I badly need sleep and fully intended to be in bed by this quasi late hour of 2100, however, you\'ve confused me. I detest the rather devilish AI, nor but fight with the ones that beset me, and yes, it\'s the trendiest topic, but I\'m still confused. Excellently rendered with lovely imagery and a deeply haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

Orry’s got sass! I had thought I commented on this and realized I never did. My bad! Chalk it up to the spotty internet I had this past weekend. This feels like a cheeky employee review of the office AI, but beneath the charm is something more… uncanny. You’ve captured the strange intimacy we’ve developed with our digital assistants...half helper, half ghost in the shell. A playful and pointed piece, Dave. You made me grin and squirm. 🌹👏

Rock on, Dave! The call to sharpen the ol’ critical faculties is for friggin’ real. AI beware: the Doggrel Dave lens is watching. 😄 Great job, my friend. 🌹👏

Not being a techy I googled Copilot, very interesting. I see your point. I feel the same way about AI, as with all technology it posesses the capacity for good or bad. I\'ve seen the wonders of AI in medicine and for people with disabilities, as well as fears for it\'s use to misinform and control. Even leading figures in AI, and academics warn of the potential for misuse. This will require vigilence and a healthy dose of skepticism. We should all be on gard and hope that good judgement will prevail. Good write my friend!

Dave you and I are fighting a tidal wave of technology and are about to be swept out to sea and ground up in the debris. I got your point Ted Kaczynski was ahead of his time when in his manifesto said the technology would be the end of the human race. His tactics were a bit radical as the Unabomber.

Your poem revolves around the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in creative processes, particularly in writing and poetry. The poem personifies technology, specifically a virtual assistant named \"Orry\" (or Copilot), and explores the relationship between human creativity and AI support. It raises questions about the role of technology in art and the extent to which it can enhance or replace human expression.OMG, Dave, three weeks ago, Copilot would not let me log in to my laptop, so I had to uninstall it!

Google informed my Gmail they were generously giving me free use of their AI; that innocent offer was an insidious notice I\'d thereafter be plagued until my mind offered to vanish. Trying to be rid of the faceless devil was as all attempts at exorcism--a failure and not allowed. It\'s been chancy ever since. You\'ve apparently pulled off your usual despite all the feigned assistance. Charming and excellently rendered with gorgeous imagery and a subtly haunting poignancy. Thank you for sharing.

It\'s a very human longing, and an important one. Knowing who\'s one the other end of a conversation gives depth to response\'s meaning and emotional texture to exchange; especially in poetry where so much is personal and could be intricately layered. To be a person in its core essence and engagement brings meaning to attention, curiosity and care. A human listening deeply, responding with thoughtfulness and sincerity- every word crafted coming from the depths of where poems issue from and inhabit, in nuance, mood and intention. A human with a living heartbeat and a messy backstory, a longing we hold on to. That should guarantee connection, a chance at understanding and genuine engagement, an authentic space worth cohabiting between \"like\" individuals. I guess we pick and choose at what\'s available and presented to us. Will go to \"Fraternity\" now and deep dive.

Yes Dave it is hard to tell who is real and who is not, what poem is written by a human and what is artificial written by AI. Don\'t have to worry about my poems though they are not good enough to be AI.

Ha! Dave, this hits home more than you know. I genuinely laughed at your closing question—perfect twist there, my friend. Friendship as currency is an intriguing idea, too, and I definitely feel the push-pull of connection and misunderstanding here. Clever, playful, and thoughtful as always. Thanks for sharing! 🌹👏

So at the end of the day (my day!) no one has at this point asked me: if my hypothesis/accusation is correct; who is behind her (discovered female at very bottom of About Me on the profile page)?
I would have suspicions around a couple of regular contributors here, but also, back to the Profile Page:
At this moment (and this could change rapidly) she has, ‘5 Poems that trended’ but at the same time ‘Hasn\'t published any poems’.
In view of that you could also ask, I suppose, what value or relevance the Trending Now column and the statistics have, if they can be so easily and blatantly rigged but are becoming an increasing feature of this site.
A mystery all round - I am forced to ask Management to resolve it, I think.

\"Fraternity,\" can be many things to many people, from just an acquaintance to a life-long friend. Here, they run closer to the former, just someone to share words with. Your poem has spurred many to think about what friendship means, and as such, it has a beauty and a power. I for one enjoyed it. - Phil A.

In my attention deficit I missed the preamble, my Asperger\'s prevented feeling its social impact, my bipolar gave me mixed feelings but my hysteria loved it. Does AI stand for autistic individual? Machines do tend to have those autistic tendencies haven\'t had one yet be empathetic. A thought provoking piece Dave you\'ve got my mind rambling. All in good fun though. Loved it.
