We can’t recommend the book and workshops enough. We want to extend the work to a platform using AI that helps humans make the most out of the explosion of generative ai. The artistsway.ai respects Cameron’s copyrights and occasions quotes for clarification of the original work. Artistsway.ai is an original work of writing and expansion by John McElhenney, the creator of the platform. jan 2026 jmc *** ## Belgian Whistles [![Read more about the article Belgian Whistles](/files/3629d4301c3fb61b155183ef3b8d3b5ee666420e)](https://mcelhenney.net/belgian-whistles/) * Post author: [John McElhenney](https://mcelhenney.net/author/john-mcelhenney/) * Post published: January 19, 2026 * Post category: [the artist's way with john oakley mcelhenney](https://mcelhenney.net/category/the-artists-way-ai/) let's unlock a few features of your human life AI IS NOT FOR GOOD. return to index | this is a chapter of a novel\*\* in progress: \*this is part of… [Continue ReadingBelgian Whistles](https://mcelhenney.net/belgian-whistles/) *** ## Learning To Collaborate with AI [![Read more about the article Learning To Collaborate with AI](/files/20fd211af18db82edb1d60da19abe3ed1dc9741e)](https://mcelhenney.net/learning-to-collaborate/) * Post author: [John McElhenney](https://mcelhenney.net/author/john-mcelhenney/) * Post published: January 19, 2026 * Post category: [the artist's way with john oakley mcelhenney](https://mcelhenney.net/category/the-artists-way-ai/) AI is a collaborator not a creator.

GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://artists-way-ai-with-john-oakley.gitbook.io/artists-way-by-john-oakley-mcelhenney-docs/the-artists-way-with-john-oakley-mcelhenney-archives.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
