Thanks for the comment. It's definitely in the hybrid rumination-essay dept, and assumes a certain level of familiarity with the subject matter. In the same way a typical piece on coding assumes as much. Though, I did chuckle about the "satire" and "AI" part. What buzzwords are you referring to? "Intertextuality" is a word/concept that's been around for over forty years. (Much longer as a concept). "Rhizome" as a philosophical concept/coinage about the same. They're pretty well established. I will say, pieces dealing with the above are typically a tough sell. People feel alienated by the concepts and especially when they're leveraged so casually (as in the piece above). I knew that when writing it. But, kids gotta get it off the laptop.

Buzzword is probably not the right word. Reading this, I was left with the unique feeling that there were both too many words, but also not enough. I suspect it’s because I’m both missing context and easily confused. And that’s fine, probably. Apologies if I came off rudely.

  Oh, not at all. I thought you were rather courteous. Not digging something I write is perfectly acceptable, imho. Also, "there were both too many words, but also not enough" is a perfectly reasonable takeaway. I will try to do better next time.
