THE AI CON

"The AI Con" explores how artificial intelligence is gradually integrating into our lives through real-world systems, decisions, and incentives rather than dramatic events or sci-fi scenarios. It examines the quiet shifts in human agency, responsibility, and oversight driven by AI adoption, highlighting how these changes often occur without explicit consent and how infrastructure and governance decisions predefine outcomes well in advance. The book aims to clarify why the rapid acceleration of AI feels both useful and unsettling, revealing the underlying mechanisms shaping our evolving relationship with technology.
