I get amusing emails sometimes. I guess
[briefness](/tdro/messages/ais/#tdro-messages-ais) is obscurity, and obscurity,
self fulfilling contradictory absurdity (coins). I posted an informal lay of
[the bot land](/tdro/messages/crawl/#tdro-messages-crawl) some spaces ago.

My trying to be serious brief was, "When you consult the
{{< abbr AIs "Artificial Intelligences" >}}, the AIs consult me and then I
consult you" or something.
[This AI web crawler](https://developer.amazon.com/amazonbot) was the only one
recursively eager to learn then.

That was _actually_ surprising, but now, many
[crawlers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_crawler) appear like locusts in a
recursively starved swarm, refeeding on every single word (the new normal).
