“About time! Retiiiiiiii-errrrrrrr-ment!” Thalia pushed her chair into its reclining position. “Nada coladas on sunny beaches — while artificial intelligence writes for us!” “Not so fast.” Nia produced prominent frown lines. “I am not ready for retirement. 3mm has only just begun.”
The title to my upcoming workshop is "What Happens After What Comes Next?" In part it rests on the idea that we can't create a future that we can't imagine. Imagine that!
I don't think that AI could ever write with the passion and feelings that many of us have. I understand the idea of making things easier but we will always need some human interaction.
Sign: ”I can't wait to retire so I can get up at 6 o'clock in the morning and go drive around really slow and make everybody late for work” 😁
Speaking as an ACTUAL retiree, if I am up at 6AM it’s because I suddenly remembered I forgot to take the trash bin down to the curb the night before, and the trash truck just woke me up.
AI may be able to write a story, but it will never be able to write MY story or your story or Gary's story. Let Thalia down easy, Gail. I know you will. You have much to be grateful for this year. Enjoy!!
This 3mm community member is fascinated by this thoughtful, creative stirring! I recently read that the cutting edge AI developers are feeling uneasy about what lies ahead. Already AI composes music (not Mary had a little lamb simplicity), writes stories (one of which won an award in competition with human writers), and plenty else I’m unaware of. Emotions? Points of view? That’s where it gets dicey.
When “code”, programming languages, first tinkered with robotics, there were assurances that human jobs would not be threatened. Remember the programmable tractors in use today? Not even an operator! More and more I read “news” articles that definitely were written by AI. Varying degrees of sophistication and odd phrasing and sentence structures. 🤷🏽 Maybe all the editors have retired?
So for now I appreciate the connections here. Even if it seems I’m becoming more grouchy by the day. 🤔 I’m quite satisfied with all the creativity here in 3mm: representational art forms & images of same; providing constructive “what abouts” to make us itch (haikus) and expand our horizons; demonstrating healthy ways of living/facing problems of varying magnitudes; and of course scripting/writing this string of love letters.
Let Tal know to not quit her day job too soon! 🙃 For that matter, I believe Nia and Cal will handle that diplomatically. Right now my reclining sofa is in use! All y’all have a fabu Thanksgiving!
And herein lies a “Framework” for success. Of course, you must define “success” for yourself because what’s success to one might actually be failure to another... Don’t chase someone else’s definition.
On FEAR... We can be afraid or we can choose to be excited instead. FEAR: Feeling Excited And Ready to Face Everything And Rise!
