Code-Dependent : Living in the Shadow of AI – Madhumita Murgia

AI is already changing what it means to be human in ways small and large. In Code-Dependent , (shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction), Madhumita Murgia shows how automated systems are reshaping lives worldwide, from technology marking children as future criminals to an app giving diagnosis to a remote tribal community. She explores the impact of these powerful but often exploitative technologies on individuals, communities and our wider society and charts a path of resistance to reclaim our humanity.
