I think you might have confused a couple of words in this post that are fairly important. métis (said may-tee) refers to a distinct indigenous peoples in Canada. The Titan Goddess of Wise Council is "Metis" (said met-iss). Unfortunately this error makes it seem like this whole post was written by AI.

Good catch. I do use AI a lot ... my substack is called Cyborg's writing 😆.

But actually, its my text expander. In my mind, I was seeing this: Mêtis ... but the text expander was changing metis to Métis. I'll have to fix my text expander.

100% of the time someone "accuses" me of using AI because of a mistake, it is actually a human error and has nothing to do with AI. That's one reason I don't do it.

But I do appreciate the correction!

I love the idea of Mêtis. It's very similar to the application of Fides to the ideas of Autonomy that I've explored before. Very fun to see how they weave to gether.

Oooh. I like that. It makes me think of the importance of ethos, especially in today's creator environment. Can you share you a link to where you write about this?

This one jumps to the rethinking of Trust. I want to do another explaining how studying the goddess Fodes helped shift our perspective from trust to entrust.
