Artificial Intellience and Real People

 I am in the process of writing another book. I will be writing the way I did when I was an active blogger and putting in many of the poems I have written over the years. I figure I have written over 5,000 poems since discovering my ability to rhyme. The poetry and the writing is designed to be read on a daily basis and I am calling my book The Daily Uplift.  Along the way, I want to share some of my writings in this blog for the few who stop here to enjoy. Here is a selection I wrote just this morning:


Artificial Intelligence and Real People

 

In the most recent past, Artificial Intelligence, or AI, has become a big part of our daily life. You can experience it by calling a customer service line. When you hear things like “say or press one”, you are experiencing a chat bot. AI has revolutionized the industry and eliminated many entry level jobs.

Many people are now utilizing AI for creative purposes. In my mind that is a contradiction in terms, but it is true.  Spell check and grammar check is a form of AI. As I write, I am getting red and blue lines all the time. Blue lines come more often than red lines, as I consider myself good at spelling. This is when AI can be my friend.

The AI apps which are available can be fun to play with. The one on my phone has given me ideas for things to say on my podcast. But currently, these apps are lacking one thing. This thing they lack is my personality.

That also goes for the chat bots used in consumer service. They may be great for black and white issues. In my opinion, when someone picks up the phone to talk about an issue they have with a product or service, they want to be connected with a human being, and one in their own country. They want someone with empathy. A sense of humor can be an asset as well.

I get a chuckle when people create poetry, if you want to call it that, using ChatGPT. You get some well written verse. It is lacking one thing. It is lacking in the human heart. I can come up with my poems in a very short time when I am expressing my heart.

Please remember that there is only one you. What you have to say is unique and no machine can exactly replicate that. There is always someone who wants to hear what’s in your heart and you need to express it. What is in your heart has great value.

 

Artificial Intelligence is here to stay

Will not be going away

But it won’t be revealing

What we may be feeling

So express from your heart when you may

 

 

Remember that your brain is more powerful than any computer ever created.

Post 800: Time to chat

Hi Guys, It's hard to believe that this is post number 800 for this blog. I started this blog out of my desire to communicate. Since radio and television is becoming more and more automated and less and less personal, I'm glad I made the decision to go in this direction as it has given me many blessings. When I first decided to write my musings, a friend from the radio and television boards who goes by the name of newsnomore, told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get any readers. The fact that I did in the early going made me surprised and grateful that anyone was enjoying what I wrote. I've had people tell me that maybe it wasn't meant for me to ever be in radio, that maybe my calling was blogging. Nowadays I think blogging makes for better two way conversation than terrestrial radio, especially the way I do it, non confrontational. The closest I come from any confrontation is the innocent digs that Pat and I shoot at each other. On an average day I get betwee

Sometimes Sports are Just Sports

 This may or may not make the final cut of my book. I was writing about some events this weekend and what had started as a joyous Friday night at my home school district became a weekend of heartbreak in the area after what happened at another school. Sometimes We Need to Realize That Sports are Just Games   Friday nights in late summer and early fall are sometimes a big deal for high school students and their families. As the long-time band announcer for my local high school, it is a time of year I always look forward to. This past Friday night was originally supposed to be the homecoming game for the local high school. The schedule had to be changed a bit because of the uncertainty of the opponents being able to field a team. There was talk around the league that they may have had to forfeit this game, so homecoming for the local school was rescheduled. The opponents, which are rivals of my local school district, were able to field a team and the game was played. The game was

Lawson's Chip Dip

On a couple of occasions I have written posts dedicated to Lawson's, a convenience store chain that was located in Ohio for close to 50 years. In the late 1980's the chain was bought out by Dairy Mart, of Engfield Ct. Dairy Mart was then purchased by Alimentation Couche-Tard, and most stored were rebranded Circle K. Something that has survived the years since Lawson's has left the landscape is Lawson's Chip Dip. I get many hits on this blog from people out of Ohio, I'm thinking former Buckeyes, looking for availability of this chip dip. I had gotten an email from a former resident of Cleveland looking for it. I emailed Circle K about this sometime ago asking if it was possible to send the dip out to those out of state, they said because of quality issues that it was not possible. My only suggestion would be to get in touch with Circle K in your home area and ask them to start stocking this very popular item that seems to make every get-together complete. Now we wil
