Thanks for checking out AI for us? I want to know more about it but don't want to spend the time researching it. Kind of how I feel about GMO foods. A great public service!
Nancy! Loved this post. All of it. That clip of the French man speaking English was so freaky! Ugh. I agree there's totally something lost in translation. I wonder if the people who are translated like that have to give permission? Seems like that should be required. Love, love Shel Silverstein. The poem brought back memories and made me chuckle. Discovering your Stack and meeting you has been a real highlight of 2023. Talk soon!
Permission is such a great question! I bet they didn’t get any, but I hope I’m wrong. And you’re totally sweet—and I feel the same way! I’m so glad we met this year! 😁
Thanks, Katherine! I agree it’s not going anywhere. I do worry that we’re being more cavalier about it than is wise—that the unintended consequences are lurking around the corner if we’re not much more careful than we seem to be being (it feels like a lot of “we should, just because we can!” which is generally not a wise approach), but I’d love to be wrong!

Thanks, Julia—you’re welcome. Though I’ve just posted about stuff that’s randomly crossed my path, the more that happens, the more I seem to find. 😉
Still love it! 😆

A thoughtful essay as usual.
I figure AI is here to stay, so we might as well be positive and think about how to make it useful.
