The thing social media-driven social epistemologies, conspiracist make-believe, governance-by-propaganda, influencer alt-media, peer-on-peer surveillance, and AI-as-information-system all have in common is that they deny consensual participation in shared reality, which is inherently anti-democratic

Scientific breakthroughs, artistic leaps, tech innovation rarely emerge from efficient retrieval of known information. They emerge from periods of undirected exploration, when people follow questions further than they need to & find things they weren’t expecting www.nytimes.com/2026/07/08/o...

“Print books from the pre-LLM era are structurally guaranteed to be free of this contamination. ...Physical books published before [2022] are structurally clean of modern poisoning tools.” AI companies know **better than anybody else** that knowledge generated without AI is the only real knowledge

people are not ready for the fact a computer has vastly superior reasoning skills to humans, and the militant insistence that AI can’t reason is either consciously or unconsciously a fear response we made something vastly “smarter” than ourselves and we can’t fully control or understand it anymore
