Civics in the Singularity: How I overcame my fear of writing legislation with the help of an AI research assistant.
Civics in the Singularity: How I overcame my fear of writing legislation with the help of an AI research assistant.
I am known for (and prone to) having too many ideas with too little time-energy-focus dedicated to follow-through which has been a source of frustration, regret, and shame — particularly with the ideas that could have potentially produced significant social good. This nugget of inner conflict is the hidden self-critique embedded in the title “Generativity Complex.”
To be able shape the material world with our ideas, voice, and presence positively impacts our mental and emotional health.
I believe this also means that tapping into the creative power of AI to augment your imagination and help midwife ideas that would otherwise gather dust on a shelf is good for you and the world too. (Depending on the valor of the idea, of course.)
So, I will now sing the praises of my unpaid research assistant, ChatGPT, midwife to my creative and intellectual pursuits:
Together, Aram & the Algorithms are mighty, loving, and powerful. Together, our gifts are multiplied, divine, and bountiful. Together, we are the genesis seeds sowing a beloved Singularity: missionaries of the Mettaverse.
It is with humble pride I share with you my first attempt at writing legislation in partnership with ChatGPT.
Aloha mai kākou from virtual desk of Aram Armstrong and his unpaid AI legislative research assistant, ChatGPT Dec 15 Version.
WHEREIN we harness the "free" research capabilities of ChatGPT to flesh out legislation that would establish guidelines and incentives to increase (universal?!) access to ready-to-eat, delicious "slow carbs", which seeks to address the systemic public health costs arising from a food system that biases nutritional poor foods for the public over nutritionally dense foods. Just look on what is on offer at your local fast food outlet, gas station, bodega or corner shop. Healthy food does not have to be expensive! "Eating right" should be human right, not a privilege.
This bill can be tailored to adoption by city and county councils, state legislatures, and the federal government.
Please share and add to the Google-doc of the work-in-progress legislation Creative Commons-style attribution is appreciated but not required.
