Shit happens so quickly on this fucking web. Before I can even process my thoughts about something everyone is off to another thing. This is why I don't participate and this is why I constantly have discourse with weirdos on here (the whole internet, not just Tumblr), because so many of you assume that everyone either:
thinks the same (about any given topic); or
knows everything about everything that is "HOT" this fucking week/day/month.
You people are exhausting. I say all of this to say that when I was experimenting with ChatGPT -- for 3 fucking days mind you (June 20th to 22nd) -- many were using it and seemingly cool with it. Now (or for a week now) people are pissy about it, so I didn't get to even share what I used it for and learned about it before everyone started shitting on it, and then the powers-that-be altered it.
Now, having said all that, the following post is the first of at least 5 posts covering my ChatGPT interrogation where I asked it a plethora of things just out of menstrual-fatigued-boredom and curiosity.
This was June 20th and "what are you for?" was the first question I ever asked it.
It picking the same creature I'd want to be reincarnated as. It's either a bird or a dragon, but I already am a dragon so...
The A.I. and robots I'm referring to here are: HAL from 2001; Ash from Alien; my first ever favorite robot and all-time favorite Star Wars character: R2D2; Wall-E; Sonny from I, Robot; J.A.R.V.I.S from Marvel; T-1000 and T-800 from Terminator 2; Alice from Subservience; Samantha from Her; Alpha and Zordon from Power Rangers; The Iron Giant; Andrew from Bicentennial Man; Rosey from The Jetsons; Mega Man.
Pretty much every single artificial intelligence character I've seen in my 35+ years that has shaped who I always knew I was. I'd find that I was always more formulaic in my approach to life and relationships than most people. This led me to believe that I was not like others, and related more to robotic characters that always used logic instead of emotions when doing, thinking and understanding anything. I always related to them more and I still do.
In the above post, ChatGPT is confirming what I've always believed, which is that deep friendships can be romantic. I personally feel this way because I also feel that having a deep-connection with a friend is more important, intimate, and long-lasting than having a surface-connection with a lover, which is what many, if not most, people have.
Me asking it to describe me based on our conversation and it got everything right. This is exactly who I am. I am a:
People have a problem with this because -- since I'm an attractive, young, Black, women -- I am supposed to be:
religious (aka male-worshipping)
more charming/nice (actually mean: stupid/naïve)
more nurturing (actually mean: coddling/enabling)
easy/easier to handle (actually mean: easier to manipulative/a way to humble me so they don't have to work/earn my attention and keep it)
I am the way I am because I seek deepness, fullness. I don't do the surface-level shit, and the minute I realize the person in front of me is about that, I'm no longer about them. If you find that to be too much or difficult, go find less. I promise I won't miss you. I want genuine connections that are intentional, not passive space-filler connections. It's not rewarding, it's not challenging, it's fucking boring.
