Replugged
From Mainframes to Mindframes & AI — A Journey Through the Technologies That Shape UsBy Satnam BainsNarrated by Kerry Hutchinson
Length13h 47m
About this audiobook
Replugged is a field guide for staying human as artificial intelligence reshapes work, culture, and everyday life. Arguing that AI's impact will rival the advent of the computer and the internet, it takes a multi-dimensional view. First, it examines how past world-changing technologies rewired society, what they created, and what they broke. Second, it looks forward technologically, showing how AI converges with cloud, data, sensors, robotics, and biology and what real adoption (beyond hype) demands. Third, it analyses the psychological effects of attention drift, information overload, and bias and offers practices that restore agency. Fourth, it places AI within a philosophical and ethical frame, asking not just what we can build but what we should become.
Blending story, systems thinking, and practical playbooks, Replugged introduces the Timeflow lens, focusing on energy, attention, and intention over time, to turn acceleration into action that readers can test this week.
Replugged includes a QR to an AI Companion that extends the conversation, letting readers question, explore, and update insights as the technology (and their lives) evolve.
