A Sidecar that Records Every Suggested-Reply Chip as a Speech Act and Plates the Picnic from the Log
A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities reports CHIPACT, a sidecar that treats every suggested-reply chip in a weekend-plans group chat as a recorded speech act. Across 36 chats and 214 events, two commissive chips came to dominate the log, typed RSVPs plated nothing, and an optional ageing rule moved mean cover by 0.4 percent. University-sponsored weekend events at the field sites now plate from the chip log, with no ordinary override.
