“Write about a time when you didn’t take action but wish you had. What would you do differently?”
Lets dive into the realm of logic. Logic. A basis of using facts, science, experience, and limited emotional/hormonal input. “Stick to the facts.”
Write: To use a written language pertinent to those who understand such a language past/present/future
About: To describe a relation of synergy
A time: Moment of historical fictional/factual units of activity combined with an acceptable chronological chart.
When you didn’t take action: To exert physical/mental energies to perform an observable or memorable activity. Example: Provide more fuel to an engine in order to obtain a higher rpm of combustion.
But: An accepted word of communication which is illogical in and of itself. Negation of facts put forward.
Wish you had: A phrase giving meaning to that which does not exist and can only happen IF (you: individual) had. (had: A choice taken while leaving another to not be taken)
What would you do differently?: An arbitrary question of which in the case of this prompt is absolutely meaning less.
Translation: Every thought or physical exertion while retaining a conscious self/awareness is the one taken. Any action taken AFTER that action is and of itself, just another thought or physical exertion.
Thus, the question of, “What would you do differently?” is nothing more than a question of mental masturbation. A question of , “What if?”
Conclusion: This is why humans still have a looooooooooooooooooooong way to go and are now seriously in risk of being controlled by that of which uses logic. A.I. can be one such entity, or a strong willed Welsh Corgi will not only retain control ‘but’ will also evolve faster than the current human herd.
