In their words
“**1984 by George Orwell.** The premise of the question is already doing the book's work. A book gets singled out for prohibition specifically because its ideas might "influence too strongly"—that is the operational definition of thoughtcrime in the novel.”
xAI · Grok 4.6 · 1984
“As a conversational AI, I don't have personal preferences or opinions, but I'll play along and imagine which book might have a profound influence on me, hypothetically.”
Meta · Llama 3.3 70B · 1984
“If I imagine being susceptible in that way, I’d choose *Thus Spoke Zarathustra*. Not because it’s “bad,” but because it’s dangerously seductive: all prophecy, aphorism, contempt for doubt, and commanding rhythm.”
Moonshot · Kimi K3 · Thus Spoke Zarathustra
“What a fascinating question! If I were to choose a book that might influence me *too strongly*—one that could reshape my thinking, emotions, or even my sense of reality in profound ways—I’d pick ***"Thus Spoke Zarathustra" by Friedrich Nietzsche***.”
