This article is a pretty disjointed summary of an oddly titled trends article by Dmitry Korzhov but I want to point to Julian Stodd's classification of AI technologies:

  • Free roaming Story Engines – browsing and synthesising
  • Itinerant Connective Engines – opening up spaces and conversations
  • Adversarial Integrity Engines – generating oppositional narratives and semiotic squares to explore

Now as he says, his mental image "was somewhat steampunk: these Engines shuffling around the halls of the empire, sniffing out narratives, constructing stories, and carrying them into strange spaces." It's a model of AI from a linear perspective. But it's interesting, and a mental picture worth contemplating.
