A Brief Introduction to this Page's Purpose

Not Another Dime! is dedicated to documenting the assorted, and sometimes wild, details of Mr. Ken Whitman's business dealings within the Role Playing Game (RPG) industry. This place is NOT intended to be a medium of discussion about Mr. Whitman, pro or con, but instead be a "jumping off" point to enable the reader to make their own informed decision about Mr. Whitman's history and business character. (Editor's Note: After years of this documentation, we simply cannot be anything BUT "con" when it comes to Mr. Whitman)

Whenever possible, links to the original source material will be provided, but in many cases that information may have been deleted or secured behind restricted-access (like a private Facebook page) accounts.

Anything posted here is the opinion of the retrospective author and any content shown is to be considered "fair use" and posted for educational purposes only.

Note to authors: Please begin each post with the original date of the event being documented in the format of YYYY.MM.DD (i.e. If the event being recorded happened on March 15th, 2015 and today's date was August 8th, 2018 the beginning of the post's title would be 2015.03.15 and not 2018.08.08) so readers can use the Chronology page to find specific information. Please use appropriate tags when possible for the same reason.

Note to contributors: If you have some valid data to send, screenshots, links to other Ken Whitman stories, etc., please feel free to send a gmail to notanotherdimeblog. We'll look into it and post if appropriate.

2025.12.03 Well This is Awkward

 

2025.12.03 Well This is Awkward
Taking a look at PieoSync and seeing if there was any...substance to it. There is an AI-filled webpage where the vast majority of the links look back to the "Products" page selling....."stuff" for between $4.99 and $17.99. Yes, the "stuff" has names, but no idea what any of it is. No product description to be had for any of the 12 alleged products.

Now the Facebook page is a different animal. There are several AI tools, basically specialized prompts* and one makes us just shake our heads: MEET GARY ... YOUR NEW CROWD FUNDING COACH — DOWNLOAD NOW Just $19.99

Really? Kenny has such a great history with crowd funding that anyone would want to spend $20 ....on a PDF that sets up some AI prompts?

Get Advice on Crowd Funding From Ken Whit Whitman?!

A campaign coach built for creators stepping into the arena. Powered by the PieoSync cognitive engine, Gary breaks crowdfunding into clean beats—what you’re offering, who you’re talking to, how to build trust, and how to convert attention into committed backers. Warm tone, direct guidance, and structure that keeps you moving instead of second-guessing.

Kenny can't even post a graphic for this "product", but we're supposed to think that he has a put-together PDF for AI prompts? For $20? Does he think if he throws a bunch of techno-babble at the internet "wall" that eventually something will stick?


Taking a look at PieoSync and, well wouldn't you know it......."Gary" isn't listed. We're only showing the first product page here....for reasons. The website is just a mess. Most of the links just reload the page, and oddly enough, the top "Product" link on each page....doesn't actually go to one of the two product pages. Basically this is just one big-assed placeholder, really half-assed (our opinion) and not something you'd have on a "live" website (again our opinion).

We find this really rich seeing how Kenny...er Whit, is practically bragging about his expertise working with AI, which is literally the reason for the website to begin with as he wants you to pay him for his "expertise" with this very subject.....(emphasis is ours):

"What I’ve Actually Been Doing With AI

By Ken “Whit” Whitman 

I keep seeing posts about AI — what it might do,


what people are afraid of, what some guru says it’ll replace. Here’s what I’ve actually done with it.

I assembled 120 game cards in two hours. Not designed them — I’d already done that. I fed AI my spreadsheet of stats, symbols, and rules. It placed the text, positioned the artwork, formatted every card to print-ready Photoshop templates. 120 cards. 90% accuracy. Fifteen minutes of machine time plus my quality pass. That’s a week of production work. Done in 60 mins.

I built a 300-page website in four hours. Not a landing page. Not a template. Three hundred individual HTML pages, structured and styled, deployed on WordPress. From zero to live in a single afternoon. 4 hrs start to finish build. 

I researched 300 game designers — properly. Not Wikipedia summaries. Structured profiles following a consistent format, averaging ten minutes per person. The kind of research that would take a team of interns a month. I did it solo, with coffee. Did it in 8 hrs. 

I ran 30,000 simulations of a card game I designed. Monte Carlo analysis. I fed the AI every card and every rule, then let probability do what playtesting can’t — surface the hidden weaknesses, the broken combos, the edge cases no human would catch in a hundred play sessions. Done in 30 mins. Ran it 6 times after it game modification.  Thats a year of test play. 

I built a system that cuts AI hallucination by 95%. Then I patented it. It’s called a governance framework. It doesn’t just prompt the AI better — it restructures how the AI thinks about accuracy, giving it guardrails that make its output trustworthy. That one matters. Cuts mistakes and overconfident ai by 95%.  Took 3 months to develop and now saves yeaes of bad decidions.  

I’ve now created over 50 specialized AI programs. Each one is purpose-built for a specific job — keeping the AI focused, structured, and useful instead of wandering off into generic responses. Think of them as lenses. Same AI, different expertise.  I can bulid a soecual one in 4 hrs for soecific tasks. 

Here’s what I’ve learned. AI doesn’t replace expertise. It amplifies it. Every one of these projects worked because I brought thirty years of game design, filmmaking, and systems thinking to the table. The AI didn’t know what a good card layout looks like. I did. The AI didn’t know which simulation parameters matter. I did. The AI didn’t know how to stop itself from making things up. I built the system that taught it.

The people who will thrive with AI aren’t the ones who know the most about AI. They’re the ones who know the most about their craft — and figure out how to plug AI into it.

So what’s next? Three things.

First — more specialized programs. The fifty I’ve built are just the beginning. The real unlock is creating AI systems that stay locked onto a specific task without drifting. Not chatbots. Workmates. Purpose-built tools that know their job and do it without wandering off script.

Second — production modeling. I make films and I design games. Both are complex, expensive, and full of moving parts. I’m building AI systems that can model a film shoot before it happens — scheduling, budgeting, creative logistics — and do the same for game production. Think of it as a rehearsal you can run a hundred times before you spend a dollar.

Third — the boring stuff that isn’t boring. Organization. Scheduling. Reminders. The infrastructure of a creative life. I’ve spent thirty years keeping a dozen projects spinning at once. Now I’m building the AI layer that helps manage all of it — not by replacing my judgment, but by making sure nothing falls through the cracks while I’m in the creative zone.

The pattern is always the same: take what I already know how to do, and build the system that lets me do more of it, faster, without losing quality.

That’s not the future of AI. That’s the future of work.

— Ken “Whit” Whitman, filmmaker, game designer, and the guy who taught AI to stop lying."

So.....Kenny is an AI expert who can use AI to build "a 300 page website" but he can't build the website where he tries to sell his expertise? That math doesn't math....

Did you know you can actually search the US Patent and Trademark Office? According to the database search Kenneth Whitman does not have a single Patent, well at least not our Ken Whitman. There is a Kenneth Whitman referenced in two Patents having to do with Irradiation, but even then they aren't the patent "inventors" from the 2002 applications. Also did a search for "Whitman" and "governance framework"...still nothing.

Lastly, if you can use AI to create stuff, and logically a Facebook post is also "creating stuff", you'd think that maybe, just maybe you'd use AI to....I don't know.....get stuff spelled correctly? 


*This is an assumption. We're not paying to find out.
