Meister Magoo

....is just a convenient pen name. My name is Ben and I wrote Authentic Intelligence after crashing out of the workplace. I pledged to write a book in one month on

    - How I manage to survive and be happy
    - Why I crashed out and what to do about it
    - How to relight my fire now that AI is about to rule – or is it?

Book Two explores the question ‘what is an MVP (Minimum Viable Person)?’

For me, attention was collapsing entirely, that is just a fact. I elected to lean into Silicon Intelligence (aka AI) as a mental prosthetic. If the innovation trend continues and attention collapses into a mental singularity, what does that feel like? It cannot be imagined or described, for who or what witnesses that act? This may be a false argument, an ‘argument from consequences’. So what!! That is part of the challenge (plus it is geat fun). To re-learn how to trust no-one in an open and healthy way.

The Story so Far

  • Authentic Intelligence

    he first book set out navigation and mental safety principles, including five challenges. One challenge is habits and practise for living. The challenge makes many references to the evergreen Indistractable by Nir Eyal and Atomic Habits by James clear. Both Authors make consistent references to internal versus external triggers and factors. There is a catch however. There always is…..

  • Running Out Of Time

    What if AI ends up as a mental merger and not simply a prosthesis? Surely that would present a whole new class of distraction, neither internal nor external? Book two will zoom further into the idea of an MVP by considering a series of propositions.
