Description
AI for Gen Z is a revealing investigation into how artificial intelligence and digital technologies are quietly rewriting the script of modern life -
...
reshaping how we think, connect, work, and even define who we are.
For Generation Z, AI isn't the future - it's the backdrop of their entire lives. From TikTok's algorithmic influence to romantic relationships with virtual companions, from deepfakes and misinformation to job automation and weaponized drones, this generation is growing up in a world radically altered by machines that learn.
What began as tools of convenience have become tools of control. Platforms designed to connect us now fracture our attention, feed us curated realities, and cultivate emotional dependence. The result is a generation navigating identity, intimacy, and purpose under the shadow of technologies that were never made with their well-being in mind.
This is not just a story about AI. It's a story about how we lost control of the technologies that shape our reality - and what that means for the first generation raised inside the machine.
Blending history, philosophy, and sharp cultural analysis, Ayush Prakash traces how surveillance capitalism, social media psychology, and the unchecked arms race in AI are reshaping Gen Z's inner worlds. He offers not just a diagnosis, but a call to rethink the systems we've built before they rewrite us entirely.
AI for Gen Z is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand how digital technology has rewired a generation - and what it will take to reclaim our attention, autonomy, and humanity.
