Rules
1. The Amazing Digital Circus is a place to be enjoyed by all ages
Okay, a little profanity is fine, the internet is 13+, but do keep it tame. Obviously no slurs or hate speech or anything like that. Also no NSFW/adult content.
2. Don't make me tap the signs
Let's be a good fandom. No need to get in fights over what show is better, or ship is superior, or what theory is correct, or anything like that. You don't have to agree with everything posted here and some respectful debate is fine, but don't let it get too heated. Don't like something? Ignore it and move on. Really don't like something? Downvotes to the left, then move on.
3. Acceptable content
Share your fanart! Share your fanfics! Share your out-of-left-field theories and head-canons! This community is open to all TADC-themed content, as long as it's SFW. Some content related to Glitch/Gooseworx is also acceptable as TADC-adjacent, but the primary focus should be Digital Circus
Reposting content from elsewhere is allowed, but you MUST credit the original source. Include the (user)name of the original poster in the title and put a link back to the original post in the body of the post.

I'm not entirely sold on the Jax is an NPC/AI theory. Some of the evidence like the Jax plushie first I think is just Glitch recognizing the fandom would latch on to him immediately
His "master of unlocking things" skill does stand out and there's obviously something we don't know about him given the lack of room on his pin card, I'm just not sold on the AI theory
We see him sad for just a moment before Kaufmo's funeral before he catches himself and gets annoyed. I feel like most of his behavior is just an unhealthy coping mechanism for getting trapped in the Circus, not AI. Goose also said on Tumblr that, of everyone, Jax deserves to be in the Circus the most: why would an AI deserve this punishment?
Given the CCK AIs were supposed to be 57x more immersive, that sounds like a big step up, and I dont think an AI as old as Jax would be capable of blending in so much. And Caine should have more control over an AI than a human, right? (But maybe that's where the "rouge" comes into play?)
My initial read on Caine's comment was just that there was a mixup and some horrible accident in the past, not that someone today is an undercover AI, and so far I'm still standing by it. I can see potential theories for a few of them being AIs (and apparently Film Theory wants to do the same for Pomni next), but I don't see any strong evidence to really suggest that so far. Jax is still definitely hiding something, but I don't think its that he's an AI
Yeah I'm not sold on either. I guess he could be a living person who was able to use the Void or getting nice insider informations I suppose.
Maybe that 57x AI stuff could be explained somehow, that the Void specifically created Jack or whatever, but the "gravity doesn't affect Jack the same as the others" sounds false to me, since he can be seen getting almost thrown of the truck when the grapple activates.
