"...the task of good governance is neither to avoid popular revolution nor to provoke popular revolution. The task of good governance is to manage popular revolution. To, in a word, govern it. A society in which revolution burned brushfire-like out of control would be a catastrophe. And a society in which revolution was permanently stifled would be a sterile and stagnant place. You think... that the current state of affairs is not a revolution? You think that AI is not Lenin at the Finland Station?"

Adam Roberts, The Real-Town Murders (2017)

OK, now that is officially my favourite metaphor of the month - possibly the YEAR. AI is Lenin at the Finland Station..... BEYOND brilliant!
