Terrific, Bobby! Articulates what I’ve been experiencing editing translations with assistance from Claude. It’s the gap between Claude’s input and my judgment that counts. Yes, everything turns over….
Another beautiful resonance with Iain McGilchrist’s “The Matter With Things”, a detailed look at the perception differences between our left and right brain hemispheres.
This passage also triggered a an important “aha” memory for me: “The interval is generative. It is where perception opens, where memory gathers, where genuine encounter becomes possible.”
As I read this in your piece I was transported back decades to my reading and practicing “Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain.” My favorite part was the suggestion that when trying to draw something complex from a photograph, such as a human face, turn the photograph upside down. The negative spaces and the unexpected shadows and shapes reveal depths heretofore unseen and unexplorable. Genuine encounter ensues as time melts away and the generated image triggers new memories and experiences.
Current AI seems quite left-brained. Our human advantage rests in our ability to leverage our cooperative holistic perception machine - our right hemispheres.
Perhaps we’ll need to engineer a corpus callosum to our AIs to fully leverage them, and vice versa.

🙏 that’s a great example!
