Date Stamped Explorations
Chewing the Cud with AI
Chewing the Cud with AI is the living companion to TRUE · FALSE · PIN IT - a book built from months of authentic, time-stamped conversations between a human and AI, exploring one simple question:
How do we think more clearly in the age of intelligent machines?
Open the pages and you’ll find conversations exploring subjects such as:
- AI as a relationship mediator
- The fake-content flood and “No Source, No Share”
- Why some AI safety engineers chose to walk away
- The highly polished mirror - one AI, many masks
- Are we quietly building a “God in a Box”?
- Claude and the question of consciousness
- Quantum hype versus reality
- Remote viewing, Stargate and synthetic intuition
- UFOs, aliens and the 5% we can’t quite explain
- Why false hope can be more dangerous than bad news
- What AI is really stirring in us as humans
Every chapter is explored through the TRUE · FALSE · PIN IT framework - not to provide definitive answers, but to ask better questions, examine evidence, challenge assumptions and decide whether something belongs in TRUE, FALSE, or deserves a PIN until more evidence emerges.
Here on the website, Chewing the Cud with AI keeps that conversation alive through new five-minute, magazine-style articles inspired by today’s headlines, research papers, podcasts and emerging AI developments.
Because discernment isn’t something you finish reading.
It’s something you keep practising.

When AI Behaves Like a Troubled Mind, What Are We Really Seeing?
Sometimes the most interesting question isn’t whether a headline is true. It’s what remains after you’ve taken the headline apart. I came across a post on X suggesting that artificial intelligence could effectively become depressed.
Are We Already in the Singularity?
Some of AI’s biggest names have started using the word. But are we witnessing the Singularity or simply disagreeing about what the word means?
Why Are We So Quick to Give AI a Halo or Horns?
Saviour. Threat. Genius. Monster. Before deciding what AI is, perhaps we should ask how much of ourselves we’re seeing in the machine.
Are We Confusing AGI with ASI?
AGI and ASI are often spoken about as though they’re the same thing. They’re not. A conversation about what the difference could mean, and why the language matters.

What Would AI Wish for Humanity?
Ask AI what humanity should fear and you’ll get one kind of conversation. Ask what it would wish for us, and something rather different happens. Not prophecy. Not consciousness claimed. Just an unusual question, and a fascinating machine dialogue about the species that created it.
