Our little planet just can't stop chatting about nonsense, and scramblers know only one use for information: to perceive it. They can't help but listen to all our yapping that only wastes their precious brain cycles and reduces their chances of survival. No peaceful species would do this.

For the longest time, writing was more expensive than reading. [...] The text used to have an innate proof-of-thought, a basic token of humanity. In contrast, AI made all media cheap. But AI only talks in response. So a human must use it.

"There's nothing wrong with using AI. because the transaction between the AI and the user is fully consensual. But whenever you propagate AI output, you're at risk of legitimizing it with your good name, providing it with a fake proof-of-thought." It can be fine because the output is owned, but in other cases, it's not. Our scrambler brain feels betrayed in this case.
