The AI vs. Humanity

Have you ever wondered why you feel powerless when you do not get a job, a loan, a role, or something else you applied for, only to be told that the algorithm did not select you?
These decisions are often presented as unbiased and neutral, as if the system itself is responsible. But the real question is who designed these systems, who trained them, and what hidden or unquestioned categories and profiles they use to decide who is accepted and who is rejected.
This is the reality examined in The AI vs. Humanity, the latest book by Albert Hadi. The book is not a warning about a distant future or a speculative take on emerging technology. It is a clear-eyed analysis of a world that already exists, where automated systems quietly shape opportunity, visibility, and human worth. Artificial intelligence now operates at the center of daily life, screening résumés, ranking workers, assessing risk, and controlling access to employment, credit, education, housing, healthcare, and information.
What makes this shift so consequential is not speed or efficiency, but the erosion of accountability. Decisions that once required explanation now arrive as outcomes. Rejection becomes procedural, responsibility becomes unclear, and appeal becomes nearly impossible. Hadi shows how these systems, often described as objective, embed human values, priorities, and exclusions while masking them behind technical language and statistical authority.
The book also extends this analysis into moments of crisis. In healthcare and security environments, algorithmic tools increasingly influence who is treated first, who waits, and who is deprioritized. In these contexts, judgment is no longer exercised in the moment but executed through profiles built long before the crisis occurs.
The AI vs. Humanity does not argue against technology itself. It asks a more urgent question: what happens to dignity, consent, and responsibility when authority becomes automated and invisible, and whether society is prepared to confront the power it has already handed over.
