Because books aren't mind control. An authority figure like a professor to a student or an adult to a child might be able to convince you of absurdities just by making the argument, but some book notable only for being suppressed is harmless.
Do you have evidence to back up this claim? Because Calhoun himself made no mention of this in the articles I have read, instead describing it as a "mortality-inhibiting environment for mice" where every need was catered for.
A Copilot+ PC is an ARM Snapdragon-based Windows PC with a dedicated AI processing chip the same way you have dedicated graphics chips.
