FREE: Giveaway for "Five Everyday AI & Data Risks" ebook, and more (limited time offer)
I'm sharing a 33-page sample of my upcoming AI book in a free non-fiction book giveaway running from July 25-Aug. 25, 2025. It's a thank-you gift to current subscribers and a welcome gift to new ones!
I have a gift for y’all, yinz, you folks, …! Starting TODAY, July 25, a 33-page sample from my upcoming book, “Everyday Ethical AI: A Guide For Families & Small Businesses”, is available FREE through a non-fiction book giveaway. My sample ebook is titled “Five Key AI & Data Risks Affecting Our Wetware & Lives” “Five Everyday AI & Data Risks” (I retitled the book on release day, based on feedback I received).

The BookFunnel giveaway is designed to share the ebook as a welcome gift to new subscribers. Current subscribers can get this book for free too as a thank-you gift! Just use the same email address that you’re already subscribed with, and I’ll make sure you don’t get subscribed twice. (Or if you want to use a different address for this book giveaway, just DM or email me so I know not to add it.)
The book is available in both EPUB and PDF formats and can be read directly on the BookFunnel site. I am giving away an unlimited number of free copies, but only for a limited time: this offer expires on August 25 and will not be renewed.

BONUS: Not only can you get my ebook for free, through this link, you can get free books from 50+ other authors who have joined the giveaway.

Check the freebie list for other ebooks that might interest you! (Other authors may limit how many free copies they will give away, so don’t wait to check out what’s available.)
I’m making this free offer because these book chapters cover five key AI and data risks that everyone should know about — even people who don’t care about AI ethics or who don’t seek out AI tools to use. Please help other readers find my free ebook, and more, by sharing this post widely 😊 Thank you!
