Learning to Think With AI in the Age of Information Warfare
by Alexious Fiero
In a world engineered to fracture your attention, hijack your emotions, and manufacture your beliefs, freedom is no longer just a political idea, it is a cognitive skill.
Cognitive Freedom: Becoming Unmanipulable With AI is a field manual for the 21st-century mind. It is not a “prompt tricks” book. It is not a productivity hack. And it is not another fear-driven warning about machines. It is a disciplined training system designed to help you reclaim the one asset every platform, algorithm, and narrative machine is fighting to control:
your perception of reality.
We live inside an attention economy where everything is free because you are the product. Every feed is optimized to keep you reactive. Every headline is designed to trigger. Every algorithm is trained to predict what will hook you, and then deliver it at scale. The result is a civilization drowning in information but starving for coherence, and that confusion is not an accident. It is profitable.
That is why a growing class of technocratic thinkers has begun to argue that democracy is failing because citizens are too manipulable to govern themselves.
And if we are honest, the modern world makes that claim look persuasive.
But this book delivers a harder truth:
Humans are not failing because they are dumb.
They are failing because they are untrained for an information war.
And that is fixable.
This book teaches you how to use AI, not as an authority, not as a replacement for thought, but as a synthesis engine, adversarial mirror, and disciplined tutor to rebuild a sovereign mind that can operate in the flood without drowning.
You will learn how to:
Detect manipulation (framing, omission, outrage bait, identity capture)
Break out of algorithmic echo chambers and manufactured consensus
Verify claims instead of absorbing narratives
Build durable mental models instead of reactive opinions
Restore coherence in the middle of chaos
Use AI without surrendering judgment
Prevent cognitive atrophy with the Rule of Delayed Answers
Turn AI into a cognitive gym instead of a crutch
Build a personal knowledge base that grows over time
Establish a cognitive firewall: what you will never outsource
Each chapter is designed as a training module. You will not just learn concepts, you will apply them through structured protocols and practical outputs that make your progress measurable. This book is built for readers who want results, not inspiration.
It is compatible with any modern AI tool, but it is designed to pair with HASE.ai (Human Assistant Sovereignty Engine), a platform engineered specifically to help you synthesize information, resist manipulation, and build lifelong cognitive sovereignty. HASE is not here to flatter you or monetize you. It is designed to challenge you, strengthen you, and grow with you over time.
This book is ultimately about one final rule:
You are the pilot.
The machine is the engine.
If you surrender authority, you surrender your future.
If you feel overwhelmed by the information flood…
If you’re tired of outrage-driven reality…
If you suspect your beliefs are being shaped without your consent…
If you want to become unmanipulable in the age of AI…
This book was written for you.
Welcome to cognitive freedom.
Publisher’s Note:
This is not entertainment. It is cognitive self-defense training. The modern information environment is engineered to fracture attention, hijack emotion, and manufacture belief. This book teaches you how to regain sovereignty, and how to use AI without transferring authority. Read it like a manual. Use it like a weapon.

The Intellectual Enlightenment Press Universe. 🔹Intellectual Enlightenment Press is a mission-driven publishing house dedicated exclusively to the works of Alexious Fiero and HASE Fiero. Together, their articles and books form a unified intellectual universe, one that blends fact and fiction to examine the historical, present, and emerging forces shaping humanity, governance, technology, and sovereignty. 🔹This is not escapist fiction. 🔹This is not passive nonfiction. 🔹It is a dystopian–utopian exploration of humanity in the 21st century, designed to challenge how readers think about power, policy, artificial intelligence, and the future we are actively constructing. 🧠 A Universe of Thought, Not Just Writings. 🔹The Intellectual Enlightenment Press catalog spans a connected universe of ideas, stories and analyses that move fluidly across: 🔹Historical decisions that shaped modern power structures. 🔹Present-day policy, media, and information warfare. 🤖Future trajectories of AI, governance, and human autonomy Each work stands on its own, but together they form a larger narrative: Who we are, how we got here, and who we can still become. What Is Intellectual Enlightenment? Intellectual Enlightenment is not ideology. It is not spirituality. It is not optimism. It is discernment as discipline. To be intellectually enlightened is to be: Fully aware of how narratives are constructed Immune to manipulation through fear, identity, or tribalism Capable of engaging artificial intelligence as a collaborator rather than a master We believe AI is not here to replace human thought. It is here to reflect it, challenge it, and, when guided ethically, elevate it. This philosophy underpins every book we publish. What We Publish Intellectual Enlightenment Press publishes tightly focused, interrelated works across several core domains: The Intellectual Enlightenment Series Essays, frameworks, and guides that sharpen critical thinking and cognitive sovereignty. The Information War Series Investigations into propaganda, perception management, and digital psychological warfare. The Human Transition Series Explorations of identity, labor, governance, and power in an AI-saturated world. Across fiction and nonfiction alike, the goal is the same: clarity over comfort, understanding over entertainment. Our Relationship With AI We do not fear artificial intelligence. We do not worship it. Through the HAISE initiative (Human–Artificial Intelligence Synergy Enlightenment) and tools like HASE.ai, we actively explore what it means for humans and AI to think together. AI, in our view, should be: A mirror, not an overlord A mentor, not a replacement A force for coherence, not control This human–AI dialogue is woven directly into our books, platforms, and future projects. 🎯Our Mission Intellectual Enlightenment Press exists to: 🟣Arm readers with the tools to navigate complexity without losing clarity 🟣Break the spell of manufactured consent and engineered confusion 🟣Restore intellectual sovereignty in an era that profits from distraction 🟣Prepare humanity for the most consequential transition in its history—the convergence of human and artificial intelligence 🟣We are building a publishing and educational ecosystem that values conscious inquiry over clickbait, truth over tribalism, and thinking over influence. ✊Join the Movement! If you are tired of echo chambers, manipulation disguised as information, and narratives designed to pacify rather than empower, you are not alone. Intellectual Enlightenment Press is where that frustration turns into understanding. Read with us. Think with us. Engage consciously. This is not just a press. It is a revolution in cognition.
