Waking To Absence….
From Bartholomew Barker......
“I am very proud to announce that a new poem of mine, When I Woke Up, has been published at Panoply. Many thanks to the editors Andrea, Clara, and Jeff for accepting my work.”

I read this poem – and my comment on Bartholomew’s Blog page is…”I read it – that happens – you catch it. I now need to re-adjust to today.”
When my Dad died and when my brother died - I'd talk with them in dreams - wake up wanting to tell everyone that there'd been a mistake - then - the reality would hit me.
Bart's poem brought that back to me.

“ChatGPT: A Partner in Unknowing
by Dana Karout
“When we step back from our default coding, we can choose differently, stepping into the unknown rather than the familiar.”
ChatGPT has divided opinion on how artificial intelligence might shape our future: Is it a harbinger of our demise? Or a friend, arrived just in time to guide us through our collective unraveling? A logical, binary intelligence model made in our very image, ChatGPT responds to all we ask it, but it often isn’t saying anything meaningful at all. What if its greater purpose lies not in its ability to give us answers, but in its potential to take them away?
In this week’s story, writer and adaptive leadership trainer Dana Karout pokes fun at how ChatGPT mirrors our own limited ways of thinking. Drawing on her work helping communities navigate conflict and complexity, she pushes us to resist regurgitating what we already know in situations that, in fact, demand new ways of being. As we try to address the existential challenges mounting around the world—ecological, social, spiritual—could ChatGPT’s empty spiels help us let go of our certainties? What true creativity, what real responses to our moment of crisis, might emerge from our unknowing?
