January 15

I had a dream that I was standing in front of a large, imposing building. The sky was dark and stormy, and I felt a sense of dread wash over me. I couldn't remember why I was there or what I was supposed to do. Suddenly, a figure appeared in the doorway of the building. It was my mother, but she looked different. She was older and her face was twisted in anger. She began to shout at me, telling me that I had failed her and that I was a disappointment. I tried to defend myself, but the words wouldn't come out of my mouth. The dream ended with my mother turning and walking back into the building, leaving me alone and feeling lost.

I will tell you straight away that this is a dream text using AI software.

My instruction was: Write me a dream I can tell my therapist

The AI software is available free to all at: chat.openai.com

As expected, software is being developed to determine if a text is

Written by AI or by humans. An early version is available here: http://gptzero.me

Why mught this be necessary? Many reasons, but here is a recent headline as one

example: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-00056-7?utm_source=Nature+Briefing&utm_campaign=09f1bfe714-briefing-dy-20230113&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_c9dfd39373-09f1bfe714-45975758

To be sure, AI will have many positive uses. Here is a brief liat of some examples:

I am working on an essay about my thoughts and feelings about AI and my recent conversation with

AI about dreaming, imagination, intuition, synchronicity, etc.

Stay tuned.
