  Artifical Intelligence, a creative look at this tool

  Aug 10, 202643 minS5

  AI can complete virtually any cognitive task, at least as well as a human, and is seeping into all aspects of our lives, including search engines, virtual assistants, language models, strategy games, drone systems, medical advancements, Robotics, autonomous vehicles, and more. And the question is…How will it affect us in the here and now as well as the future? I am digging deeper into the field of AI with two guests today, all from different careers who have used these AI tools, and hear their experiences with AI.

  Katryn Broadoak, Poet, "Ports & Portals" Path of recovery from Breast Cancer

  Apr 28, 202631 minS5

  Katryn Broadoak is a poet, mother, and breast cancer survivor whose life has carried her across five countries and countless inner landscapes. She speaks English and French (and a little Spanish if you’re patient). A lifelong seeker, she writes from the space between faith and freedom. Once steeped in organised religion, her path has evolved into something more eclectic and earth-centered, rooted in reverence for what’s real and unseen alike (with a bit of a penchant for casual blasphemy from time to time). Her poetry is an offering for anyone who’s ever felt lost — a lantern to light the way toward the other side of something hard, something holy, or both.

  Poets for Protest and Resistance

  Mar 15, 202628 minS5

  Artists and writers are the explorers of our souls. They navigate our inner landscapes and delve into the turbulence of our emotions, which are shaped by the world around us—its politics, events, and social changes. Through their work, we gain insight into ourselves and our place within these contexts. Turning fragility into form, silence into art or poetry, darkness into light, by supporting an artist or poet in the most human sense requires risk and acknowledgment—a civic duty that demands our time in a world that devours everything with haste and judgment, seldom pausing for reflection. Poets: Lindsey Hull Rachel Anne Morris Mark Fryburg Magge Dillow
