Widespread apathy grips unanchored hearts,
Spirituality grows dim on the whole,
Humanity loiters in fits and starts
And lets machines fall heir to our shared soul.
© Ilija Lukić 2023
Regardless of whether artificial intelligence (AI) breakthroughs turn out to be a sinister or benevolent force in our lives, machines will soon be in the driver’s seat lest we insist that humanness not falter in our interactions with each other and machines.
Reflections On Humanness
