AI-Powered Anthropomorphized Guides
📝 1. Overview: The Core Idea
I’m developing AI-powered, anthropomorphized guides to assist individuals during pivotal moments in their professional journeys, utilizing a Hero’s Journey narrative framework.
These guides act as mentors, offering support through well-crafted archetypes that feel both relatable and practical.
At its core, this project is a blend of:
- Narrative storytelling (fiction, archetypes, emotional connection)
- Practical guidance (mentorship, clear next steps)
- AI technology (scalable, adaptive guidance systems)
I’m trying to figure out:
- Is this a startup-worthy opportunity, or is it best approached as a slower, reflective creative project?
- Where does this intersect with the current tech landscape?

🌍 Expatriate City Guides (Publishing & Navigation)
- Warsaw Insider: I published and ultimately sold Warsaw Insider, a monthly magazine guiding expatriates through life in early post-communist Warsaw.
- BA Insider: decade later also launched BA Insider in Buenos Aires (see issues on Issuu).
These magazines served as navigational companions for people adjusting to unfamiliar environments.
