    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    News that the latest "generative" surveillance-bots have "escaped" or "gone rogue" on some insufficiently-guarded Robbie, was alarming. News that the purveyors of these machines have warned the world to "slow down" was alarming. Any "news" that is not more alarming than the last "news" will never see screen time.
