Reading · Not On The Beeb's Substack

As many of you know, I have split the main book of AI and I into three sections, which enables us to get past the barriers to reading:

The price of £20 (it needs to go up in price too)
The scary aspect of reading a 700-page book!

Making the audio version has been a huge effort in stripping it down of the heavy data, dumps, graphs and charts into a simple, easy-to-digest audio format.

Due to the impact of the simplest form, I am publishing a paperback version to go alongside it.

I hope the price point enables us to spread this book further and wider than even before.

If you’ve read AI & I, the only reason to get this book is to give it as a gift.

But if you haven’t read the mother volume... this is your chance to find out what all the fuss is about ;)

AUDIO - THE ARCHITECTURE OF DECEPTION

“...I had not previously read the first edition, so I was delighted to discover that AI and I: Cracking the COVID Code was available as an audiobook. From the very beginning, it captured my attention and kept me engaged until the end.
The book presents complex scientific and medical information in a clear, accessible way, making it valuable for both scientific/medical professionals and general readers. I particularly appreciated how the evidence was explained without losing the depth and detail that readers seeking a strong scientific foundation will value.
I also intend to purchase the print edition, as the visual presentation of the data will provide an even stronger reference for those who want to examine the evidence closely.
I highly recommend this book to anyone working in the pharmaceutical, healthcare, or medical professions. However, be prepared: its insights may challenge your assumptions and could change the way you view the world forever...”

AI & I is an astonishing piece of work.
Entering it is like stumbling into a glitch in the Matrix.
Leonard Cohen wrote, “There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.”
Mark Playne found one of those cracks.
The audiobook works exceptionally well.
The conversational voices make it engaging and effortless to listen to.
The chapters are short which provides the welcome space to pause and reflect.
I found this helpful because each chapter is packed with insights and information.
I have often pondered the immense sense of satisfaction Rudyard Kipling must have experienced on completing ‘IF’ and in my opinion, the author of this book deserves to feel the same way about AI & I.
I believe that this is a profoundly important piece of work.
It challenges many assumptions and provokes thought and discussion.
It is an extraordinary achievement.
I cannot recommend it highly enough.

“...Couldn’t stop listening, even though it was emotionally difficult to hear due to all the myriad ways the global population is lied to. The comprehensive gathering of information, and statistics, on those harmed by the jab itself is phenomenal and I can see why it was never out in the mainstream media. You’ll very likely not believe the official narrative after digesting what you’ll hear in this audio book. I’ve listened to it more than once and glean new information every time. Hats off to Mark Playne for doing the deep dive we so desperately need on this subject. I’m grateful for your diligent digging into this subject....”
