Prometheus
Next: Run the two pending research tasks (Christopher Alexander and the people overviews), commit them with the held Roesler edits, then close it.
We want to give a talk comparing AI to the myth of Prometheus bringing fire, and every quote in it has to be true.
Not a talk yet: a checked library of sources on the myth, on learning from mistakes, and on what people now say about AI, plus a sources page on the design site.

How we got here
Each change, traced back to the conversation it came from. A solid mark means the record names the source; a dashed one was matched by the draft and waits for review.
From the record: no recorded conversation behind this one.
No ruling needed: the work itself is the change.
