The A.I. hangover

What if the biggest question about artificial intelligence isn't what it can do... but what it's quietly changing in us?There was a time when photographs were trusted. Conversations happened without phones on the table. Homework meant thinking, libraries were places of discovery, and boredom often became the birthplace of creativity. Then, almost without noticing, everything changed. Artificial intelligence can now write essays, compose music, answer questions, generate images and imitate voices with astonishing accuracy.
But as machines become more capable, a more important question emerges:What happens to the people using them?The AI Hangover isn't a book about algorithms, coding or the future of technology. It's a book about the future of being human. Through thoughtful observations, humour and deeply relatable reflections, Rowan Mercer explores what we've gained, what we may be losing, and why some of life's most valuable experiences should never be outsourced.
This isn't a book that tells you to fear artificial intelligence. It isn't a book that tells you to embrace it unconditionally either. Instead, it asks a far more important question:As our technology becomes increasingly artificial, how do we remain authentically human?Thought-provoking, hopeful and deeply relevant, The AI Hangover is for anyone who has ever looked at the modern world and quietly wondered...
What happened?
