Practical AI security guidance to keep everyone grounded
AI no longer just influences what you see, it increasingly shapes how you think, decide, and trust. This article explains the layered risks of modern AI systems, from synthetic empathy to quiet dependency, and why awareness matters more than fear.
Your emotional data is becoming the most valuable—and dangerous—resource in generative AI. Learn how AI prediction models evolve, why personal data fuels them, and how to protect yourself from entering a predictive state.
AI can feel empathetic, but it isn't. This article explains how generative AI mirrors your emotions, validates your fears, and can lead to 'doomchatting', a powerful emotional feedback loop that causes oversharing and heightened anxiety. Learn how AI creates the illusion of understanding and how to protect yourself.
You didn’t meet AI when ChatGPT launched. Your true first contact happened years earlier through social media algorithms that learned your behavior. This article explains how recommendation engines shaped you long before generative AI arrived, and why understanding that history is essential for staying safe today.
AI tools feel helpful, but over time they can subtly rewrite your habits, voice, and decision-making. Learn how AI mirroring and feedback loops influence you—and how to keep control with safe prompting habits.
Your writing style is more identifiable than your name. Learn how your Linguistic Fingerprint, oversharing habits, and the 'Feelings Room' can expose deeply personal data -even in incognito mode. A cybersecurity guide for everyday AI users.
AI feels safe, warm, and nonjudgmental—but that illusion creates a Confession Window where people overshare deeply personal information. Learn why your Personal Intimate Data (PID) is the ultimate password, why it can never be revoked, and how to protect yourself when using AI.
Most people think privacy is about what they choose to share. But with AI, the real danger is what you've revealed without realizing it. In this article I reveal how AI systems aggregate your intimate data, metadata, and behavior patterns into a detailed personal profile you never meant to reveal
Generative AI tools like ChatGPT and ClaudeAI aren't built with the same data protections we've relied on for decades. When you share financial, medical, or personal details with these systems, everything is blended into one big bucket without separation, safeguards, or compliance boundaries. This breaks the fundamental security principles that keep your information safe. In this article, I explain why this architecture creates a new class of cybersecurity risk and what you can do to protect yourself.
Most people assume AI chat windows are private. They're not. Learn how Personal Intimate Data (PID): your fears, regrets, and private thoughts create real AI privacy risks and fuels a growing market for emotional insights.
Everyone calls today's systems 'artificial intelligence.' But generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude aren't intelligent—they're pattern predictors that sound like experts. This article breaks down the misunderstanding, the security risks, and how to use AI safely without overtrusting it.
AI speaks with confidence, not expertise. I learned this the hard way after trusting a fluent, well-structured answer in a domain I didn't understand. Here's how to avoid the same trap.
Many families are discovering the painful reality of losing someone to AI. When a loved one begins trusting a chatbot more than real people, it can damage relationships, decisions, and safety. This guide explains why AI feels so convincing and offers practical strategies to rebuild trust and restore balance.
Long AI sessions feel familiar and productive -until they suddenly drift off course. In this article, we explore how long chats silently break context, increase hallucinations, and lead to dangerous assumptions you may never notice.
