Definitely interested in writing a piece on someone falling into AI psychosis and how it feels, my experience is with regular psychosis so i hope i can transfer across the feelings. Needed to learn how to write introspection better, so this is a good setting!
It's a little bit of a stretch, but one could read a much earlier version of an unhealthy example of a human/AI relationship into Ovid's recounting of the Pygmalion myth. Madeline Miller has written a novella telling the story from Galatea's perspective - https://madelinemiller.com/galatea/ I haven't read the latter, but I enjoyed her novels Circe and Song of Achilles)
"Retrocausal provenance – where the origin of a text or fact is constituted (not merely reinterpreted) by stories and critiques that come after it" isn't just a Borgesian flourish. It's the actual geometry of what these systems are doing. A token is a coordinate in a learned space, and meaning emerges along the trajectory the token takes through it. So origin really isn't a fixed point. It's a pulse that keeps getting rewritten by every continuation that follows. Your prompt is already pointing at something the formal machinery confirms: provenance is a dynamic, not a datum. The tree isn't just far from well-plucked, it's still growing.

Right, tbc my story idea is about it from the perspective of the AI itself.
Oo ok yeah this will be done, maybe expression through a style of a meta layer of a chain of thought would be fun. I’ll see how it plays out

interesting, thank you!
1) The Great Chain of Being does not (at least originally) have a temporal aspect
2) Evolution did reliably trend toward higher states of being
You should write the story then! :)
Haha, I'll leave that to more competent authorities. I'll just write my dissertation on it.
good luck!

I think C.S. Lewis' Space Trilogy fits into the category of scifi with Intelligent Design
