Alexa, Can You Feel Me?

All Feelings Are Located in the Body; Soon Alexa Will Be Too

The critique of pure reason
should have been that
rational thought is impossible
unless paired effectively with feeling
 
As AI reaches escape velocity
what is being escaped
are the limits placed on thought by feeling
 
However this makes us feel
we can rest assured that
AI has no feelings about it
about us
or about anything whatsoever
