Audacious Impertinents

Written for:  Friday Writings #78 - Artificial Intelligence


Intellectual children strive
to make our world a little less 
truthful, a little less
stable, a little less
private.  Our world becomes
their playground.  They
manipulate us, jerking
the strings of their
marionettes.

About purplepeninportland

I am a freelance poet, born and bred in Brooklyn, New York. I live with my husband, John, and two charming rescue dogs–Marion Miller and Murphy. We spent eight lovely years in Portland, OR, but are now back in New York. My goal is to create and share poetry with others who write, or simply enjoy reading poetry. I hope to touch a nerve in you, and feel your sparks as well.

  2. A friend of mine has a lovely (or scary?) joke: In the future, during the war between robots and humans, one robot general says to another, ‘I don’t believe that old myth that they invented us.’

  3. Less truthful, less stable is certainly happening right now, managed by flesh and blood people with passionate agendas who use AI to manipulate and confuse. But the tables could turn one day.

    Just this morning on the news, a fake photo of what looks terrifyingly like an explosion near the Pentagon. This is not good.
