The computer is not boring, per se, it's neutral when unplugged. The idea it accelerates binary primarily for prediction purposes in extracting values from the arbitrary, this is not only exciting, it's illusory.

The writer fails to grasp what rabbit hole we've gone down since the 70s/90s when we began applying the principles of prediction to computation, then horizontalized them via web. This was the most exciting time because it added a vast illusory value to the arbitrary, it's a time of massive piracy that posed as corporatocracy.

Once this prediction became automated by AI, yes, now the piracy becomes boring, and in turn reveals what was going on all along.
