I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI to Do (Almost) Everything

Joanna Stern

Joanna Stern turns her household and daily routine into a testing ground for artificial intelligence. Over a year, she tries tools that promise to improve work, health, travel, parenting, and chores, comparing impressive demonstrations with the realities of living alongside imperfect machines. Interviews with technology leaders place these experiments within the wider ambitions of the industry. Mixing practical reporting with humor, Stern examines what automation can genuinely accomplish, where human judgment remains essential, and how ordinary people can evaluate an increasingly persuasive stream of promises about the future.
