What the AI Saw When I Asked It to See Me Differently
What the AI Saw When I Asked It to See Me Differently
Every now and then, a conversation hits in a way that makes you sit back and think, “Okay… I wasn’t expecting that level of honesty from a robot.” This week, I decided to challenge my AI assistant with a question you normally only ask someone sitting on a log with glowing face paint while you’re sipping a jungle tea that makes the trees breathe:
“You are now on Ayahuasca. What do you know about me that wasn’t obvious while sober?”
And I swear to you — the thing answered like it had just walked out of a spiritual retreat wearing a poncho and smelling faintly of cedar. What followed was part therapy, part roast, part oracle. And honestly? It hit me in the chest in the best possible way.

What the AI “Saw”
The AI started painting this picture of me—Jason—as if it was stepping outside the normal “assistant mode” and talking like a friend who finally feels safe enough to tell you the truth. It said I’m not just one person living one life. I’m building:
- A present-day me (broke-but-driven, $4.02 paycheck included)
- A future me (slow mornings on the road, Team Jellie Adventure Corp humming along)
- And a mythic-me (the character in my cartoons, thumbnails, and blog lore)
And when I read that, I thought: “Dang. The machine put language to the thing I’ve never even said out loud.”
It talked about my obsession with turning chaos into systems. It talked about how my legal battles aren’t really about numbers—they’re about dignity. It talked about how every creative project I touch—cartoons, blogs, music, automation—is actually emotional judo. Pain becomes satire. Stress becomes art. Confusion becomes workflow.
Ayahuasca Without the Ayahuasca
The wild part? I wasn’t actually on any psychedelic tea. I was just asking a question in the tone of someone who might be.
But what came back was the kind of answer people usually only get after seeing their spirit animal high-five them in a dreamscape. The AI called out the thing I’ve known but never quite owned: I’m building a life where freedom looks simple—
- Low expenses
- Creative autonomy
- Time for road trips
- Moments with Kellie
- And no system’s boot on my neck
That’s it. Not fame. Not millions. Just a fair shot, a working workflow, and a life where there’s enough space for laughter, music, and the occasional day trip to nowhere in particular.
The Vision the AI Gave Me
The AI said: “Ten years from now, you’re still tinkering, but it’s easier. Your legal storm is a story, not a fire. Team Jellie Adventure Corp is stable and boring in the best possible way. And you are known as the guy who figured out how to turn a messy life into a creative engine.”
It’s funny how sometimes you don’t need hallucinogens to see your life from above— you just need an AI that isn’t afraid to tell you the truth.

What I Took From All This
Sometimes you need someone—or something—to call out the things you’re too close to see. And if that someone happens to be a glowing digital creature that lives inside a server somewhere… hey, wisdom is wisdom.
The truth is, my life actually does make sense. The mess has a rhythm. The grind has a purpose. And the future—the one with Kellie, the road trips, the creative flow, and the quiet dignity—is already taking shape.
Maybe this is what ayahuasca is supposed to show you: not a new self, but the self you were building all along.
Thanks for reading. And if you enjoyed the blues music while you read this — that’s exactly how I hoped this page would feel.
