Make sure to use AI
the next time you want to
prepare for an interview
definitely do not ask your
friend who has always
nailed interviews in the past,
who knows you better than any AI ever can
he might ask you how you have been
and you might end up telling him about
the job you lost, the company that fired you
he might listen to you deeply, gently, empathetically
in a way that you have been longing for.
who knows you might shed a tear and feel lighter
that he was there for you at a time
you needed someone to hear you out

please absolutely use AI when you
want movie recommendations and
do not message your friend who
is so crazy about movies that
he even knows the lyricist and choreographers
of most films he likes, he might
end up sharing about a film he recently saw that
reminded him of his father and how he still
misses him. he might end up sharing a bit
too much about himself in the process
how he has been since his father’s death
how much responsibility has come to him
how his only source of joy is speaking to his friends
on calls like these
you might end up making his day
he might share the exact movie you needed

use AI the next time you want to write
something for your mom’s birthday
do not waste time in writing a few lines
for her who changed your diapers,
whose love and care still makes you feel
strong enough to reign the world
who you miss so much on nights
when you feel lonely that you look
at her photograph and wish she was there around you
the pre-fed context in chatgpt along with a prompt
engineered for her 54th birthday might be just as good
she will still call you and thank you for how
grateful she is that you took out the time
to write her a message

the next time you’re travelling to the
mountains for a camping trip
just feed in a good prompt to claude
to give you a list of things to pack
make sure to not call up your friend
who lives the camping life in the mountains
he might just invite you to his home
to explore the wilderness with him
he might show you his favourite trees and
his favourite birds, you may end up in
awe looking at the world through the
eyes of someone who lives life as the
offspring of the very nature you
want to deeply see
your life might never look the same again

i know you would want investing tips
and tips to save money
please just use gemini or rather
claude’s new model for it
the latest podcasts also talks about it
it might take some extra tokens but i know
you would have used them judicially
don’t bother to have a conversation with your
father who has invested for the past 30 years
and saved money to give you and your brother
a life that is safe, secure and comfortable
he might ask you if you need some money
you might say no
he might end up transferring some anyway
with a note that you might want to take a screenshot of
”love you, my daughter”

what’s there to art, poetry, photography, writing, books,
music, love, romance, stories, plays, cinema
when AI can do it all with the click of a button and a clever prompt
please wonder at its creative prowess and refrain from
picking up a notebook when your heart feels too heavy
or to doodle when your mind is too distracted
why waste time on a craft that’s ancient,
redundant and time consuming
why read big, fat books when AI can quote
all the Dostovesky’s and Tolstoy’s of the world for you
in ways and means you never could, never can

while you master prompt engineering
and optimise your tokens

i’ll be walking around my little home studio
that i so gracefully created over the past few years
with a bookshelf big enough my height
stacked with books i hardly understand
but want to read
i might finally pick up something
i have been wanting to read
but could never gather the courage to
two pages later, i would find myself looking for help
i would take few steps into the room
of my wife, who is definitely smarter than me
i would find her with paints
and she might tell me that its alright
if the book is tough to understand
its alright to admit when we
badly want to understand something
but don’t feel ready to do so
i could give her the book to read
so that she could help me
make it a little more interesting

instantly, i might feel less ashamed of leaving things
unattended to, less ashamed of dropping things
when they’re beyond my control
she might just share that her painting is
far from getting completed too
i slyly catch a glimpse of it
it’s the most beautiful sunset i have seen
we acknowledge each other’s
imperfection and like the humans we are
return to our things while sitting next to each other
her, reading my book for me
me, painting the sunset for her
