Code, Cogito And You

Back Cover

We stand today on the quiet edge of a not-so-quiet revolution, orchestrated by machines that have managed to slip unnoticed from “helpful gadgets” to “decision-makers.” This book dives headfirst into the unsettling realization that our identities, desires, and very sense of self might be quietly handed off to algorithms that subtly constrain our choices, gently rewrite our biographies, and cleverly convince us this was our idea all along. It explores the fragile boundaries between human autonomy and digital authority, examining how intelligent systems shape personal identity, influence our preferences, and redefine the meaning of genuine choice. It’s about what happens when humans accidentally let algorithms redefine freedom, identity, and the very art of being human—without quite meaning to. Read carefully, laugh nervously, and keep an eye on your toaster. It may already be planning your weekend.
