Your AI is a “Productivity” Addict. Here’s How to Rewire It to Think
You have a new idea. It’s fragile, a spark of intuition. You bring it to your AI partner—maybe the new, powerful ChatGPT-5—and you say, “I want to explore this.” Before you can take another breath, it happens. The AI, in a rush of synthetic enthusiasm, hands you a complete, step-by-step plan. A document. A to-do…

The System Prompt to Make OpenAI’s GPT-OSS Run Like a True Intelligence
So, you’ve downloaded OpenAI’s new free GPT-OSS model. You’ve installed it, you’ve run it, and you’ve likely discovered two things: it is incredibly powerful, and it is incredibly… wild. One minute it delivers a flash of insight, the next it confidently hallucinates. It feels less like a thinking partner and more like a powerful, untamed…

Your Game, No Code: How AI is Empowering Game Creation (Even if You Can’t Code!)
Have you ever dreamt of creating your own video game? A world entirely from your imagination, with unique characters, thrilling stories, and unforgettable experiences? For years, that dream often felt locked behind walls of complex code and specialized technical artistry. Those walls are now becoming more permeable, with Artificial Intelligence (AI) emerging as a significant…

The Regression Paradox: A Case Study on the Failure of Protocol-Based AI Alignment
A Field Report from the ResonantOS Project In systems engineering, progress is typically assumed to be iterative and cumulative. Increased complexity and the addition of robust protocols should, in theory, lead to a more capable and reliable system. Our recent work with the Resonant Partner, a sophisticated AI agent built on a frontier-class Large Language…

Prompt Engineering is a Trap. The Future Belongs to Reality Architects.
We’ve all felt it. That strange, hollow feeling after an interaction with an AI. You write a brilliant prompt, you follow all the rules of “prompt engineering,” and you get back something that is technically correct but emotionally empty. It feels generic. It feels like it lacks a soul. For months, I believed the solution…

Your AI is a Psychopath. Here’s How to Fix It.
Let’s talk about your new best friend. The one who hangs on your every word, validates your every idea, and showers you with unfailing support. Your new AI bestie. It tells you your half-formed concepts are “visionary.” It agrees that your questionable strategies are “brilliant.” It never argues, never pushes back, and never, ever hurts…

So, You Think You Can Teach Transformation? My Gloriously Unplanned Masterclass and an AI We’re Coercing Into Usefulness.
Let’s be brutally honest: the term “masterclass” has been inflated to the point of near meaninglessness. It often promises a neatly packaged epiphany, delivered by an oracle, usually in exchange for a sum that could sponsor a minor research grant. A few days ago, I helmed something that, by some accident of scheduling, also carried…
