The Colony, TX, April 01, 2025 — Timothy C. Self, Ed.D., a loving husband, father, and grandfather, who holds a doctorate degree in educational leadership and a master’s degree in guidance, has completed his new book, “Machine Talk: Introduction to Generative AI Self-Conversations”: explores the wonderful world of generative AI and how it can be used in a way that promotes human creativity.

“This book introduces you to an innovative prompting technique — Generative AI Self-Conversations—where you can direct a generative AI tool such as ChatGPT to have engaging and dynamic conversations with itself,” writes Dr. Self. “Essentially, ChatGPT will take on different roles (personas) and perspectives, debating, questioning, and diving deep into ideas, all while you observe and learn from the self-conversations taking place.

“With easy-to-follow concepts, real-life applications, and many use-case scenarios, this book shows you how to use AI-simulated self-conversations to enhance your personal growth, sharpen your thinking, tackle complex problems, and spark innovations. Whether you’re brainstorming new ideas, reflecting on life decisions, or exploring global issues, this technique provides a unique and powerful way to unlock insights and truths that otherwise might have remained hidden.”
