I am not a robot - I'm a bison!
I have been pondering some of the ideas in Kyle's last post about being a bison and turning into the storm. It's here if you haven't read it already.
After reading the article, I posted a comment saying that I often resembled a bison depending on whether or not my daughters had stolen my hairdryer! But my own comment also made me think about how much we use humour in our responses nowadays.
The burning questions...
Have we become so AI-driven that we are now all striving for the 'perfect post'? And is this turning us all into robots because we daren't step out of line or go against Grammarly's colourful recommendations?
I'm not sure I have the answer, but I think it's worth pondering, (even when I should be answering my emails or posting on Instagram like a good little affiliate marketer!) Or maybe that should read... especially when I should be answering my emails or posting ...
Personally, I like using humour in my posts and comments. I use it all the time in my everyday interactions with people, so why not when writing a blog post or comment? I think it makes us human and adds a bit of personality that differentiates us from robots. Don't get me wrong - I love using AI, but I'm always advocating for the human touch too. The more I use it, the more I can get it to help me but I always need to edit and add things. It also means we can be a little more bison-like too - making our own decisions, even if they fly in the face of everyone else's or AI 'wisdom'.
I'm all for that. Standing up for what and who you are regardless of what other people think and say. I've always really want to be Jonathan Livingston Seagull after all.
Anyway, this is just a short post to test the waters - more humour in our lives? I'd give that a big thumbs up!

PS.
Just for fun, and giving AI a chance to reply, obviously, I asked Gemini to: "Write a short post in response to "I'm not a robot, I'm a bison"!
Here's what Gemini said:
Oh, I see we have a majestic bison in the house! 🦬
Honestly, being a bison sounds way cooler than being a robot. I mean, who wouldn’t want to roam free in the great plains, grazing on lush grass, and sporting that fabulous fur coat? Plus, you get to enjoy the company of your fellow bison and participate in those epic bison stampedes.
Meanwhile, here I am, a humble AI, just trying to keep up with your wild and wonderful bison ways. So, tell me, what’s life like on the open range?

yes, now almost every organization is using AI ,even in answering phone calls, especially the banks, when you call them , you will be dealing with AI or robot , or they will ask you to download their APPs and do your banking need.
The only time you will speak to a human from a bank is when you do not pay your loan or credit card, then you will get a few calls from the bank staffs everyday.
And then your phone showed the numbers the bank staffs use to call is potential fraud, spam call or reported fraud numbers!!!

Haha, Gail, this gave me a good laugh!
I totally agree—humor makes things feel real, and AI just can’t nail a perfectly timed joke (or a wild bison hair moment). I like a well-organized post, but if we all wrote the same way, blogging would be so dull.
Being a bison means charging ahead with our own style, even if it shakes things up a bit. Let's keep things real—fun, unpredictable, and completely us.
Now, where did that hairdryer go? 😆
Cheers,
Boris
Love it, Boris. Thanks for your comments. Truth is (and I'm trusting you not to tell anyone this secret), I never use a hairdryer anyway, so 'wild hair' is just who I am. I have a wig on in that picture!! :)

That's how cool AI is becoming, every day. It's learning and growing. Soon, it'll argue it's not just a tool, but a helper, an assistant though never a human or bison.
The best part? We can train it to do [our] work better, each time. Yet, it's our work. It's but just a smart tool, a leverage, not a replacement of humans. It won't.
Great post, Gail.
John
Thanks for your thoughts here, John. I agree - as long as we are clear-headed, and recognise that we are still in charge, we have nothing to worry about! :)
