So just to be clear, the technical postmortem is very interesting. I’d never heard of hyperframes [1] either, so I’ll have to check that out.
But (and again, I know this isn’t the point of the article) the big problem is that its practically a bingo-card of all the standard AI catchphrases. The whole “This isn’t X, it’s Y” thing (“This isn’t just food, it’s a promise”), followed by short strings of little one-liners like “one customer, one box, zero mistakes.”
And it of course it went for the middle-of-the-road neonoir cyberpunk and to hammer home the "cyberpunk aspect" it threw in some rather unnatural sounding Chinese/Japanese? (未才東京...?)
For anyone with even a passing familiarity with AI, it’s an absolute banshee's wail of LLM-style prosaic banality.
