I read this so quickly because I was so excited you were writing about AI (I need to go back and read again more slowly.) thank you so much for writing this and sharing from such a personal and authentically curious perspective. I am honestly angry at how ravenously humans have jumped onto the mind numbing ship of AI, which to me feels like another mechanism of patriarchy to dominate the naturally arising wisdom of the animal body of earth. Reading your heartfelt perspective on this brought cellular relief in my body. I am so tired of the human brain superiority complex and the bizarre ego attempt to take over the universe.

It inspires me deeply to hear your dedication to your own self-knowing even when all the systems around us are encouraging the mechanization of self and mind 💔🙏

Always coming back to the rilke line “if we surrendered to earth’s intelligence, we would rise up rooted, like trees.”

There is a playful voice here in my jungle of a mind saying "Artificial intelligence is like a head shrink for natural intelligence, trimming back overgrown thoughts, disentangling messy growth, even cutting back to the bone so that new growth from the stem cells of thought can sprout up fresh and green like born again human beings running around as hippies naked in the garden of Eden!"
