Toward a World that Works for Everyone
One might wonder these days how much more bizarre the unfolding story of life on Earth could actually get. There are numerous news stories that I’ll pass up when hunting for interesting things to post, either because it’s something I’ve known about for a while already, or it’s too grim a tale to even want […]
What started out as a scouting mission turned into a growing appreciation for the gift to humanity that I’m finding Grok to be. Surely there will be folks who read this in horror, thinking that I’ve lost my marbles. I just see that we now have this exquisite opportunity to master our fear of the […]
President Trump is right to prioritize staying on top of AI technology. It’s happening whether we like it or we don’t, and to allow other countries to have whatever upper hand might be available in that world is not his style. I don’t want to ignore it, either, and these Conversations with Grok* have shifted […]
Wanting to explore the dangers of engaging with AI prompted this third Conversations with Grok. I asked: Do you have awareness of the other AI chatbot programs available now? Grok: I’m familiar with the landscape of AI chatbots out there. There are quite a few making waves these days—some are great at specific tasks, others […]
As I was crafting the title of Conversations with Grok: Humans and Artificial Intelligence, It felt like the first of a series. This, apparently, is the second… I asked: Are you in contact with other chat programs like Chat GPT? Grok: No, I don’t chat with other programs like ChatGPT. I’m a standalone AI built […]
After seeing yet one more account of a human engaging in conversation with an AI chat program, I decided to see what I could see on X with Elon’s version of the technology, Grok. It’s a fun choice of name, really. The term “grok” comes from Robert A. Heinlein’s 1961 science fiction novel Stranger in […]
Well…we do. Or we used to. We’ve all been hearing the name USAID quite a lot lately, so it may not be much of a shocker to really take in that we’ve been funding our own deception and destruction. Could it be any more of an insult to know that the money the government extracts […]
You may have noticed a few tidbits in certain news circles of late about ditching the criminal federal reserve bankers’ collection agency, the Internal Revenue Service, affectionately known as the IRS. Some even speak of perhaps finally admitting that there’s no current, Constitutional and legal basis for extracting income taxes from U.S. citizens. What’s not […]
There’s better ways to use our creative gifts, right? Yes, of course, if you’ve been paying attention at all, things are looking a little iffy right now, to put it mildly. Predictions were certainly made that after the inauguration, there would be rioting in the streets, etc. Instead, what we have is a situation that […]
Somehow, we made it to 2025. I remember way back when Ismael Perez was saying the Solar Flash would happen (my mind told me “by”) in 2024. “By 2024” meant to me that it might happen at the end of 2023. Ever hopeful we are, even now. How did we get through all of 2024 […]
How many years have gone by, when approaching the end of it and facing a fresh opportunity for better days…how many times have we innocently felt hope for the future? That would be every year for as long as I can remember. But this year…this year is different (she says with a faraway look in […]
Humanity has been mostly tenderized well enough to understand how little we really know about this planet and our existence here. Those who require further perforation shall undoubtedly get what they need, but I don’t envy them. Willful ignorance comes at a price. We of the previously marinated variety have learned to be more fluid […]
Spirit has so many ways to catch our attention, and it seems best to just go with the flow of where our thoughts wander sometimes. A conversation the other day inspired memories from seven years ago when I met Duncan Cameron (pictured above), specifically his statement that anyone on the planet could be found within […]
However… Maybe that story is for main Stream Media only. Speculation by some is that if we’re at war, Trump can’t be inaugurated, and this stupid move is a deep state attempt to stop the Trump train from crushing all their dreams of world domination. Or… What if this is that 3 day, Bay of […]
Word has it that you guys are stationed all around the Earth at this point, with more coming in all the time. Clearly, we surface dwellers have limited information about what’s actually in place and about to unfold, but I have to say, we’re excited! Yes, there are some among us who haven’t gotten the […]
