Readers can expect to find plentiful references to a panoply of prominent members of the Silicon Valley establishment, alongside American and world political leaders, Hollywood celebrities, pop stars, corporate mascots, fictional entities, virtual assistants, and other notable writers, directors, scholars, social media influencers, deities, angels, and demons.
