Looking for something to write about?

This might tickle thy fancy.

I wrote a book. So I’m going to do something mildly embarrassing and ask you to write about said book.

It came out three days ago. It’s called Cognitive Sovereignty: How to Think for Yourself When AI Thinks for You.

It’s already top 5 in a couple of categories but whatever. It’s what in the book that matters.

The central argument is that every time you let AI do your thinking for you, you get a little bit worse at thinking. Slowly, and through covenience, not coercion.

The book isn’t an anti-AI diatribe… nor breathless tribute to tight-shirted tech bros with too much gel in their hair.

The argument is subtler than that, in that there’s a meaningful difference between AI that extends your thinking and AI that replaces it, and most people are doing the second thing while firmly believing they’re doing the first.

Now here’s why this is actually useful for you specifically.

You need something to write about today.
have a book about something your readers are definitely doing and probably haven’t thought critically about.
Your readers get a genuinely interesting idea.
You get to look like the person who brought it to them first.
I get a mention. Everyone wins.

This is what diplomats call a mutually beneficial arrangement and what normal people call a decent deal.

It also, frankly, positions you well. AI noise, I mean, content is everywhere. Shallow AI hot takes are even more everywhere. This is better than that. It’s signal and it’s good. It’ll make you look good.

Everything you need is at cognitivesovereignty.io

Angles, hooks, key ideas, the works. It’s all there. I’ve done the heavy lifting. Which is ironic, given what the book is about.

Cheers

Steve
