Huh, maybe this distills some anxiety (?) I have about the proliferation of non-disclosed AI text. It used to be the Internet, and human communication in general, was a way to access a specific "edge case" representing the contents of a single human's brain. Now it feels like we're converging on an average of how everyone prior to 2023 thought and wrote.

Stuff like https://brr.fyi - something about the combination of content, writing style, and pictures are just magical.

		Good observation. I actually interpreted it as a techie, who would write a script to handle some mundane sysadmin task and thereby found the odd piece of data that broke it, and had to be handled separately. But I agree on the philosophical point. We are unique for good reason. We are the "observers" who create this universe, and not webcams. Not yet, anyway.
