“I’m not yet comfortable with text peppered with emojis, gifs and stickers, as the finger-picked visuals do not exactly match the spirit of words.”
“Do you see an alternative, when machines become your scribes and face-to-face meetings happen across screens? When was it last that you shook hands with someone and formed an impression about the person from the kind of handshake given?”
“I can only foresee artificial intelligence mimicking what you think and reproducing it.”
“Won’t that be too intrusive? I need to be careful what I think.”

Your opening sentence, Reena, could certainly be the catch phrase for the “resistance”.
From reading everyone’s comments, we have plenty of company. I particularly like Clark’s point about “starving the human spirit”. How easily we defer to convenience provided by tech (emojis and such) and turn our imaginations over to machines. Technology/machines are helpful, yet can there ever be balance?

Balance is possible, till we control technology and not the other way round. Thank you, Denise!

So if AI is constructed by beings with fallible human intelligence, is it likely that it will inherit the fallibilities of its authors? If so, will the Third World War be fought between AI machines due to their inability to read each others algorithms, just like us?
Just sayin’ 😉

kinda like calculators in the 1970s and the spellcheck in the 80s and 90s
what (mental capacities) we do not use, we tend to lose
(even worse): some of us believe that there is such a quality as ‘personal reality’… nothing weird, simply the result of relating ourselves to the world around us. Having an artificial description of the world (we are trying to relate ourselves to) should, in theory, starve the human spirit
good Six

There are few creators of software, and it appears that others are only using tools and apps rather than employ creativity. You are right about personal reality. Thank you, Clark!

Artificial Intelligence is concerning. It’s only as good as its creator, plus is it beneficial or intrusive. Your piece is very apt for these times, Reena!

Thank you! I think we need an app to differentiate between AI-generated writing and genuine ones.

Good point in the first sentence about the difference between visuals and “the spirit of words”. It made me think that a picture is not worth a thousand words.
