Greater than ten years in the past, we broke information with my earlier Kickstarter. Now I’m again with a collection of AI-powered playing cards.
For the final 5 months, I’ve been in full dash mode, and that is what I’ve been constructing.
We launched the Mentor Deck in beta two weeks in the past, and I used to be thrilled and delighted to see how deeply it resonated with folks. And now the Mentor Deck is up to date, and joined by two different decks which can be enjoyable, inspiring and shocking. I believe they’ll make nice presents, however they’re additionally price preserving a set for your self as effectively.
It takes a very long time to print a deck of playing cards, and we’re timing this launch so we are able to get the decks to everybody in time for the winter holidays–and we wish to be sure to print sufficient. Early birds save a bundle, and people who have been within the beta group can get a particular deal.
How the decks work:
Probably the most well-known AI platform is chatGPT, however my every day favourite is Claude, from Anthropic. Anthropic lately launched a platform they name artifacts. An artifact is a chic, complicated, pre-written immediate that may be shared with others. I ended up constructing 150 of them…
Every of the playing cards within the three decks has a QR code on it. Scan that and it launches an artifact that you would be able to work together with. I used the tactile, analog energy of enjoying playing cards to create juxtapositions and combos that convey delight to our very human interactions with the AI.
Whereas it was complicated to construct, it’s very easy to make use of. And the mixture of playing cards and AI is pure magic.
The Infinite Journey Deck enables you to select your personal textual content journey. There are fifty worlds to discover–Alice in Wonderland, Cyberpunk, Noir PIs and even Al Capone.
The Trendy Divination Deck unlocks fifty sorts of historic and trendy soothsaying. Our future is just not pre-written, it’s as much as us. This neo-tarot deck results in deep conversations and insights about taking duty and taking motion in making a future we’d wish to be a part of.
And the Mentor Deck is a sequence of centered prompts that create a training dialog. Every coach has ‘learn’ what Claude is aware of about an concept or creator after which talks you thru your points, your challenges and your potential. You’re not speaking to the one that coined the concepts, however to a coach who understands them.
All three decks are designed to amplify our humanity. As a substitute of pushing ourselves to be nothing however a extra productive cog, these kinds of open-ended conversations can push us to cease ready for directions and begin taking duty as an alternative.
You’ll be able to strive a pattern Mentor dialog right here. As well as, there are three samples from the Infinite deck on the Kickstarter web page (on the backside).
