Unprompta™ — Clinically Proven to Reduce Prompt Overload
Finally, a pill for people who can’t stop talking to their computer.
All addictions are a low-level search for God. —Carl Jung

Do you find yourself refreshing your AI chat window before brushing your teeth?
Do you type “just one last question” before bed…and wake up three hours later debating the ethics of self-driving toasters?
You may be experiencing Artificial Intelligence Dependency Syndrome, or A.I.D.S.
But there’s hope.
Introducing Unprompta™ — the first prescription treatment for AI addiction.
With just one daily capsule, Unprompta helps rebalance your dopamine, restore your attention span, and remember what your friends’ voices actually sound like.
Unprompta works by targeting the brain’s reward loop, so you can enjoy the moments between answers — without wondering if GPT-7.3 would have phrased it better.
Ask your doctor if Unprompta is right for you.
Side effects may include: spontaneous small talk, creative thought without autocomplete, increased tolerance for ambiguity, and sudden urges to learn the guitar.
In rare cases, patients have reported writing entire paragraphs without stopping to “just check a fact” or “polish a sentence.”
Do not take Unprompta if you are allergic to quiet, prone to existential dread without a constant information drip, or currently in a committed relationship with your chatbot.
Unprompta™ — because life’s best answers aren’t always generated.
Per my about page, White Noise is a work of experimentation. I view it as a sort of thinking aloud, a stress testing of my nascent ideas. Through it, I hope to sharpen my opinions against the whetstone of other people’s feedback, commentary, and input.
If you want to discuss any of the ideas or musings mentioned above or have any books, papers, or links that you think would be interesting to share on a future edition of White Noise, please reach out to me by replying to this email or following me on Twitter X.
With sincere gratitude,
