Publisher's Synopsis
What if the world changed overnight... and you weren't invited?
Ramu, an aging electrician from the heart of Chennai, India, lives a simple life - tools in his bag, honesty in his hands, and a daughter he quietly dreams for.
But one morning, with a cup of tea and a scroll through viral headlines, he meets something he's never faced before: Artificial Intelligence.
It speaks in foreign words. Moves faster than he can. And worse, it threatens everything he's ever known - his job, his role as a father, and his place in a world that's moving on without him.
But Ramu doesn't run.
He learns. He stumbles. He questions.
And slowly, he begins to realize something profound:
AI isn't the enemy. The fear is.
In a time flooded with hype, noise, and digital panic, The AI and a Common Man tells a quiet, powerful story - one of dignity, relevance, and the extraordinary courage of ordinary people.
It's not just a book about technology.
It's a book about belonging. About fatherhood. About being human in a machine age.
