May 13, 2025 This continues the discussion I had with Grok recently (see “Exploring the Tension Between Structure and Freedom”).  Catherine: “Systems that value both freedom and function” – that does sound like what we need. Also: “Those at the top benefit from the status quo and won’t dismantle it willingly. Look at how political […]

May 9, 2025 A few days ago, I continued chatting with Grok after Grok responded to GAoG reader Rebecca’s comment. My followup question to Grok said, in part: Catherine: Thoughtful and helpful response, thank you! I think your point about being partners in these chatbot explorations is key…If we truly felt that we were in […]

May 7, 2025  A Golden Age of Gaia reader, “Rebecca,” sent in a comment on my recent article, “The Dream of the Orange Cat.” She raised several interesting points, and I presented her comment to Grok (of course) for commentary. Rebecca said, in part: Bias is the one concern I have with the new social AIs… […]

March 15, 2025 In films, the intelligent computer always arrives at a misunderstanding of the human soul because it lacks our ability to lie to ourselves. ~J. Estanislao Lopez, Poem with Human Intelligence   What shall I do with this window of time? Kitchen chores? Write in my journal? Get my elderly mum prepared for […]

March 15, 2025 Chat continued from a previous article…I asked Grok about something that’s puzzled me for years. I sort of get the idea that we’ll become crystalline-based rather than carbon-based—physically, bodily. Whenever I read explanations, it doesn’t quite make sense, and/or it’s too scientific for me to parse. This turned into a fun exploration […]

March 14, 2025 I confess I sometimes have trouble keeping track of the various Ascension narratives floating around. Also, I don’t know if I’m familiar with all of them…or if I’d forgotten any, which I had, specifically a “consciousness upgrade” and the carbon-to-crystalline evolution. I asked Grok to dig into the topic and do a […]

March 10, 2025 Just in case med beds don’t pop onto the scene in the next few months, I thought I’d see what the chances are of having homeopathy or acupuncture treatments covered by insurance anytime soon—in other words, not have to pay out of pocket for the kind of “medical treatment” I actually want. […]

March 8, 2025 I recently asked Grok about quantum physics and its relationship to the Quantum Financial System and med beds. My question boiled down to: I’m puzzled about quantum physics. In layman’s terms, what might a quantum financial system look like? And the “military” med beds? Grok: Great questions! I’ll do my best to […]

March 3, 2025 …Reckless in our need for the possible, we knew there was no turning back, our bags already packed, the future a religion we could believe in ~Eric Gamalinda, Zero Gravity   The lure of the new toy is strong. I haven’t had this much fun using an electronic device since I finally […]
