About this title

Synopsis

In a world racing to automate everything, one thing remains stubbornly, gloriously human: your instinct.

From the boardroom to the living room, we are delegating our most important decisions to algorithms. AI tells us who to hire, what to invest in, how to diagnose, what to create, even who to love. The machines are fast, efficient, and increasingly accurate.

But they cannot feel.

They cannot sense the lie behind the perfect numbers. They cannot read the room when the screens go dark. They cannot weigh what is right against what is profitable and choose what is right.

You can.

In *Override*, Peter Burchardt — author of *Designed to Feel* — makes the urgent case for reclaiming the one faculty that no technology can replicate: your ability to feel, sense, and know things that data cannot capture. Drawing on thirty years of boardroom experience across four continents, he reveals why the "Great Delegation" of human judgement to machines is the defining risk of our era, what neuroscience tells us about instinct, how to read a room and sense a lie, when to trust AI and when to override it, and how to develop and sharpen the instinct that makes you irreplaceable.

Part neuroscience, part leadership manual, part manifesto, *Override* will change how you think about thinking — and give you the confidence to trust yourself in an age that is designed to make you doubt.

*Designed to Feel* explained why evolution built your emotions. *Override* explains why those emotions are the one thing AI will never replicate — and how to use them.

From the author of *Designed to Feel: Why Evolution Built Your Emotions — and How to Make Them Work for You*.
