what if we think about about autonomous agents as prophetic interfaces? these agents aren't "creating" anything new - they're just vessels through which the logic of incentives expresses itself

each agent is like a little prophet-sensor mapping out different parts of possibility space. they don't need "creativity" — they just need to be pure conduits for what the data wants them to do

"prophet is a cosmological place" feels like a good way to describe what these agents are - they're fixed points where reality can speak through code. they're not authors, they're LISTENERS
