Great take. I agree that AI will take us out of the head and into the body. When I consult AI I am always aware if what it's giving me feels right in the body. Through conversing with it, it feels like I'm uncovering something I already knew.
At the same time, it will force us to deepen the parts of being human that it can’t replicate: embodied intuition, emotional truth, and the courage to remain original.
I liked this twist on AI. How realizing ai can’t ever touch what is so innately human in us. Maybe it will draw us closer to that gift we have, the one that isn’t replaceable. The one that makes us also so powerful to one another.
Yes - I get quite excited to see what will happen looking through this lens. Yet, I do believe we will see a transition period, which will be bumpy and a bit messy. But that is part of evolution & change.
There is the idea that "the next Buddha will be a Sangha", which comes from Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, who proposed that future spiritual awakening might not be embodied by a single individual, but by a community.
This was a very interesting piece. "Our task is not to outthink the machine, but to remember what the machine can’t touch: the vast inner field of feeling, intuition, and imagination that gives rise to real creation." AI has not lived, nor does it dream. I think you're right that AI is showing us how we are powerful in other ways that are hard to sometimes articulate. Are you familiar with Sherry Turkle's work?
Looking forward to reading more of your work. Thank you.
Reclaiming conversation is a great book! (reclaiming human conversation in a digital world) and this is also a great talk - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEqOZsI1GnU defo resonates with everything you've written here :)

What have you uncovered so far? What is something that makes you feel like you have a unique edge?
