Connection

Not only are we failing to consider other species, we are flailing in our connection with one another.

Isn’t it wild how much power our words have?

How easily they can cast spells on people, how they have ripple effects in all directions?

Some have hopes for AIs’ influence on humans’ curiosity, decision-making and creativity.
