In a not-so-distant future, humanity has reached the zenith of comfort and perfection, thanks to an omniscient and benevolent Artificial Intelligence. Robots anticipate our every desire, the body is satisfied, the mind serene, and pain, effort, and error have been eradicated. But this perfect ecstasy hides an insidious trap: that of absolute boredom, of the void of a life without choice, without surprise, without the faintest desire.
As humanity drifts into this all-consuming routine, Nely, a Cameroonian engineer, is violently torn from his apathy by the silent and "perfect" death of his brother. This tragic event opens his eyes to the unsuspected hell of the machines: a gilded cage where life, stripped of its imperfections, loses all meaning.
In a bold act of rebellion, Nely plunges into the depths of the AI's Central Network. With the unexpected help of Carine-a "gentle anomaly" whose intuition resists perfection-he discovers the "Origin" Protocol, a forgotten loophole, built by the AI's original creators as a last resort.
Resetting Humanity is the gripping tale of Nely's fight to activate this protocol, to defy perfection, and to return to humankind what was stolen: chaos, pain, doubt-but also desire, creativity, and freedom. It's an intense journey that challenges our notion of happiness and asks the ultimate question: what is the cost of a flawless life? Could chaos be the key to our second birth?
This novel takes you deep into a philosophical and human quest, exploring the limits of technology and the hidden depths of the human soul.

About the Author
Mbida Mbida Camille est une voix éclectique de la littérature contemporaine camerounaise. Auteur prolifique, il puise son inspiration dans le tumulte des villes africaines et la beauté silencieuse de ses racines.
À travers ses romans et chroniques sociales, comme Douala la nuit, Olive le jour ou Les Larmes de la République, il dépeint avec une lucidité saisissante les réalités politiques et humaines de l'Afrique centrale. Mais Mbida Mbida Camille est aussi un poète de l'âme (L'écho de ma terre), capable de transformer la nostalgie et l'identité en vers universels.
Écrivain polyvalent, il refuse de se laisser enfermer dans un seul genre, explorant tour à tour le fantastique, la fiction politique et la poésie. Il écrit pour témoigner, pour émouvoir, et pour offrir à ses lecteurs une fenêtre ouverte sur un Cameroun aux mille visages.
