I see people differently after reading Blindsight; The picture is much darker, concretely more accurate, with what light is there geared to all hell and so much brighter. I'm better for it and at a greater peace.
Eh, I love blindsight, but I really think it oversold the case against consciousness and for belligerent intelligent life.

I quite enjoyed Blindsight, but that was not my takeaway at all :P How do you see people differently after reading it?
