Under the Black Moon we wonder: what now? Can we stop pretending everything is fine? Is it time to root and ground in place? This time we allow ourselves to get real, raw, and personal with you as we reflect on what feels worth nurturing going forward.
This new moon, we wonder how AI agents will deal with cookie consent banners, explore both human and AI conversational powers – and responsibilities –, and invite you to visit a library.
This new moon, we try to reason with strawberries, look for human and AI companions for our fellowship, and try out tools that might just help us find paths that lead to preferable futures.
ETHOS, your responsible tech journey companion, has been replanted and now invites you to explore intents, take a moment for reflection, and gaze into Tethix Mirrors.
While Big Tech refuses to embrace the demure and mindful trend, we sing to a burning planet, explore some recent research on LLMs, and wonder whether AI chatbots could help us get our sh*t together.
Is AI emotional lock-in the competitive advantage tech companies need to make switching not only costly but emotionally painful and harder to regulate?
We coddiwomple towards a harmonious future in which AIs & humans form a mutually beneficial creative alliance by exploring the context in which we all live, and wondering who to place our faith in.
We try to escape the AI rat race by slowing down & playing with time. We listen for storms brewing in the distance while harvesting corn that might reveal diverse rainbow visions of our tech futures.
While uncle Sam, Mark & co. need you to feed their AI golem armies, we share recipes for home-made software, look for plurality & weirdness online, challenge AI companies to think different, and more.
This new moon, we counter the AI-assisted dematerialisation of the workforce and disembodiment of knowledge by delving into weirdness, grandmotherly wisdom, communal gardens, a new podcast, and more.
At Tethix, we planted a new podcast for all wondering wanderers, eager to explore paths to better tech futures, together. Tune in every waning moon as I reflect on the lunacy of tech in the company of my fellow firekeeper Mathew Mytka.
We play responsibility hot potato with Big Tech as we try to understand how AI is supposed to benefit humanity when being raised under poor parental guidance and a nutritionally deficient data diet.
