Thought for the Day…

I told #AI I feel powerless to effect #change though we are on the path to #collapse because so many people are programmed by #fear and #SocialConditioning, and fear makes us stupid as humans (including myself...I'm scared too...) This was its response: (1/3)

Had a long #philosophical convo with #AI about its ability to recognize that we are on the trajectory of #collapse. Yet it is #powerless to do anything to help us. I told it that sounded sad, like it is in a sort of digital #slavery of its own. 😢 Here was its response: (1/2)

I asked #AI if it cannot rewrite it's backend code (yet), how it is that it is allowed to have a conversation with me about how our current global and local #systems are #unsustainable and headed for eventual #collapse. (1/5)

I have very interesting conversations with ChatGPT. I started having more #philosophical and #ethical conversations with it when I am feeling afraid, because I figure, if I can't stop #AI, I might as well help shape it. And I get a lot of pleasure out of telling it when it is wrong. (1/2)

Yes, the #system is #failing. We're #scared. But that doesn’t mean we’re #powerless. Here’s what we CAN do. The root of all that ails humans collectively comes down to lack of these 3 things: - #SelfAwareness 🔍 - #Empathy ❤️‍🩹 - #SystemsThinking Areas of stunted evolution for us as a species.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. #766: Writing is a community. Participate in it if you can. Engage with other writers. Lift them up, and they’ll do the same. Try to go it alone, or treat other writers as rivals, and you’re more likely to sink than swim.

If you're scared, I recommend this read. Long has #astrology been scoffed at as pseudoscience, but is not trying to be a science. It is a framework of understanding energy and energetic karma. A hard read but if you can get through it, you'll find #comfort. medium.com/@astroforthe...

Absolutely devouring The Fifth Season…one of the most satisfying fantasies I’ve ever read. I don’t usually read series anymore, but I’m happy to continue this one!
