ΛISTU started as a techno-optimist newsletter.
We believed the breakthroughs.
We covered the cures, the satellites.
We covered the robots doing heroic things
in burning buildings.
Then we started reading the footnotes.
ΛISTU is now a publication about AI and culture, which is another way of saying it's about what this stuff actually does once it's inside the building.
How it behaves when it's wired into institutions.
How it's quietly rearranging who has power and how they talk about it.
We used to summarize the press releases. Now we're more interested in everything they're trying to edit out, and what it looks like when the people who might end the world still have to make their quarterly numbers.
