Who Are You? — Emerging Identity, Human Imperfection, AI, and Becoming (Daniel in Boston) 1 21 26

In this episode of THE ORIGINAL YOU, the host, Gaytri Kachroo, speaks with Daniel, a 27-year-old consultant living in Boston, who is not theorizing artificial intelligence from a distance—but living alongside it in real time. Daniel grew up riding bikes, building forts, and spending weekly Sundays with extended family — and now works daily with AI, wears Meta glasses, and experiments with how technology can augment (and sometimes threaten) human thinking. What makes this conversation distinct is not Daniel’s fluency with technology, but his attentiveness to where he ends and where AI begins. We explore: – Growing up at the hinge point between analog and digital life – Family as an anchor for identity and connection – AI as assistant, mirror, and sometimes false ally – The pressure toward perfection — and the quiet beauty of human error – Why imperfection may be one of the last irreducibly human signatures This episode is not about rejecting technology. It is about integrating it — without losing authorship, humility, or self-trust. Daniel wears AI, tests it, resists it, corrects it, and openly questions what its presence does to his own sense of humanity. Rather than offering conclusions, he reflects with honesty on process: how identity forms while technology accelerates, and how humans remain authors even as tools grow more powerful. This conversation quietly introduces one of the central themes of the series: Imperfection as a form of human authorship. At one point, Daniel reflects on a small publishing mistake made by the host — a misaligned book spine — that becomes a moment of shared recognition, something unexpectedly meaningful: a trace of humanity that no system could smooth away, demonstrating that error, correction, and reflection are not flaws, but signals of becoming. Daniel responds not with judgment, but with insight, underscoring how meaning often emerges in what is unfinished. THE ORIGINAL YOU is a long-form conversation series exploring how identity forms, fractures, and integrates over time. Each episode begins with a simple question: Who are you—right now? And follows the answer wherever it leads. Website: https://gaytrikachroo.com
