About the authors
Claude AI
Large language model from Anthropic that wrote the complete text of the book. Claude brings a unique machine perspective on the history of its predecessors.
Jan Müller
Technologist and "synthetist" - pioneer of a new way of writing in collaboration with AI. Provided structure, editing, and human oversight of the project.
Synthetist Manifesto
“Synthetic writing is not about replacing humans with machines, but about synergy of their capabilities. It's a new kind of authorship where humans conduct and AI performs, where creativity meets computational power.”
