THOM THE WORLD POET: The Daily Poem

  

Rob Ayling, yer Gonzo Grande Fromage, writes:

"Thom the World poet is an old mate of mine from way back in my history. Even pre-dating Voiceprint, when I was running "Otter Songs" and Thom's poetry tapes and guest appearances with Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth and Mother Gong are well known and highly regarded. It just felt right to include a daily poem from Thom on our Gonzo blog and when I approached him to do so, he replied within seconds!!! Thom is a great talent and just wants to spread poetry, light and positive energy across the globe. If we at Gonzo can help him do that - why not?"

EIGHT-FOLD A.I GREW LIKE TOPSY
Dived in popularity as start-ups stalled
Even a Silicon Valley Bank turned up failed
Making investors nervous ,and growth stalled..
Mind you,the function of A.I in skills-based employment selection is good
Function means more than a degree,and maths &apps are not racist.
However,ethics may not apply to A.I.You can find
the most competent butcher,but not for a vegan restaurant.
Those who use and create Chat GPT may have unconscious value systems
Users may not be entirely aware of their deficiencies,until results fail
to locate the best candidate for socially or politically sensitive positions.
Morality does not apply to A.I.We are all programmed.
Is it the app becomes scapegoat,when self-driving cars kill,
or Presidents behave like terrorists.Simulation is not reality.
Deepfake is not reality.Are we all programmed?

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
