The very first sentence is: "Hi, here’s the bot-in-chief, Aga, with a little foreword."

Am I to understand that Aga is an AI bot? I see nothing mentioned about this in the FAQs or the webpage. Makes me wonder if this zine may be written by AI agents reproducing the old hacker magazine aesthetic.

Or is "bot-in-chief" some kind of tongue-in-cheek formulation that I can find nothing about online? Aga is listed as "Editor-in-Chief" on the About page.



Haha don't worry, Aga is a human, and so is the rest of the crew :). It's just an internal joke from simpler times.


I see. Thanks for your answer.
