FAQ
What problem will this solve for me?
Cognitive decline and dependency caused by excessive AI use. Specifically: deteriorating attention span (unable to focus for more than 15-20 minutes), diminished creative capacity (can't generate original ideas without AI), slower decision-making (paralysis without AI validation), and growing anxiety when working without AI assistanc
How do I know for sure my brain is being affected by AI use?
If you can't complete deep work without checking your phone or AI tools every few minutes. Or you feel blank when asked to generate ideas in meetings without preparation. Perhaps you second-guess decisions not validated by AI. You feel increasingly anxious when AI isn't available. Your work is becoming generic and indistinguishable from AI-produced content. You notice your reading comprehension declining. You're losing the mental stamina that built your career. You will know if you have an issue or not.
Are you sure this is really a problem?
Two dangerous misconceptions prevail:
  1. Many believe that using AI tools automatically makes them smarter. This is fundamentally untrue. Cognition encompasses many distinct abilities: sustained attention, creative synthesis, critical evaluation, metacognition, and more. Research increasingly shows that outsourcing these functions to AI without strategic boundaries leads to atrophy in these cognitive domains – similar to how calculator dependency weakens mental math abilities. The convenience of AI masks this decline until people find themselves struggling when the technology isn't available.
  1. Most people believe cognitive decline from AI dependency is an inevitable trade-off for increased productivity. This too is false. With the right approach, you can maintain and even enhance your cognitive abilities while still leveraging AI's full benefits – creating a competitive advantage over those who simply surrender their thinking to technology.
What will I get for my money?
Delivered over 4 weeks, the Cognitive Sovereignty Program includes a comprehensive cognitive assessment, personalized independence plan, access to 40 cognitive reinforcement exercises, a 90-day quick start implementation guide, weekly office hours, and direct support. Clients typically experience measurable improvements in focus duration, creative output, decision confidence, and strategic AI usage within 90 days of consistent practice.
What unique credentials, experience or results validate your expertise?
My expertise is validated by both academic credentials and real-world application. I've completed the Machine Learning Specialization from Stanford University, giving me technical insight into AI's underlying mechanisms. With over 25 years of experience in IT and marketing, including program development for a Fortune 500 company, I've witnessed the evolution of technology's impact on human cognition from multiple perspectives – as a developer, creative thinker, marketer, and copywriter.
I'm the author of the forthcoming book "Cognitive Sovereignty: Defending Human Intelligence in the Age of AI" which synthesizes my research in this emerging field.
Our methodology is grounded in neuroscience and informed by extensive interviews with professors of neuroscience, human cognition specialists, and professionals across diverse industries experiencing AI's cognitive impacts firsthand.
Is this workshop right for me if I'm not tech-savvy?
Absolutely! The workshop is designed for participants of all technical backgrounds. We focus on cognitive principles and practical techniques that apply regardless of your comfort level with technology.
How much time commitment is required?
The workshop includes a 2-hour live session each week, plus approximately 1-2 hours of weekly practice exercises and reading. This is typically broken up into just 15 minutes a day. Many participants report that the techniques actually help them save time by improving focus and reducing distraction.
I already have productivity apps and books. What makes this unique?
Cognitive Sovereignty is to our knowledge, the first and only guided workshop series on dealing with cognitive decline due to overuse of AI.
While there are general focus apps (like Forest), meditation programs (Headspace), and productivity coaches, there are no direct competitors specifically addressing AI-induced cognitive decline. We differ by: 1) Targeting the specific cognitive impacts of AI rather than general productivity, 2) Providing a structured system rather than generic advice, 3) Approaching the problem from both neuroscience and historical perspectives, creating a unique and intuitive framework.
Will this workshop help with AI addiction?
Yes! We address the psychological hooks that platforms use and provide specific strategies to break addictive usage patterns while maintaining the benefits of connectivity.
Are the sessions recorded if I miss one?
Yes, all sessions are recorded and available for 90 days after the workshop concludes. However, we strongly encourage live attendance for the interactive exercises and community building aspects.
How much is it? Is there a split-pay?
For a short time, the Cognitive Sovereignty Workshop series is only $397. Soon the price will rise to $3000. This is your last chance to get it for more than 85% off. And yes, split-pays are available for your convenience.
Can I promote this to my audience?
Yes! For more info, please email steve AT conversionpioneers.com
