The AI Effect
A game to uncover how AI can strengthen human connection, and when it might pull us apart.
What happens when AI shows up in our most personal moments?
When it remembers your best friend’s birthday … or writes your apology text after a fight?
The AI Effect is a card game that invites you to wrestle with exactly that. Through a mix of real-life scenarios, provocations, and playful debate, you will debate when AI is supporting healthy human connection and when it erodes it. Whether you're a teacher, teen, technologist, or just curious—this is the game that makes the future feel personal.
Part party game, part ethics lab, and all conversation-starter. Join the 10,000 people across the country who are playing!

Educators, clinicians, technologists, and young leaders are already using The AI Effect in classrooms, teams, and living rooms — often not the way we imagined. Made up your own rules? Swapped in your own scenarios? Tell us your remix.
And if you want more of these conversations, we're having them every week on Substack.
