What happens when a human being and artificial intelligence team up to diagnose the most self-destructive habits of our species—AND chart a way out?
Humans Are Running Out of Time

I'm reaching out to introduce a bold new book
In a time of rising political protests, social division, and digital overload, this book unpacks why people act irrationally—and how we can stop. It explores:
• Why protests turn to riots through groupthink and emotional hijacking
• How our "Stone Age" minds fail in a world of algorithms, AI, and global complexity
• 11 cognitive traps that fuel societal collapse and personal failure
• A practical roadmap for building “cognitive courage” and mental clarity
• What artificial intelligence reveals about our limitations—and potential

• First-of-its-kind AI/human collaboration in cognitive psychology, decision science, and philosophical analysis.

• Explains the psychology behind modern unrest—how emotional contagion, social identity, and misinformation escalate peaceful protests into violent chaos.
• Reveals why polarization is no accident, but a predictable outcome of brain wiring in the digital age—and what to do about it.
• Offers a practical roadmap for what Monticelli calls “cognitive courage”—the ability to think independently in a world designed to hijack your brain.
• Features a foreword and curated content by Dan Monticelli, who bridges decades of leadership, hypnosis, and spiritual philosophy.
