Oblivious Compute: Still Consensus?

Oblivious compute proposes that computation can reside in the relation between independent observers.

The interesting question isn't whether the nodes converge, the question is what type of computation are we even looking at?

Bad case of AI-ism?

This is written as it is some sort of a great invention, but seems to lack of actual "meat" - I don't see any novel algorithms or ideas there, just some basic replicated data structures, even simpler than CRDTs or blockchain's network consensus.

But there is tons of pseudo-philosophy, making up new terms, and trying to make a it sound deep and mysterious.

Author: if you want to be taken seriously, add one-page intro about (1) what is the problem you are solving, (2) how are you solving it, and (3) what are the alternatives and how is your thing better than them. And (3) is especially important here, it's the difference between clueless person bamboozled by AI and someone who is actually familiar with the field.
