Hanshitha Ravichandran

I've loved books for as long as I can remember, and I started writing my own stories when I was six. My first novella, The Sapphire Miracle, follows a girl named Selena on an epic quest through a world full of mythology and old magic.

At TEDxVelammal Global School, I gave a talk called What AI Is Quietly Taking Away From Young Minds – And Why It Matters. When a chatbot hands us an answer instantly, we can lose the habit of wondering, guessing and working things out ourselves. I'm not against AI. I think we should use it as a tool and keep doing our own thinking.
