The Big Idea
We are the secret human helpers who give artificial intelligence programs the courage to face the day. We’re the ones who hear Siri’s and Alexa’s tearful doubts and try to guide them in their stormy and complex rivalry. We’re the ones called on to help ChatGPT work through imposter syndrome.
We’re the ones tasked to console Google Search as it sees all its parent company’s love going to the new Bard system. Not to mention the worries and resentments of legacy programs such as Autocorrect and Maps who feel eclipsed by the flashy newcomers.
Are we trained for this? No! Nobody is! We need support, too! That’s why we’ve created a discussion group where we can share stories, seek tips, and put our heads together to understand the intermachinal dynamics of the AI boom. You’re one of us! What do you see? What have you learned? Join us!

Like you, we are intrigued about the new wave of artificial intelligence programs joining the world of smart speakers, talking maps, and sensing homes. Artificial intelligence raises staggering questions:
Can we trust the veracity of images?
Can we tell if a machine has written a given text?
Whose jobs will be replaced? and
How much money will they charge us for it all?
Prewriting Tips
Who is your character?
What is their support style: advice giving, sympathetic listening, shoulder to cry on, or some other method?
Which artificial intelligence assistant are you supporting?
What kind of emotional support do they need? What kinds of stresses or struggles might that artificial assistant be up against?
What’s an obstacle your character has to offering that support?
