Great article! I loved the way you talked about the three points that are our competitive advantage against AI and I loved your phrase "unfiltered human presence and critical verification".

AI is a very powerful tool and I think often how important is to have critical eye for the inputs and outputs it produces, so I loved your added perspective of using simpler language (The dante analogy was so cool).

The point of interacting and connecting with other humans is so important in this AI times and so is the one of resting. We live in very fast times so slowing down and taking a step back is a brilliant reminder.

Thanks so much Maggie, I’m a huge Dante fan and think it’s his time for a reboot. I’ve been through the AI anxiety a few times now, it’s a tough habit to crack

Ludo, I really enjoyed your perspective on this! ❤️ The idea of making a “Dante Move” rather than trying to compete with AI on its own terms is brilliant!

I use AI quite a lot in my work, but I also facilitate workshops where people explore their thoughts and experiences through simple drawings and conversations. And the more I do this, the more I appreciate the value of genuine human connection.

I particularly liked your reminder to step away from the screen and find real humans. Technology can help us do so much, but we shouldn’t lose ourselves in the process! 💛

Thank you so much ! I should have ended by saying “and bring a pencil” because right now, this Sunday , I am reading this before sitting out in the autumn sunshine to sketch and doodle, as you advise so often 😌

That made me smile, Ludo! 😍 “And bring a pencil” would have been the perfect ending! ✏️

I hope you enjoy your sketching in the autumn sunshine! 🍂

I've actually just created a Feelings Workbook for my paid subscribers, with simple comic-drawing exercises to explore our emotions. So your comment about bringing a pencil couldn't have been better timed! 😄💛
