Thank you Kerri for doing this work and sharing it - anything that makes AI more aligned to nature and life on earth has got to be good - as I see it, a case of 'if you can't beat them, join them' (and make 'them' better!). And if AI can help us solve some knotty problems; even better.

thank you Ange. This means a lot. It tells me that what I'm sharing is being received as intended.

Why do you even use AI? Don't you know what it costs the earth (many of its ressources for each task that you give to an AI) and us as human beings? Do you know about the fate of the countless data workers? Do you know why we have this technology in the first place, what vision its creators follow? That the earth and people are simply a sacrifice to reach their long term goal that sees a few selected transhumans colonializing space?

Hello! Thank you - I feel your concern. I'm not going to try to change your perspective - I honor your perspective. It's valuable and real and the grief is real.

I see most people joining in a conversation of either/or - either AI is a savior OR it is a sign of demise. And I hear you pointing to the destructive consciousness that seems to be behind the existence of AI.

I use this tool in large part because I see a third option, and that is to bring a new awareness, a new consciousness directly into what already exists.

Yes, people are being exploited, not only data workers but all over the planet for so many different reasons, whether they are aware of it or not. Yes, there is ecosystem destruction. Yes to all of that. And...

Since I am a participant on this planet, I have the option to lend my consciousness in the direction my heart guides me. Right now, in my view, AI is a magnificent tool, for all its destructive power, to bring forward a regeneration of awareness and intuitive creativity. This is how I choose to use the tool, and with this tool, I'm working to empower others to reclaim their own intuitive nature. For me, it's the perfect opportunity to bring forward the generative creativity that has been with me since infancy, to share the awareness that, as we humans remember the immense creative power in our heart, we can use that power for regeneration, even with these tools in their current form.

I simply remain curious what we can create when we open our hearts beyond the either/or consciousness and become really curious about what we CAN do with what's right in front of us to lift the conversation and generate a higher harmony. I'm not "correct", I'm just doing what feels real and true in my heart.
