On the surface, a British poet, an UberEats courier in Pittsburgh, an Indian doctor, and a Chinese activist in exile have nothing in common. But they are in fact linked by a profound common experience - unexpected encounters with artificial intelligence. "Code Dependent" explores the impact of a set of powerful, flawed, and often-exploitative technologies on individuals, communities, and our wider society. Journalist Madhumita Murgia exposes how AI can strip away our collective and individual sense of agency, and shatter our illusion of free will - and what could happen if we fail to reclaim our humanity.
