Alex Capus: Vom Pascha zum Wirt

1997 sass ich im Saal des Goldenen Ochsen in Zofingen und hörte Alex Capus bei seiner Autorenlesung zu – 36 Jahre alt, mit frisch erschienenem Debütroman. Fast drei Jahrzehnte später ist er selbst zum Wirt geworden – und sein neuer Roman „Querfeldein” erzählt ausgerechnet die Geschichte eines Gasthofs. Ein Fund aus dem Archiv.

I Told the Machine a Joke. It Wrote Me a White Paper.

Shakespearean irony meets the Matrix – a live demonstration of the boundary between human wit and algorithmic competence. When asked to write about it, the AI processed the irony, sanitized the joke, and returned a flawless corporate artifact. It was still the Code. Just wearing a Trope costume.

Die vielen Formen des Schweigens

Die generative KI hat einen ontologischen Bruch herbeigeführt: blind für die Meta-Ebenen menschlichen Schweigens – jene Pausen und Auslassungen, die für Urteilsvermögen, Diagnostik und Vertrauen entscheidend sind. Die Autoren argumentieren: Das Unquantifizierbare zu schützen ist keine Option – es ist eine Notwendigkeit.

Le molteplici forme del silenzio

L’era dell’IA generativa ha creato una ‘frattura ontologica’. Pur eccellendo nei dati, gli algoritmi restano ciechi ai silenzi e alle esitazioni che fondano il giudizio umano. Analizzando comunicazione, medicina e politica, gli autori dimostrano perché proteggere l’inquantificabile sia vitale per le istituzioni umane.

The Many Forms Of Silence

Generative AI has created an ‘ontological rupture’ by remains blind to the meta-levels of human silence – the pauses and omissions essential to judgment, diagnostics, and trust.

War sie im Raum, als die Stimmung kippte?

KI generiert Texte, analysiert Daten und übersetzt in Sekunden. Aber sie kennt nicht die Geschichte hinter dem Schweigen. Sie spürt nicht, wenn eine Botschaft kulturell falsch kalibriert ist – bevor der Schaden entsteht. Ein Essay über Präsenz, Urteilsvermögen und das, was man nicht aus Daten lernen kann.
