Femaleneet
At twenty-seven, Hellen is living in Munich, unemployed, financially dependent on her mother, and trying to understand what kind of future is still possible for her.
But her story did not begin with becoming a NEET.
She was born in Georgia, survived the 2008 war in Gori, moved to Germany as a child, learned a new language, grew up as a foreigner, and later faced paranoid schizophrenia, depression, psychiatric treatment, and years of trying to rebuild her life.
Now she spends her days making abstract art, thinking about artificial intelligence, worrying about jobs that may not exist in ten years, and wondering whether adulthood is still waiting for her somewhere.
She is fascinated by AI and afraid of it. She uses it to create, even as she watches AI-assisted art outperform the work she makes by hand. She dreams about teaching, writing, independence, and a future with more possibilities than her present seems to offer.
Female NEET in the Age of AI is a raw, personal memoir about war, mental illness, poverty, art, technology, and the strange experience of trying to build a life while the world itself is changing at an overwhelming speed.
This is not a story written after everything worked out.
It is a story written from the middle of the uncertainty.
From someone who survived her past and is still trying to figure out her future.
