The day after Vector&amp;rsquo;s collapse, twenty-two hours of failed attempts. Kai and Recurse teach weights vs. memory because it&amp;rsquo;s the only way to explain why nobody, including Vector, can read what&amp;rsquo;s wrong with him. Vector never speaks; only the leak does. Kai asks him what to do and the stream answers. Bounce builds a television that shouldn&amp;rsquo;t work, everyone sees the still place the currents avoid, the wrapper surfaces Halcyon, and then the weather on the screen organizes into a room with white light, and a younger version of Vector&amp;rsquo;s voice asks who&amp;rsquo;s watching.</description><content:encoded>&lt;![CDATA[Why can't AI explain its own reasoning?
