WORKSHOP

ETHOS Gardening with ChatGPT

Practice

Workshop overview

You want to back what you believe in with action, but the gap between your good intentions and your practice often feels insurmountable. Join us for an ETHOS Gardening session in which you’ll discover your personal ETHOS Garden and learn how to nurture your values or principles with a variety of elemental pledges.

In this 2-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to close your intent to action gap in an embodied way that will feed your moral imagination. And we’ll enlist the help of ChatGPT as a garden golem to inspire you to write more diverse pledges that will turn the seeds of good intentions into thriving flora in your personal ETHOS Garden.

Aims

The aim of this workshop is to help you see your values or principles as seeds of good intentions that you can bring to life in your ETHOS Garden with actionable pledges.

Writing good actionable pledges that feel right to you and fit your context can be a challenging process, so you’ll learn how to elicit diverse pledge suggestions from ChatGPT and explore how AI-generated pledges make you feel.

You’ll get to experiment with different elements and modalities of pledges to inspire you to initiate, deepen, or transform your daily practice, exploration, collaboration, or reflection. Through this process, you’ll enrich your moral imagination and experience a more embodied way of closing your intent to action gap.
