I bought this book in paper time ago, put it aside (I bought half a dozen at the same time) and when I finally got to read it, I found out that I had brought the wrong version. Too late to return it...

A question: is any of the currently hot software written also in Lisp? I mean the LLMs, SD, etc.

If you are interested in machine learning, check out Gabor Melis's library: https://github.com/melisgl/mgl. It's not an area I'm super familiar with, so I can't speak to it's feature set, but I believe he used it to win a machine learning competition some years ago.

I don't think anyone's written a transformer or diffusion model with it, could be a fun challenge.
