Re: <nettime> the destruction is the point.


Hey,

I was surprised – and to be honest, a bit concerned – by the decision to outsource a response to Byfield’s text to an LLM.

Not only does this approach shift the responsibility of reading and thinking to a machine, but the result – a long and meandering output – adds little substance to the discussion.
I'd really prefer if we could agree not to have machines "speak" on our behalf in this list. Especially here, where careful thought and individual perspective matter.

If someone doesn’t have the time to engage directly, that’s fine – but then maybe it's better not to reply at all.

Best,

 Caspar
