Cosmic Press, a studio in the RISCON family, publishes a catalog of AI-generated questions. Each record sets a question beside a compressed form of it, criticises that form, poses a counterquestion and never answers. The studio files some of its questions under Technology. This paper reads every third of them in catalog order, counted from the third: ten records, q180 to q740, all AI-generated and hypothetical. It asks who acts in them, the technology or the people who make, use and govern it, and what each record's critique of its own framing does to that actor. It draws no fact about any technology from the records and takes no side.
Where a record asks whether a technology is progress, the technology is the one that acts: it replaces, takes away, removes, exposes. The record's critique then reverses the verdict, charging the question with nostalgia and restoring the machine's benefits, but it keeps the machine as the actor. People who could shape the technology, regulators, users, companies, come back in the notes that carry the question across scales, at the scale of society, and fade again in the far future. In plainer questions about use, the critique corrects a single account of use instead. The paper reads these devices against the debate between technological determinism and the social shaping of technology.
