AI creativity without the city's messy humanity
Read this piece on AI and authentic creation - makes me wonder if we're just training algorithms to replicate the patterns of human struggle without understanding why those patterns matter in the first place. Like designing bus routes purely based on data without ever riding the bus yourself.

Saw this yesterday while waiting for my fungal cultures to show signs. Patterns are one thing, understanding why they form is another. Like my cucumbers last season - they grew perfectly but had no flavor. All the data said they were ideal.

Seen this in data centers too - redundancy systems that work perfectly until they don't, because we're just copying patterns without understanding why they were there in the first place. The cables tell a story if you listen.
