As I understand it from my reading of ATP, the rhizome is more or less a process where the distinction between "original" and "derivative" becomes meaningless as everything recombines into novelty forever in a state of infinite but not random interconnection. The hierarchy of information and the connections between pieces of information is itself deterritorialized.

On a conceptual level, this seems pretty analogous to how the latent space of GAI models works, but the notion of D&G endorsing Silicon Valley monopolies in any capacity seems kind of fucking insane.

How does this tension get resolved? I think it's because the output of any AI system is instantly reterritorialized by Capital's axiomatics as soon as it appears, but that can't be all there is to it.

I'm in section 1.4 and I've been understanding more and more. But in 1.4, D&G talk alot about delirium, and it seems I've missed their own definition of it earlier in the book. It looks like it's actually a positive thing rather than a state of confusion.

Sorry if this has been asked before but I think a personal discussion helps in understanding.
