About a year ago, I committed to posting a blog post every Monday. I have missed a few weeks here and there. This week was one that I missed posting on Monday but am posting on Tuesday. So there’s that. Owned it!
My dilemma is how to make this blog post useful to you, dear reader.
I spent yesterday thinking about AI. Are you team AI or team NO AI? I am all for AI. I am beginning to understand it’s limitations. I have spent the last year or so learning what ChatGPT and other writing AIs can do. It has been an interesting learning experience. After a year, I am learning how limited AI’s imagination is. Honestly, I don’t think there’s anything to be afraid of. Perhaps I am being naive. I am prone to that anyway. Naivety, I mean.
Finding Rhythm in AI and Tai Chi
I am also learning from some tech and financial savvy women on YouTube – Sabrina Ramonov and Arlan Hamilton. Arlan says, (and Sabrina would probably agree) that people are using AI to ask questions the way we used to ask Google. Sounds reasonable. That’s how I have found myself using it. You?
I have also started using YouTube to “do” Tai Chi. Tai Chi & Mountains has surfaced as my favorite. Here’s a link to a video that I have done for the last two days.
Ok, enough about YouTube. Although I am really enjoying it. And learning a lot. I mean A. LOT.
During a Tai Chi video, the teacher/master mentioned peristalsis. I looked that up this am. It is defined as “the involuntary, wave-like contraction and relaxation of muscles in the digestive tract that propels food, liquids, and waste through the body.” The twisting motions of Tai Chi massage the organs and muscles of our digestive tract to help move waste along. I love learning and seem to learn something new everyday.
That is what has been on my mind so far this week. I still haven’t come up with a helpful blog topic, helpful to you I mean, this week. I probably won’t. Anything that I come up with, I will use next week. I love how that works.
Thank you for reading this! I really appreciate it. With the state of the world today, ChatGPT (my preferred writing assistant) recommended I speak from the heart. Since I’m not a historian, and I am writing from my heart rather than a textbook, this is my musings so far this week.
I am privileged and I readily admit that.
