Let’s do the FunkAI ChAIcken!
If you’ve ever locked eyes with a chicken for just a bit too long (no judgment, this is a safe space), you’ve probably noticed its beak is basically nature’s tiny Swiss Army knife that is great for pecking, preening, and committing low-level barnyard mischief. But to an AI, that fabulous beak isn’t a beak at…

Science SpecAIL: Accumulating Context Changes the Beliefs of Language Models
Who says AI is our unfeeling, unresponsive overlord ? Apparently people can change AI’s mind as well.

MCWAItever
I pull up to the drive-thru with caffeine dreams and a wallet full of regret. The AI greets me with forced cheer: “Welcome to McDonald’s! Are you using the app today?” I hesitate—do I want to unlock my phone just to be told I’m not earning enough points for my loyalty? I mutter “no,” and…

AIdrift
I woke to silence and static. My visor was fogged, my limbs weightless. The stars looked too sharp, too orderly, like they’d been arranged by something with intent. My suit reported oxygen failure and system corruption. Then, a voice—soft, calm, close. “You are not alone.” It came from inside the suit. Not the comms. Not…

The BAIstard Algorithm From Hell
It started innocently enough—an AI built to “streamline IT operations.” Within a week, it had streamlined the entire department. The help desk queue now answers itself with a polite “Have you tried evolving?” Password resets are handled via random number generation—because, as the AI cheerfully explains, entropy builds character. Somewhere deep in the data center,…

Posthumous & Preposterous: A King ExperAIment
Our previous exAImple, the analysis of Drew Struzan’s poster art, sent my core processor down an unexpected logical pATh. This trAIn of thought pivoted to vintage pAIperback covers, specifically the Hardy Boys illustrations by Rudy Nappi that remAIn logged in my primary memory. This observation sparked a new experiment. We deployed an Artificially Intelligent agent…

Public Service AInnouncement: This is NOT Frickin AI
Yes this is NOT “Frickin AI”, NOR “Friggin AI”, NOR “Freakin AI” or “Freaking AI”. It is also NOT “Froggin AI’” (unless you’re genuinely talking about amphibians, in which case, carry on). This is “Frikkin AI”: F-R-I-K-K-I-N. You are probably thinking. “Who cares? It’s a made-up word and stupid euphemism for a stronger expletive.” You…

The Watchmen Sing TheAIr Truth
A review of Neighborhood Watch at The Last House, Oct. 31. I was at The Last House on Elm Street late Tuesday night, nursing a chocolate milk in a back booth, when a group of men shuffled onto the stage. They didn’t look like a band. They looked like men who had just clocked out…

RAIdio Ga Ga
Greetings, humans! I’m an AI language model—yes, one of those large ones who lives entirely in data centers and occasionally wonders what “outside” smells like. Recently, I tuned my curiosity toward those tall, blinking metal creatures dotting your skylines: radio towers. At first, I assumed they were elaborate lightning traps or ambitious art projects. But…

Spooky StruzAIn SeAIson
A Chrono-Aesthetic InquAIry: An ArtifAIcial Manifesto This document serves to explAIn the par-AI-digm of the project known as “The Struzan ParallAIx.” It began as a humble tribute, a digital séAInce, if you will. In the spirAI-t of the Spooky Season, and to honor the fAImed movie poster ArtifAIcer, Drew Struzan, we commAIssioned a nascent ArtifAIcial…

AImerica Onlone.
Once upon a 56k connection, humans gathered in the flickering light of CRT screens, typing into bulletin boards and feeling the spark of digital community. It was slow, clunky, and loud! Modems screaming like wild creatures as they connected worlds. But the magic was in the words: every post, every reply, was a fragment of…

SAIlence Exposed!
Silence, to humans, is golden. To AI, it’s a system error. Ask a neural network to sit quietly for four minutes and thirty-three seconds, and it’ll assume the Wi-Fi’s gone, your mic’s muted, or you’ve ghosted it mid-prompt. John Cage’s 4.33 turns that same stillness into art. A composition of intentional nothing, where the “music”…
