I have co-authored (with AI), edited, and published several books and Facebook pages under the pen name Garrick Austin, including two acclaimed books: AI for Beginners: Unlocking the Future with Artificial Intelligence and AI for Self-Improvement: Enhancing Your Life with Artificial Intelligence. While I initially followed legal and business advice to use a pen name, I’ve since found that authenticity is what truly matters. My Facebook pages focus on creating and customizing karaoke for fellow enthusiasts. Previously, I wrote Endearing Paws: The Ultimate Toy Poodle Owner’s Manual and, more recently, Karaoke Unleashed: Mastering the Art and Science of Sing-Along Entertainment—all with the aid of AI. These projects reflect my ability to blend technology with personal passions, making complex topics accessible and engaging. Since childhood, music has been a constant in my life. After discovering karaoke (thanks, Jeff!), I quickly became immersed in both the art and the science behind it. By early 2020, I had acquired my own karaoke player and creation software. Today, I leverage AI to refine the process of making karaoke tracks, while sharing insights about the transformative power of music—especially through karaoke. My perspective is shaped by my background. Military training in analog and digital electronics laid the foundation for a successful career in electronics and computer systems engineering. An early retirement allowed me to pursue my greatest passions—music, photography, neurology, artificial intelligence, Bible education, and, most recently, karaoke. Driven by curiosity about the human mind, I pursued and earned two Master Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) Practitioner certifications (thanks, Jim!). I have used this training as a registered Coach and Counselor, helping others benefit from NLP processes for personal change and growth. More recently, I’ve shared Bible-based insights using NLP-inspired storytelling on Facebook, guiding people toward meaningful change. Throughout my most recent journey, I have remained dedicated to understanding and harnessing AI to empower others. My AI work spans diverse fields, from personalized learning and mental well-being to creative outlets like photography, music, and writing. For example, in my recent book, Echoes of the Heart: Music, Emotion, and the Human Experience, I combine technical knowledge with my passion for music to explore how songs shape our emotions, relationships, and self-understanding. As a student of AI, music, and karaoke, I strive to stay ahead of technological advancements, believing that asking the right questions and engaging thoughtfully with innovation unlocks more of our potential. In my just published photobook, "Whispering Light: My Journeys Through Yosemite" readers can journey through the visual storytelling of Half Dome’s many moods, the hidden pathways of the valley floor, and the fleeting moments where sunlight and waterfalls collide to create nature’s own prismatic masterpiece. And please explore the unseen—the small flowers clinging to rock faces, the quiet creatures tucked away in the landscape, and even the unexpected—like a mysterious little figure resting on a sunlit boulder beneath a rainbow. Ultimately, my dedication to learning, creativity, and sharing knowledge is at the heart of everything I do. My hope is that my work serves as a trusted guide for those eager to explore the intersections of technology, creativity, and personal growth. Thank you,
