Is it your sunset or sunrise?
If you stare off to the distance - it can be either. It's your choice. There's nothing "artificial" about your intelligence.
Time To Clear The Digital Noise
Tired of hearing about "artificially intelligent" machines?
Same here. We're going to step away from that. Craft Weapon is about recognizing straight-up human excellence at the everyday level. It is a push back. It's like listening to the sea. It's there - listen to it! It is real, not "virtual." It is not an "influencer." It is our natural world. The world that surrounds us. It is about moving toward the experience, knowledge, creativity and caring of people. This is how decision-making should be based - by humans for the benefit of humans. Craft Weapon is about moving away from algorithmic dictates toward the promise of being alive, aware and always learning about the actual world. Chapter and verse. No meta verse required. From zero to 100-plus, age is not material. The arc of life is the magic. The mind is a gold mine. It must not be wasted.
We are new. We are building to deliver shared experience. Knowledge. Curiosity. Wonder.
It is human nature to allow time to slip by. That's what time does. It comes at us, passes and is gone. What do we get from each moment? That's where we live, learn and experience. If you have lived a life that has brought you a command of your craft - whatever it may be - you are a weapon. A Craft Weapon.
"Jack Harrington is a humanistic, intelligent contrarian. And he still gives a damn."
One tech CEO who has worked with Harrington for 25 years summed up Jack: "He gets the truth of the entire tech buzz world. His whole key to this understanding is humanistic. The truth about the so-called "tech revolution" is that there really hasn't been anything revolutionary in 40 years. We are rehashing the same thoughts and turning them into "the next big thing." Meanwhile, the real revolution is human evolution. It always has been. The computers and software are just tools. Harrington gets it." Peter Giannacopolous, CEO Myrmidon Networks
Jack Harrington is a multiple Emmy award-winning journalist, with additional award-winning experience in newspaper and radio reporting.

So much more to come. Until then, keep it simple and embrace every moment.
Craft Weapon the book is coming soon. Can't wait? Thought so. Until then, keep tabs here. Just beginning the saga. We'll keep you posted. Cheers!
Craft Weapon as a way to think
Along for the ride? Or forging your own path? It's never too late to change. We have some ideas and they are not generated by a chat GPT algo. Want to electrify your people? Unplug them and let them think.
Been there, done that and so much more left to do.
Remember paper maps? Find one of a place you've never been. Hold it. Unfold it. Imagine yourself there, wherever it is. Welcome to analog - AKA, the real world. It's still out there.
Don't set sail in stormy seas. Patience brings rewards
Don't hit the app. Look at the water. Feel the wind. Turn your face into it. Experience actual surround sound. If you get stuck in the harbor, you have that much more time to meet new people and make new friends. The only thing you may be missing is a shipwreck!
