For Own and Common Good : Learn How Body and Brain Interact

by Shiv Talwar

This book captures an engaging and thought-provoking dialogue between Artificial Intelligence, represented by Microsoft Copilot, and myself, exploring the prevailing state of the human condition and the steps necessary for its improvement. Together, we identified a fundamental the lack of intentionality driven by insufficient conscious focus and purpose-oriented actions. Human life tends to rely heavily on unconscious, automated behaviors, which, while essential, are insufficient on their own.
To address this, the book argues that striking a harmonious balance between automation and intentionality is paramount. Both are indispensable—automation streamlines our lives, while intentionality infuses them with meaning and direction. Without this equilibrium, our actions fail to serve either individual or collective well-being.
