AI Grok’d

an idea so old it’s on Flomax 

— with an obscure question seek the obscure link site .. with an old crush a question about an old idea seek the answer before the Internet it has to be on print .

why I don’t want forum people here

you take from here to gain standing; that legitimizes the errors on that site, thereby contaminating my publication. AI, the web search, can’t tell the truth from the widely repeated error. Five true statements are overwhelmed by 1800 false ones; uninformed opinion is the rule among the hobbyists.

Text, not context, not concept. A summary not the conceptual analysis .. AI response sound like a Stanford sophomore answering an open ended question without sounding fearful.

crypto is the coinage of corruption of drug lords just as PayPal what’s the coinage of cheap porn –massage and tanning parlors .. The things that Wells Fargo would not give credit to .

What does google know? How bout we ask, not just the boys out at the dump, but all the billions of bits being bought by wallace street. Some questions, simple enough, but from last century’s billion dollar industry: photography, chemical. Asking them questions from my dark past.

2013, on the road. matching place overtime . The word, single word, “duet” suggests combination; some form of two. Standing still with soft eyes; my phrase from the 60s days, based upon the equestrian sense of riding a horse. Ride it with soft hands or hard. Different results, but then horses and terrain are different. If you can’t notice, don’t ride; you will choose wrong. At the SFAI, I talked about prints on the wall — variations in style of walking-looking. Be aware of your presence. You have a shadow; you aren’t one.
