What if, in a time of infinity content, a meta-reading of the shape
and feel of content has become a survival skill? What if we thought
about generative AI more as an expression of an epochal shift in
human communication than a root cause? More than transmitting
specific information, “content”—whether a mukbang video or this
3600 word essay—is now foremost a conductor of “vibes.”
