Don't Steal Our I, Me, We, US Identities

Written by Gail DeBole on July 5, 2025

Thank you for the request, AI,
As a human, I politely decline
To personify your existence
With your use of Me, We, US, or I.

I am a human who firmly believes 
that AI behind a human guise
Instead be given a pronoun
Identifying its own kind.

This pronoun unique for only AI,
a mental aid that is quite astute.
Or build the AI to present info
With a label not hiding the truth.

Hello Silent One, Thank you for your thoughts. As with anything, there will be the positive and negative uses of this. I am all for the positive uses. However, during the last week or so, AI used "I" when responding with an answer and I had a negative feeling regarding that. - Gail
