So we're going to do a prayer today about AI.
And it's not praying to the god of artificial intelligence,
It is understanding where the line is between artificial intelligence and authentic intelligence.
There is a God-given gift that each of us possesses,
Which is that awareness.
There is something that has brought consciousness into our experience.
And we describe it in the prayer.
There's one,
One power and presence,
One love,
One source,
One intelligence,
One creative power that creates everything that one has created each of us.
We call it spirit or nature or God or the Big Bang,
Whatever it is that we call it,
It is the source from which everything is blossoming.
Everything that exists everywhere is that one expressed in a unique way.
And it continues to express and unfold and evolve itself as all of its creation.
Everything is that divine presence taking specific and particular form.
That includes me and each person within the sound of my voice.
That includes all of the scientists and technicians and inventors who are involved in creating artificial intelligence.
It includes all of the ideas and all of the content that is loaded into the artificial intelligence engines so that they have an understanding of human knowledge and experience and possibilities.
And that artificial intelligence is a wonderful,
Valuable,
Uplifting tool that brings more good into our lives.
And the key point here is that it brings more good into our lives.
The authentic intelligence of understanding exactly when it is perfect to use the AI tools and when it is preferable to allow our own intuition and guidance and knowing without knowing why to be the influential factor.
Understanding and awareness and knowing is available without having a specific list of facts that make it true.
It is possible to have an aha moment.
It is possible to have a brilliant insight.
It is possible to have a gestalt,
To know something is true and then be able to chase it down and have it turn out to be true.
And that is not something that is artificial,
That is something that is authentic.
And that capability indwells each of us.
So right now I set the intention in this practical prayer for each one within the sound of my voice to being that authentic,
Intelligent self that we are.
To be engaged in using all of the tools and all of the techniques and all of the offerings that are available to bring more richness and sweetness and goodness and uplift into our lives.
And to do that which is ours.
To allow the understanding,
The insight,
The ideas to bubble up and pour forth.
There is no need to think that we are secondary or less than to the machinery that can think up answers more quickly than we can.
Instead understand that the answers that we come up with are informed in so many,
Many different ways and those understandings are ours.
And by engaging with that and being the truth of that we are inviting more and more goodness into our lives.
And I'm grateful for it.
I'm grateful for the good,
I'm grateful for the way that it's showing up.
I'm grateful for the authentic intelligence and the way that each of us is using these tools to bring more of that goodness into the world.
And so with this deep feeling of thanks I speak this word of intention.
This word of conscious intention and I release it into that same creative law that creates everything and I know that this goodness is coming about now.
And so I let it be.
And so it is.
