Still human: How we adapt and evolve alongside AI (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789375006770)

In a world rapidly outsourcing its cognitive load to artificial intelligence, Still Human explores the quiet, cumulative shift in what we are willing to do ourselves and what we are eager to hand over to machines. Written not from the detached perspective of a technologist, but through the honest, lived experience of an advertising professional who intimately understands the mechanics of human attention, the book investigates the hidden costs of our digital conveniences. From a grandmother's physical strength forged by decades of drawing water, to the sudden loss of a mother's fifty memorised phone numbers, Still Human grounds the global AI anxiety in a distinctly Indian context-navigating the unique leapfrogs, languages, and cultural trust networks of the subcontinent. More than a critique of algorithmic feeds and AI-generated workflows, the book is an urgent, deeply personal invitation to reclaim unstructured thought, tolerate boredom, and consciously choose which uniquely human capacities we must protect before they silently atrophy.
