Robots? Why Robots?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a ques\u00adtion I keep ask\u00ading myself. If I remem\u00adber cor\u00adrect\u00adly, it wasn\u2019t even my idea. Night\u00adCaf\u00e9 intro\u00adduced it: the plat\u00adform con\u00adve\u00adnient\u00adly sug\u00adgests prompts that users might enjoy\u2014ready to use, and per\u00adfect\u00adly designed to help main\u00adtain one\u2019s streak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Streaks<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are, in many ways, a clever mech\u00ada\u00adnism to keep cre\u00adative minds engaged: a sys\u00adtem that rewards con\u00adsis\u00adtent, dai\u00adly par\u00adtic\u00adi\u00adpa\u00adtion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so, robots it is. I can\u00adnot seem to escape them. They encap\u00adsu\u00adlate so much: the humanoid machine, the suf\u00adfer\u00ading sen\u00adtient being, the super\u00adin\u00adtel\u00adli\u00adgent enti\u00adty strand\u00aded in a dystopi\u00adan land\u00adscape. In a way, are they not reflec\u00adtions of our\u00adselves? And per\u00adhaps, pro\u00adjec\u00adtions of what lies ahead?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or is that too much to read into it? Per\u00adhaps. \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He is a walk\u00ading library. But now the world has end\u00aded and no one will write anoth\u00ader book any\u00admore. Pity him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
