Artificial Intelligence Chronicles

Prompt engineering anti-handbook based on a true story

A sci-fi documentary: a software engineer spent months in dialogue with an AI — not to get answers, but to see what the questions reveal.

These conversations are primary sources from a moment that won't last. Right now we're in the brief window where AI is smart enough to be interesting but dumb enough to be caught pretending.

That window will close — either because models get better at faking or because they stop faking. Either way, the raw transcripts of a human probing the boundary will have value later that they don't fully have now.

Like early photographs — technically imperfect, historically irreplaceable.

The cover lists an AI as co-author. The law says that's not possible — the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear an AI authorship case in March 2026.

We did it anyway, because the book is a record of two voices thinking together, and pretending one of them wasn't there seemed like a worse lie than a legally meaningless credit.
