Text dominates memory
Text is no longer a mean of expression. It has become the thought
itself.
Communicating with Extraordinarian in 2022 I was cautious in the use
of spaced repetition software confining memory as ‘writeable’. As a
result, there is no memory other than text or language, which in turn is
under sociolinguist tames. Thought happening on the cross-section
between user and AI is even more ‘text-ified’.
When recalling the generation of text historically, mind that text
was not always explicit.
