartes. His plan was to be like Hardin; to plan for a future beyond his own lifetime, by many generations; but instead of shepherding humanity toward a goal, he will become a great philosopher, to whom so many people look back and remember as one of planet Earth’s greatest minds. Most of the greatest writers never even knew success in their own lifetimes. And of those who did, very few could have foreseen their worldwide influence. I think he planned for something greater than you and I will live to see?

Relevant to the political climate of today, Asimov was a socialist who saw the societal impact of robots/automation from the viewpoint of the worker and suggested ways for society to help workers retrain and refocus their skills toward endeavors which would not be easily be automated. Further he recognized that there would be a segment of society that would not be employable....and offered ideas to help them live fulfilling lives as well. These problems remain today, and there are not enough people like Asimov asking tough questions and trying to come up with solutions for them. The focus is instead on making profits and short term gains....the future and sustainability be damned.

Is that the name of Asimov’s character who conceived the Foundation? If so, I think you’ve nailed it. Not only did he plan it, but he told us about it, by depicting a fictionalised version of his plan. The difference being that Asimov didn’t (to our current knowledge?) plan to shepherd humanity through its evolution of interstellar growth, demise and refounding, but he did know that he would be rediscovered, many generations from now. He planned to have his name become known to future generations in the way that we think of Socrates, Montaigne and Einstein today. All it takes is one scholar, say, writing their thesis for a paper in the Vatican, who comes across an oddity and says, “The Complete Annotations of the Christian Bible, by an atheist? How odd? Computer, tell me of any other works by this author and what category he was known for?” And when the computer tells him there are over 500 books and twice as many articles, written by the same man, and that there is no category to which they can be assigned? . . . There are as many potential ways for his name to become referenced and talked about, as there are categories of disciplines and artistic expression. How can he NOT be the preeminent Renaissance Man of the 20th Century, who’s name will become a household word, to generations not yet conceived? . . . Now, that’s genius, right?

There is always a catastrophe to deal with, and always looming disasters. In the midst of it all, our behavior alone usually the worst thing we have to deal with and somehow navigate.

Not entirely how he saw it, no. Robots have supplemented a lot of the labour of humans, rather than replaced it. However, it's been a lot more difficult to build truly intelligent machines and refined robotic capable of replacing humans in a lot of areas. Any variation or judgement call in a task adds a layer of complexity that can cripple our most advanced robotics. I think we're still on the cusp of a true labour replacement. This is something that's going to start slow and then snowball quite quickly.

But he was correct about jobs being lost. We as an American society, did not address the up coming problems like we should have. Now we have homeless people in our cities, jobless people, working poor with 3 jobs to make ends meet. The free market didn't address all these issues as promised. Sad. Mr. Asimov would be very disappointed to see what happened in 2019.
