AI Future Series · Book 4 — Machines That Remember Us

What happens when the record outlives the person?

Digital systems do more than store the past. They use it to shape identity, opportunity and the decisions made about us. A forgotten account, an outdated inference or a childhood record can return years later without the context that once made it understandable.

Machines That Remember Us is a practical, human-centred guide to identity in an age of permanent digital memory. Jossy Ibe explains how records travel, how stored data becomes prediction and how individuals, families and organisations can preserve the right to context, correction and renewal.

Inside, you will learn how to:

• identify the records most likely to affect your life;
• understand when old data becomes a present-day prediction;
• protect children born into permanent digital histories;
• challenge inaccurate or decontextualised records;
• build an evidence folder and Digital Identity Recovery Plan;
• make responsible decisions about retention, deletion and institutional memory.
