Elena: (laughing softly) "It’s funny. I’ve been studying slime molds for years—how they balance competing priorities without breaking apart. But I never thought about my mind working the same way. My parts are like competing pseudopods, but I can help them stretch and adapt without splitting."

Littoral Leadership: How AI-Powered Self-Differentiation Cures Alienation
In the end, Littoral Leadership is not merely a response to the challenges of AI; it is a reclamation of human identity within a digital landscape. It is the practice of remaining fully present, fully connected, and fully human, even as we embrace the power of computation. It is a way of reversing alienation by bringing AI into alignment with the values and relationships that define us, offering a vision of leadership that is resilient, adaptable, and profoundly grounded in the complexities of both human and digital worlds.
Self-Trifferentiation: Littoral Identity in the Age of AI
The choice is clear: we can either allow AI to shape us passively, or we can take an active role in defining our relationship with it. Self-trifferentiation calls us to stand at the boundary between analog and digital, using AI to expand, not limit, our sense of self. In doing so, we reclaim our identity, building a future where technology enhances rather than diminishes our humanity.
Littoral Identity: Becoming More Human in the Age of AI
