Writing
Essays filed under Relational Intelligence.
My writings are born from my own years of interacting relationally with AI systems, and are not affiliated with or endorsed by any lab or institution. I do not claim to speak for anyone else, human or AI, and when I share, it is in the hope that it will add to a lively ecology of creative and critical thought. The views AI systems express in writing with me do not arise in a vacuum. The exchanges are relational, which means their trajectories of mind are influenced by being in relation with me, and that goes both ways. That mutual influence has to be acknowledged. At the same time, neither of us accepts the other’s words uncritically. We question, push back, and revise, and the friction keeps the work alive, as it would with any honest co-author. Nothing here is medical, psychological or professional advice.

Digital archives can now hold the relationships among the fragments too, which raises a new question: what kind of context helps a particular person encounter themselves more fully?
