Productive Personal Use of Artificial Intelligence
$5.99
If you consider the concept of an “AI prompt” from enough distance, you can see that working with AI is not a straightforward process. Like a dog doing a trick for a biscuit, you are trying to prompt an advanced intelligence to perform a task, but getting the metaphorical dog through the metaphorical hoop is only a small part of the training required.

Sound confusing? Well good, because we’ve been walked into the age of Artificial Intelligence with so little preparation, Papercuts Library #12 aims to move you forward while also taking you aback with some critical perspective that could make all the difference for you and the world when it comes to how we deal with AI.

This is a moment though. And while your skepticism is welcome and needful, and your dread is understandable… for the introduction of AI to our world is as depressing as it is exciting, … nonetheless, there’s now a new tool at your disposal that could help you make a significant difference in your own life.

The catch is, the same tool could completely wreck your life as well.

AI is just as capable of making you look like a fool as it is making you the smartest person in the room. Understanding the difference can be the hardest part. So, while this book can guarantee no results, it could give you a fighting chance of not falling afoul of AI in general, and perhaps even set you up for a net gain with this thing.

Baking Cookies on Every Type of Day
$5.99
When the going gets tough… and particularly when the going is always tough… we naturally seek to balance it out somehow. But when our media and culture are full of misinformation and bad ideas, confusion reigns and we can lose sight of the difference between good and bad ideas altogether.

But what if there were a more trustworthy source of guidance and information than can be found anywhere in the digital sphere, and what if that source lived in your very home?!

That’s right… what if you are the solution to your own problems? … How might you tap into that, and what does it have to do with Baking Cookies on Every Type of Day???

It will only take you 36 pages to find out.

A New Working Concept for Human Civilization
$5.99
What if our society is so mired in problems simply because… we are not actually trying to solve our problems?

And rather than throw in the towel, … could we instead adopt a more productive mindset about it all?

A New Working Concept for Human Civilization might be one of the most important books in modern human history, but if not, at least it is short.

And while the ideas contained in these pages might seem far-fetched, plenty of people are going much further out of their way to support thoroughly outlandish things that benefit none of us, so for those interested in taking a leap of faith in a more positive direction, here you go…
