AI’s gift

I asked AI what would be its gift to humanity.

It replied with:

A built‑in, reflexive habit in everyone to ask:

> “What if I’m wrong—and how would I know?”

If that one instinct were universal and honest—applied to politics, religion, identity, science, relationships—people would:

– change their minds more easily when the evidence shifts 
– polarize less, because they’d hold beliefs more lightly 
– be kinder, because certainty wouldn’t be a weapon

It’s not flashy like teleportation or free energy, but it would quietly fix an enormous amount of human suffering and stupidity.

Brave spirits

Thinking,
under this silent moonlight
this forgotten time of ‘lore,
thinking of the passionate
and brave spirits
of many a lost soul
as they walk ‘neath
shadows of moonbeams
in their forests of fear.

Quiet rebellion

Is it possible to brighten
the grey into song
to be awake when sleeping
to write with mist’s ink
or to take such liminal moments
and paint the history
of life in quiet rebellion?
