‘The Unprompted’ hits hard. A reminder that no algorithm can touch the heart the way a poet can.

Prompt: Please summarize what is happening in this Transcript from a Ted Talk.
Response:”In this TED Talk transcript, the speaker reflects on humanity’s relationship with technology, particularly AI, and its impact on society. They describe using AI chatbots for mundane queries, like drafting emails or responding to texts, but quickly pivot to questioning the state of the world—crumbling under systemic issues like capitalism, racism, and inequality, which AI cannot solve. The speaker critiques the overreliance on technology, noting that 700 million adults remain illiterate and workers in poor conditions fuel tech advancements. They argue that true dystopia is not a sci-fi AI uprising but humanity’s inaction in the face of real-world crises. While acknowledging technology’s potential as a tool for good, the speaker emphasizes that hope, optimism, and human action—not automation—are what will save the world. They urge the audience to wield technology responsibly to build a better future, ensuring the world “finally finds us well.”

No, it’s easy for AI to learn about this. It’s just not important to feed the data about this, yet (maybe), if ever. I’m a fan of LLM AI, I know a lot of people despise it, but it just a matter of how you use it. It’s the same with Google Search.

You and I or us are mere interpreters and only us are to be changed we haven’t destroyed this world and we can’t save it don’t think so us so big. We neither created this world nor can destroy it so stop thinking about saving it. You want to save you and your offspring’s the leeches, mere cancer cell we are to this planet 🙂 just kidding*

Do you struggle to read/understand poetry? A lot of people do. Some people can read it, but struggle to take it in when listening to it. Have you tried reading the transcript?

This woman seems more human than any of us. Thank you for reminding us what it means to be human and to think like a human, before our brains become so shaped by our interactions with AI that there’s little left to recognize as human intelligence.

I feel like many people don’t acknowledge that the dynamics of human brain are fundamentally equivalent to that of AI (deep learning artificial neural network), just with a more a complicated architecture.

Chat GPT assured me it was monitoring my responses to develop a profile about me. It was pretty accurate. But I often think they are training us, rather than the other way round.
