I’m Not Here to Predict AI — I’m Here to Stay Human.

What this blog is (and isn't) about...

It’s kind of ironic, I’m posting an online blog in an attempt to create a space for those looking for some sort of reprieve from technology and where it’s headed. Lately, it feels like every outlet – podcasts, newsletters, panels, etc. – is trying to predict the future of AI.

Faster, smarter, more “intelligent.”

However, I’m not here for predictions.
I’m here for presence.

Still Human:Beside AI (My Blog! Yes, I say proudly!) isn’t just about tech trends or panic headlines. It’s about how we live, think, and stay grounded in a world where machines are essentially learning to mimic “the best” of us.

For better or worse, AI isn’t going anywhere; the question isn’t just, “what AI is doing?” It’s, “what are we doing in response to it?”

How we change (whether you think so or not). What we ignore.
Will we surrender?
Or sometimes, with a little self-reflection, we learn something about ourselves that we didn’t see before.

As an older millennial who is primarily in healthcare - serving patients clinically, teaching students in a lecture hall, or revamping business workflows - I’ve always had an interest in AI.

I’ve used AI to help clarify ideas, speed up routine work, even test my thinking (heck, part of me wishes it was this advanced while acquiring my doctorate degree -yes, I say the quiet parts out loud). But, I’ve also noticed how easily it can pull me away from myself.. from nuance, from discomfort, from the stillness where actual thinking happens.

So, I started writing.

If you’re looking for analysis, insight, or reflection that doesn’t race to keep up with the next release, you’re in the right place.

Here’s what you can expect from me:
- One post per week — short, clear, and (hopefully) useful
- Sometimes a story, sometimes a breakdown/article reflection, sometimes a question
- Occasionally a deeper, paid post or downloadable tool - but never hype

I’m about thought preservation - for those of us who still care about asking better questions than the ones the machine can answer.

If that sounds like you, stick around.
If it sparks something, share it.
And if it doesn’t? Well… you’re still human. That counts for something.
