And it’s an age old tactic to divide us and pitt each other against one another to avoid organized revolt. Stop being mad at your IG friend for their ugly chat flyer and be mad at the power holders trying to build a data centre in your backyard.

We’re not emotionally or spirituality mature enough as a species to responsibly handle the tech we’re creating. And your ChatGPT flyers are fucking ugly.

I’m not anti-AI. I worked in tech for 6 ish years. I’ve been following important educators like Sinead Bovell who talk about the intersections of tech and human rights and social responsibility. I’m not afraid of AI but I do fear humans.

In order to become a better person, you must first realize how horrible you really are. Not in the dramatic sense, but in the quiet ways you sabotage yourself, repeat unhealthy patterns, hurt people who care about you, or tolerate what wounds you. You cannot grow if you keep pretending you're innocent in the story you've created.

You should study what makes you defensive. The topic you avoid, the joke that irritates you, the question that feels insulting, the feedback you instantly reject. Defensiveness is usually the guard dog sitting in front of a weakness you have not trained yourself to face.
