Why it works

The point is not to think like a machine.

The point is to notice where your own reasoning is strong, where it gets rushed, and where an AI answer might sound confident without being right.

Challenges cover logic, estimation, memory, and wording traps

Results explain the reasoning mistake, not just the answer

The daily habit stays short enough to actually repeat
