Us? Jumping on the ChatGPT bandwagon? You bet. It’s sparked fascination, fear, and fun, in all of us at Percept. It’s also sparked a desire from Perceptors to write about it. And actually write – not feed a question into AI-assisted software. There’s a sense that we need to work through how we feel about all this “tech taking over”: is the wolf at the door? Will it be the calculator for writing? Will it make us value human creativity even more?
This is a collection of our reflections on ChatGPT and where it’s taking us. They reflect our diversity of experiences and views and styles (satire, poetry, advocacy), but also share a common grappling with the issues of our time, a need for sense-making, a sensitivity for our context, and a curiosity about what lies ahead.
