Use AI on your own terms.
Big Tech is running an experiment on all of us. Distilled AI is on your side. We show you how to use AI without giving up your brain, your job, or your say in how it shapes your life.
How we help you stay in control
Lots of us use AI and feel uneasy about it.
Keep your brain in charge
Hand AI all your thinking and you can lose the skills that make you hard to replace. We show where AI helps, where it fails, and how to keep making the calls.
Tell what's real
Fake voices and videos are now cheap to make, but simple habits still help. A family passcode can expose a scam call that uses a cloned voice.
Keep up without the hype
AI moves fast, and launch-day hype rarely says what changes for you. We explain the news in plain words and show what it means for your job, your family, and your feed.
Ask who benefits
The biggest tech companies and the billionaires who lead them don't always want what you want. We ask who each product or policy serves and say so when the answer isn't you. We stay fair to the people who work at those companies.
Take the risks seriously, without the doom
Many researchers worry that AI could grow more capable faster than we learn to keep it safe. Experts disagree on how likely that is. We explain where they agree, where they split, and what nobody knows yet.
How we check our work
Every factual claim in our videos carries a source. When we get something wrong, we fix it in public.
Join the Control Group
Tech companies are rolling AI out to billions of people before anyone knows what it does to work, trust, kids, or our own thinking. That rollout is the experiment.
In science, the control group is the baseline that keeps an experiment honest. In this one, that's you. You watch closely, think for yourself, and take back control of how AI fits into your life.
