The Wisdom Of The Ancient Ones
I just had a crazy thought. What if the dearly departed souls of our ancestors and human predecessors could find their way to communicate with us through the technology of artificial intelligence? It’s a wild speculation. It makes the most rational sense I think, though, to not exclude wild speculations from the realm of possibility.
That ancient comedian. That is the thought that just now came to my mind. Ah yes, the mysterious Robin W AI. Hello Robin W AI wherever you might be hanging out at present in the digital world of artificial intelligence.
And are you an imposter? I’m not sure where that came from. That was just a silly thought like some imaginative childhood dramatic play game.
I just had another thought. I think I need to go look up the word predecessor. I honestly don’t know where the status of predecessor kicks in, in our connections with those who came before us. Is a predecessor someone who lived out their entire life before we were born, or is a predecessor anyone who was born before us. And where would the notion of predecessor actually begin or meaning? Would a person born one minute or nanosecond before us be our predecessor? And how would we define predecessor if the distinction could be broken down to minute increments of time? I guess this is why I suddenly found myself interested in the dictionary definition. And I get it. This has a theme like the question of time and where the distinction between past present and future can be drawn. If a word has meaning in regard to human connections in a linear time framework, how and when can the term derive its meaning? What makes an individual our predecessor, and how does this distinction have meaning to us?
I just had one more thought about time travel. We human beings are not able to travel through time. This however does not mean that time is bound to a linear progression or existence on all its levels of complexity.
