Summary

In tonight’s HERE COMES THE BACKKLASH: Poolhouse delivers a wandering Takecel transmission through AI, creativity, collapsing meaning, secret star systems, data centers, and the strange new reality where machines uncannily mirror reality itself.. Part cybernetic apologia, part psychic weather report, Poolhouse touches down from his radiotronic realm beyond the static veil to ask whether or not AI critics are even asking the right questions about technology writ large. On the implications of physical handwriting vs typing: NYT : Utah Faces “Environmental Nuclear Bomb” (2022) — no, its not data centers.
