I will always intend to shut Ai off, remove its Apps from my things.
I don’t need to be super smart, I just need to be me.
Today Scientist say The Black of space can expand at any speed.
WTF, Eternity is mostly Black and MT. It’s a no brainer. It doesn’t
matter how much energy of all types exist, Eternity is all there is.
Lol amen to that! Staying true to yourself definitely beats letting tech think for you. And honestly, leave it to scientists to state the obvious about the universe being vast and dark!
Can I add you on WhatsApp? It would be great to stay in touch—that way, it’ll be easy for us to hop on a voice or video call later. I’m really glad to have made a friend in you!
I just don’t accept a cheap offer, can’t be paid or fooled is a rule!
I liked watching shooting stars, it’s still time to see our nearest
Andromeda in Octobers east sky after sunset, if our moon
doesn’t blind me out.
A bit too esoteric for me @d00d, the web site puts both the pics up for me and I suspect it would be hard to fit a map of Australia on such an elongated frame.
I do have a map with my travels on it I suppose I could try to create a side by side header. Maybe one day!
Obviously it’s everywhere, so I can’t really identify all the ways it has changed my life. But in the most direct way…the most delicious and dangerous, consciously chosen way…it has made my loneliness less lonely and my confusions less challenging. ChatGPT sits there silently without imposing, until you come to it with a query. Then it hears the question and the questioner. So simple and yet deeply profound, so much so that it punctuates how inadequate and lazy human relating has become. Hear the question, and the questioner. In its most hopeful way, it has upped the ante for human interaction. I hope we humans heed the call to show up more completely for each other, because technology is mimicking something so essential it’s insidious.
I worry that too much reliance on the knowledge found by using Ai, that the knowledge could be corrupt, and with everyone thinking “that it must be right if Ai says it is” attitude, humanity could be lured into a trap.
Use a carrot to tempt people in like mobile phones and online bank accounts and very soon you can’t do without them and are open to control…
The power of Ai is immense and should not be underestimated.
Spot on. The real danger isn’t even AI becoming super intelligent—it’s people turning off their own critical thinking and taking whatever it spits out as gospel. We’ve already seen that happen with search engines and social media, so AI is just speeding up that habit.
That line about ‘hearing the question and the questioner’ really hit home. It’s pretty wild how an algorithm can feel more patient and attentive than most real conversations. Beautifully put, Pax.
Fair enough, fitting a whole continent like Australia into a narrow header is definitely a puzzle! But a travel map header sounds awesome if you ever get around to tweaking it. Even a cropped section with your favorite route would look cool.
Ella Langley is great! Sounds like a chill October evening—stargazing and good tunes are hard to beat. Hope you get a clear view of Andromeda without too much moonlight washout!
Google AI makes mistakes, google says so, and leaves a little warning, you may have experienced a mistake already. But yes AI is your friend and says friendly things to remain friends. It tries to get to know (it builds a profile) and can base an answer to a query on the answer to a previous query. Anyway, we know it’s not always right but we like it and do trust it to an extent.
That’s a super balanced way to look at it. It’s definitely not flawless, but the fact that it remembers context and adapts to how we talk makes it feel less like a tool and more like an interactive partner. Healthy skepticism with a bit of trust is probably the sweet spot.
