Gender Glitch: Decoding Identity in the Age of AI

AI's Gender Glitch Is Culture Hidden in Code.

Why does Alexa always sound like a woman?

When filters erase your flaws, whose idea of beauty are they really coding in?

And why do AI "girlfriends" never say no?

At a time when AI shapes everything from job interviews to dating apps, technologist-turned-author Lakshmi Pillai Gupta reveals how artificial intelligence isn't just transforming technology; it's quietly reshaping our culture, identities, and relationships. Drawing on her 20+ years in digital transformation and AI startups, she uncovers through sharp insights, stories, and research how algorithms are redefining power, beauty, love, and even intimacy.

This is not a manual about machines. It's a book about us:

- How everyday AI, from Siri to Instagram filters, subtly scripts gender and identity

- Why these hidden codes matter for women, men, and everyone in between

- What it means for the future of belonging, relationships, and humanity itself

Blending wit, critique, and "wait, what?!" revelations, Gupta challenges us to see the patterns we scroll past every day, and to ask whether AI is liberating us or locking us into shinier cages.

Perfect for anyone who uses smartphones, social media, or simply lives in the 21st century, The Gender Glitch is your must-read guide if you've ever felt uneasy about how tech is shaping your choices, or wondered what role gender will play in the age of intelligent machines.
