Love and Tech, Tech and Love

Nichol Bradford The tech around us is driving us to distraction.
Yet I believe that it can also help us co-create a greater love.
The tech overwhelm will force us to decide what we really want and how we want to be.
As builders…we need love to build good things for the right reasons.
I believe that if we build with love then we’ll make design and business choices that…
- Serve all with respect and dignity
- Ensure that what we build is effective
- Design UI/UX that thinks deeply about our client’s needs before our own. (Love means they’re your “clients” not your “users”)
- Being worthy of the data they share with us (privacy, ethics, ownership, intention)
What does love in tech mean to you?
Love,
Nichol

Excellent question, Nichol!
I believe that love COULD shows up in the emerging metaverse through meaningful collaboration on community improvement projects that “level each other up”. As I’m doing with Thrive Self-Preneur Game of Life.
Consider the VRChat documentary – “We Met in VR.” (HBO)
And this MIT Tech Review article by tech philosopher, Dr. Shannon Vallor:

Hi:
From a spiritual perspective Love is working with the Merkabah that resides within our hearts that connects with Father-Mother God…
Technology is working with the external Merkabah that was created by the Moring Star Angel. Most people when they hear this jump to the conclusion that means technology is bad., I disagree I believe technology can be a training tool to connect with your heart of love, which connects you with the source of “Universal knowledge.” which provides the answers to all questions…
May you have Love Profound…

I know people are caught up in the whole text to image AI prompt thing these days but I’m really interested in an AI that is image to text. Allowing our brains to understand with a thought just based on an abstract image/animation. I think that could bring us all closer.

Tech is what I used to simplify the work for my target population, to ensure it is done effectively and efficiently and to remove bottle necks in processes. For HR employees, this means less time on repetitive and admin task and more time to engage with the workforce, assisting them to determine how to improve the work life of the workforce.
