Overview
Human judgement in an age of intelligent machines.
Thucydides bet that human nature would hold steady. Nietzsche pulled the floor out.
Now history has new actors, and they are not human.
We are becoming children of the magenta line. Machines feed on their own output. No tyrant designed this. Commerce simply went to autopilot, and the exits are closing behind us.
The Algorithm and the Oracle follows the fall from Athens to the age of AI, and asks what only human judgement can still do.
Still your call. For now.
