I do not agree, I think the book is much more interesting than the article. For example the type of jobs such as Box Tickers and Flunkies, as well some really interesting anecdotes
Loved the article. Bought the book. I put it down before halfway as it was poorly written longform pagefilling. If it came out today I would totally understand someone calling AI slop on it. "Here's my popular article, re-write it book lenght for me".
