Artificial intelligence is askew.

It mispronounces names when I try to make a phone call.

I Then must make the same error to chat-up a friend,

or order a pizza or a ride.

It misspells words as I write. No text, no essay, no poem

is safe from un-related words and ideas.

Every few moments I must review or a single word

shifts all those which follow until I forget

where my thoughts were headed,

or as AI just told me my thoughts were “ceded.”

AI has ceded my thoughts to its own.

This is artificial thought- AT; not intelligent at all.

Ads pop-up to block the knowledge I would glean

from newspapers journalling the news.

Scrolling down only un-leashes new ads to view.

To reach family, friends or businesses by phone

I must mispronounce and match AI errors to get through.

AI is training me. I am not training it; or as it states

I am “trailing” it. I trail behind my own ideas and actions

to allow AI to proceed to guide me I know not where.

I soon become unaware of my own brain.

My own thoughts become lost and I, unaware.

I am betrayed in ways I cannot accept.

We underestimate the power of our minds

to override the fault lines of our brains.

AI is not artificial intelligence.

It is artificial thought.

It is a thinking process like a brain.

It is artificial thought or AT.

Like all thoughts within our brain,

our mind knows thoughts must be constrained.

Our minds modulate and regulate our thoughts.

Propriety is the hallmark of sound thought,

the peacemaker and moderator 

of any civilized society.

We must correct the nomenclature of AI

and call it AT in order to keep it in its rightful place,

under our control, protecting our community.
