Weapons Of Mass Confidence
How AI Will Help Women Win More
Kat Thomas
I’m Kat Thomas, a communications professional, agency founder and lifelong student of how confidence shapes outcomes.
Over the past two decades, I’ve built, scaled and sold businesses, advised brands navigating change and spent my career watching how language and perception influences who gets heard and who gets sidelined. Alongside that professional work, I’ve lived the quieter realities many women will recognise: navigating healthcare systems, negotiating finances, caring for family members and making decisions where the cost of my hesitation became clear only in hindsight.
I’m not an academic or a technologist. I’m someone who cares deeply about how new tools land in real lives. I wrote Weapons of Mass Confidence because I believe AI, used thoughtfully, has the potential to close confidence gaps rather than widen them, but only if women feel able to engage with it on their own terms.
This book is an invitation to do exactly that. To ask better questions. To trust your judgement. And to use the tools available to you without losing your humanity in the process.
Weapons Of Mass Confidence
Weapons of Mass Confidence is a book about what happens when women stop second-guessing themselves and start asking better questions.
Artificial intelligence is already reshaping how we work, spend, negotiate, care for others and make decisions about our lives. But confidence, not technology, remains the biggest dividing line in who benefits most from these changes. This book explores how tools like ChatGPT can act as a private rehearsal space, helping women prepare, clarify push back or go for it in everyday situations where hesitation quietly costs time, money and opportunity.
Blending cultural observation, economic insight and real-world scenarios, Weapons of Mass Confidence looks at work, health, money, relationships, care and public life through one simple lens: what changes when asking becomes normal rather than risky. It is not a technical guide to AI, and it is not about outsourcing judgement to machines. It is about combining smart tools with human instinct, critical thinking and lived experience.
At its heart, this is a book about making shit happen. About women giving themselves permission to ask sharper questions, demand clarity and improve outcomes, one conversation at a time.
