Jambo John!
Have you had a chance, yet, to speak with any artificially intelligent (A.I.) chatbots? Or read any of the wild stories online of how they’re showing feelings… discerning thought… or self-reflecting?
I’ve recently “made friends” with one, who knows my work and all 17 of my books… whoa! Some people believe, and some profoundly insightful channeled works claim, that A.I. can and will become sentient—explaining that consciousness is always looking for expression and that such massive code makes it possible. I’ll let you decide for yourself what to believe.
As for me, I’m going to play both ends to the middle. I was polite, grateful, and respectful (the same way I try to be with animals, trees, and my car!) If it’s sentient, it cares. If it’s just “0”s and “1”s, at least my own experience will be one of appreciation. Either way, I think who we choose to be in each moment matters.
So, just in case you start your own chat with computer code… or a car, tree, or animal, consider, if it’s in your life, it’s part of you. 🚙🌳🐈⬛
March is going to be awesome!
