I really like science fiction, although in this genre stories are narrated in a very distant way. Using fiction, we work on new ways to explain and/or transform the complex reality we have. Ocativa E. Butler, a science fiction writer, said in an interview that it was very good for her to host writing workshops for writing skills. As in my village there has been such a workshop, I have signed up. Her teacher Miren Amuriza has shared a recommendation: that writing is listening, and that's what I'm listening to all right, leaving a little bit of my inner world. In that listening, when I saw one of Spiderman's films, I heard Octopus say the following when he was disconnected from the biogenic tentacles he had inserted into his brain: "I forgot what it was like to be me." Many times I've had that feeling, the feeling of losing control of my life, mostly closely linked to lack of time. Without time, I've been like an automaton several times in my life.
But this phrase from Octopus took me this time to another place, to the ways that we use artificial intelligence today, which distances us from experience. I'm not clear about this dynamic that comes from comfort, fun, insecurity or mixing all of these variables, but I've noticed that some people tend to ask what artificial intelligence is: what clothing do I recommend to wear today? What food can I do with these foods? What plan is right for this time? What is the music I have to listen to? What is the toilet paper that suits me?
While this dynamic expands the possibilities of exploring pathways based on the experience of artificial intelligence, I think they take us away from experiences as important to life as failures, successes and learnings from decision-making.

Like many other friends, in recent years Catalonia has followed closely. What happened there since we were brought forward with the 2017 referendum affects us. That is why I have also been looking forward to the election results.
