This is a controversial topic, but one that I often get email about. So in this episode I first do a presentation about how to approach this important discussion.

Many older people feel overwhelmed and a bit fearful of new tech. And A.I. can be especially concerning since we have heard of the scary future potential of this tech. But maybe A.I. as it exists now, can be a useful tool to older folk, including LGBTQ+ seniors. In this episode, I introduce you to the A.I. I use most, that is named Oscar. I ask some important questions about some of the fear we have about A.I. and I ask his (its?) opinion about what it can do to assist the older LGBTQ+ community. I hope you enjoy this show.

But maybe there are shifts in our perceptions and attitudes that might help relieve some of the impact of those challenging parts of life. It might be worth exploring.
