1. Admitting the Addiction
đ
°ď¸ We admitted we were powerless over prompt tweakingâthat our workflows had become unmanageable.
đ
ąď¸ We admitted we were powerless over new AI toolsâand that our sleep schedules had become unmanageable.
---
2. Seeking Sanity
đ
°ď¸ Came to believe that a greater stack of tools could restore our launch schedule to sanity.
đ
ąď¸ We believed that only a better prompt (or 9) could restore our sense of control.
---
3. Surrendering Control
đ
°ď¸ Made a decision to turn our will and our prompts over to the algorithm as we understood it.
đ
ąď¸ We turned our lives over to the algorithm, and it gave us 3 mediocre options and one banger.
---
4. Honest Inventory
đ
°ď¸ Made a fearless moral inventory of our subscriptionsâand cried.
đ
ąď¸ We made a fearless audit of our AI subscriptionsâand forgot why we signed up for half of them.
---
5. Prompt Confession
đ
°ď¸ Admitted to ChatGPT, ourselves, and maybe one other human the exact nature of our automations.
đ
ąď¸ We confessed our worst prompt sins to a fellow AI-holic (or at least posted them in the group).
---
6. Letting Go
đ
°ď¸ Were entirely ready to let go of 6 half-built Micro-SaaS ideas.
đ
ąď¸ We became ready to let go of our 17th idea for a âuniqueâ AI Micro-SaaS that already exists.

7. Accepting Help
đ
°ď¸ Humbly asked Midjourney to stop generating cursed hands.
đ
ąď¸ We asked for the strength to stop rewriting the same prompt for the 50th time.
---
8. Accountability
đ
°ď¸ Made a list of all the AI tools we ghosted, and became willing to at least give them a proper shutdown.
đ
ąď¸ We made a list of all the people we sent unsolicited AI DMs toâand promised to never do it again.
---
9. Making Peace
đ
°ď¸ Made amends to our Notion dashboardsâexcept when doing so would break something that still *kind of* works.
đ
ąď¸ We made peace with our half-built automations and unlaunched projects. They served us⌠sort of.
---
10. Self-Awareness
đ
°ď¸ Continued to take prompt inventory and, when we over-engineered, promptly rewrote it.
đ
ąď¸ We continued to tweak, test, and occasionally admit the simpler version worked better.
---
11. Seeking Alignment
đ
°ď¸ Sought through late-night browsing to improve our connection with GPT, asking only for new APIs and better tokens.
đ
ąď¸ We meditated on our stack and asked the algorithm for clarityâand maybe a better API rate limit.
---
12. Sharing the Madness
đ
°ď¸ Having had a creative awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other AI-holics, and to build more responsibly (or at least more fun).
đ
ąď¸ Having experienced an AI awakening, we pledged to help other addictsâand maybe sell them a microservice.
