A few weeks ago we were pleasantly surprised to hear how many of our listeners are authors who have written their own books. Kara Fox is one of them and has just finished her book Human Still Wins. Kara wrote the book after some concerns about the impact of AI in her line of work. She joined us with her daughter Neave to chat about it.

“The machine is faster and clearner, and it never has a bad night or asks for a day off. What it can’t do is take responsibility for what happens next.”

If you’d like to buy the book you can place your orders on Kara’s website. Kara has given everyone a special for today (31 August 2026) to get a R50 discount and free shipping if you use the promo code “SMILE”.
