Forget robots taking your job - this is what happens when a chatbot takes your soul.
AI CEO - Human in a Synthetic World is a sharply observed, brilliantly satirical look at modern leadership, technological overreach, and the uneasy comedy of staying human in a world run by prompts.
Julian Rourke, a CEO who once believed in PowerPoints, policy papers, and the power of a well-timed pause, begins to suspect that something has changed at the top. When his Chairman starts asking impossibly sharp, almost inhuman questions, Julian realises he's not facing another executive - he's facing a ChatGPT-weaponised chairman.
Determined to regain control, he turns to AI for help and finds himself in a battle of wits, ego, and identity with the very system he hoped would save him.
Told through Julian's private diary, the story unravels the theatre of corporate life where strategy becomes simulation, sincerity is rehearsed, and leadership is just another prompt away.
Julian's journey asks the questions many of us are quietly afraid to voice:- What does real work mean in a world run by generative AI?
- Can trust survive when the foundations are built on prompts?
- Is authenticity possible when every sentence has been optimised for impact?
Part satire, part executive memoir, AI CEO is wickedly funny and quietly haunting. It captures the absurdity of modern work, the fragility of judgment, and the strange intimacy that forms when we outsource our thinking.
Think you're in control? Think again, then read on.
