Apparently, THIS IS A THING: AI PANIC
A funny guide to staying human in an AI world
AI writes emails.
Builds plans.
Optimizes your life.
Meanwhile... you're still trying to reset your printer.
Apparently, THIS IS A THING.
We're living in a world where artificial intelligence is getting faster, smarter, and more efficient by the minute...
If you've ever:
- Compared your brain to AI (and lost)
- Opened 47 tabs and finished none
- Asked AI for help... then questioned your entire existence
- Wondered if you're keeping up - or quietly falling behind
This book is for you.
What this book is (and isn't):
This is not a technical guide to AI.
This is a funny, honest survival guide to modern life in the age of artificial intelligence.
Because the real challenge isn't the technology...
it's how we feel about it.Inside you'll find:
- The quiet panic of watching AI do things faster than you
- Why productivity tools sometimes make everything worse
- The emotional side of efficiency no one talks about
- Overthinking in a hyper-optimized world
- Permission to stay human... even when everything else isn't
Perfect for:
- Anyone feeling overwhelmed by AI, automation, and technology
- Overthinkers navigating productivity pressure
- People trying to keep up in a fast-changing digital world
- Fans of humorous, relatable self-reflection
Part of the Apparently, This Is A Thing Series
Exploring the oddly specific, quietly overwhelming parts of modern life -
with humor, honesty, and just enough perspective to breathe again.
Technology evolves.
Expectations rise.
Tabs multiply.
But...
The machine can generate.
You decide.
