Sasha Sviridova / The Persistent / Alexa, How Do I Stop This Meltdown?

Sasha Sviridova was commissioned by The Persistent to illustrate the article “Alexa, How Do I Stop This Meltdown?” The piece explores AI’s role in optimizing daily tasks and freeing up time for more meaningful activities. However, it also highlights the irony of technology, as it is designed to simplify life but often ends up making things more complicated. With a humorous tone, the article reflects on our reliance on digital tools that don’t always work as expected.
