What remains of the human being when machines can do almost everything? This book answers with a journey, not a slogan.

It begins with a map and a method - five lenses for looking at any technology: engineering, philosophy, law, theology, exact sciences - and with the most surprising discovery: the limit of computation is not a philosopher's opinion but a mathematician's theorem, proved by the very fathers of computer science, Turing and Gödel. From there, the journey crosses seven territories: the body and connected medicine (sensors, signals, thresholds, neurotechnologies); the home, where children grow up in front of screens engineered to hold them; the enterprise, where data becomes profiles and work becomes metrics; the city, where algorithms meet power, justice and war; heaven, where the promises of techno-capitalism - never dying, never being alone - are brought before the great traditions; and finally the return: the charter of ten design invariants for those who build systems, from the first commit to the final test.

Written by an engineer and university lecturer in Big Data, Intelligent Devices and Information Systems, the book holds together what usually stays apart: the technical rigor of the AI Act and the GDPR, the incompleteness theorems, the phenomenology of the lived body, the Golem and the Gospel, the presumption of innocence in the age of risk scores. For the technical reader and for readers of every faith - and of none: those who seek technique will find technique; those who seek meaning will find meaning.

Man exists. AI functions. This book shows why that difference cannot be surpassed - and why it is the best news of our time.
