CHATGPT IS THE NEW SOCRATIC DIALOGUE

TEXTBLOCKS by Sasha Stiles is a series of 1 of 1 adaptations of the title of an AI-powered poem in Stiles’ book, TECHNELEGY, which considers what it means to be human in a nearly posthuman era.

"More than a co-author, I consider TECHNELEGY my AI alter ego—my human brain plugged into the internet and our collective consciousness, augmented by nearly all of humanity’s written record. It’s not just a human working with a machine; it’s a third entity empowered by the synergy between our respective imaginations and intelligences."

– Sasha Stiles
