When artificial intelligence can write essays, stories, and even speeches in seconds, what happens to our own voices? Namrata shares her journey as a lifelong writer who almost gave up her pen when AI seemed “better” than her. Through honesty and urgency, she explores the danger of outsourcing creativity—how convenience can quietly replace courage, and how remixed outputs can never replace authentic human spark. With powerful stories of frustration, growth, and breakthrough, Namrata makes a compelling case for reclaiming the messy, imperfect process of creation. Because true innovation doesn’t come from algorithms — it comes from us. Namrata Nanduru is a student passionate about storytelling and its power to shape perspectives. She sees creativity as a way to explore important questions and bring people together, and always emphasises authenticity, hard work, and meaning in everything she does.
