TJ Jung
Every instruction is a coded message. Its meaning depends on the decoder, memory, tools, environment, and path to action.Canton Sea develops a practical theory for tracing that path. Across thirty-eight short chapters, TJ Jung uses films, games, music, biology, sales, and software to show how intent survives handoffs between people, models, machines, and interfaces.The book began inside a working AI research system. Its concepts were named under pressure, tested against failures, and compressed until a small signal could recover a large body of shared context.How small can a command become before context disappears? What must remain inspectable when the interface vanishes? Where does identity live when every component of the chain can change?
