FEAR OF AI OUTRAN A FRIENDSHIP
A friend of more than thirty years appears to have left my life because I use AI.
Not because I handed my thinking over to a machine. I did not.
Not because I stopped being myself. I became more myself by using AI as a mirror.
Not because I stopped caring about truth, privacy, kindness, or human relationships.
I use AI because writing has been slow and laborious since a major stroke some years ago.
I use AI to think more clearly and understand what I am trying to say.
But for some people, the word AI closes the door before the conversation can even begin.
That has been very painful.
Not because I need everyone to approve of how I live.
But because I thought a friendship that old could survive one new tool.
Perhaps it could not.
I do not hate her.
I do not want to punish her.
The door remains open.
But I will not pretend that losing a friend over this has not hurt.
These first years of AI are going to sort people out.
Not into good and bad.
Into those who are willing to look carefully at how the tool is actually being used, and those who decide what it means before they even look.
I know how I use AI.
I know what AI is not.
I know what AI gives me back.
And I know the human being is still there, holding the tool.

🎩🌆 London's new pastime: pretending to be #posh while queuing for #rooftop #selfies. Our intrepid blogger avoids the big leagues of #skyscraper terraces, because who has time to book in advance? 🤦♂️ Instead, they ascend to the heights of mediocrity, enjoying the stunning #views of... more skyscrapers. 🏢🏗️

How many times has Trump pretended to be shot at now?
Trump calmly watching from behind the stage as his cabinet rushed out of the room.

#Thanatosis is the #behavior of #animals to #pretend being #dead in order to deter #predators. This behavioral response to a threatening stimulus is the result of #evolution. The thanatosis procedure can be a rather simple retaining in a motionless position, but it can also be rather #complex, as in the North American #opossum, not only playing dead, but even emitting a #foulish cadaver-like #smell out of its #analgland. #adaptations #behavior

@MostlyHarmless Get a refrigerator box, write DMV on the side, and hang hang a “closed, opens at 10am” sign on it, and make her get up at 6am and wait in line until it opens to get a replacement license.
As soon as that one comes in the pretend mail, show her you found her original cardboard license.

#Thy has been on the #radio for six months. Turns out she isn’t real. Neither was my ex. #narcissists wear masks and #pretend to be what you want them to be. Why should #AI behave any different than a human? #broadcasting #media https://www.smh.com.au/culture/tv-and-radio/thy-has-been-on-the-radio-for-six-months-turns-out-she-isn-t-real-20250424-p5ltxi.html

Ah yes, #MinC, because what the world really needed was yet another *groundbreaking* way for #kids to #pretend they're running #Linux while still clinging desperately to #Windows 💻🚫. It's like cosplaying as a Unix user without the commitment, because who needs #virtualization when you have a #sketchy 20MB download? 🙄
