“What emerges is not a ledger of winners and losers but a set of skilfully drawn portraits of power, self-awareness, hard choices and collective contestation.” Frances Flanagan reviews @sarahoconnor_'s We Are Not Machines https://t.co/gXWumAW8yK 4.9K views · 3 likes · 1 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

I had a lot of fun recording this podcast about my book We Are Not Machines with @timharford.ft.com live at the Bristol economics festival - watching Tim with an audience in the palm of his hand was truly watching a master at work. https://t.co/UIa4NKzmjB 1.5K views · 7 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

The book is called We Are Not Machines: The Fight for the Future of Work and you can buy it here https://t.co/qW76MRT12p... And if you would like to hear me talk about the book, I'm appearing at Conway Hall on Sunday to do just that! https://t.co/Ld0K2zzsZj... 1.6K views · 11 likes · 2 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

Today, my book finally enters the big wide world! Exciting and also nerve-wracking! I'm really thrilled with this lovely review in The Spectator today, which describes it as "powerful and refreshing". If that sounds like YOUR cup of tea, please buy a copy! https://t.co/OQWS2pjOlo 51K views · 152 likes · 18 reposts · 8 replies Open on X →

I can't promise it's a good book - that's for you to decide. But I can promise that I worked very hard on it, and in spite of that (or because of it?) it's pretty short :) https://t.co/EhqWpVIbp1 1.7K views · 20 likes · 1 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

I think we're in danger of seeing AI as an external force which is coming at us, & the best we can do is technical mapping exercises of who it will hurt & help. But how technology changes the world has never just been a technical question, as I hope this book makes clear. 2.1K views · 10 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

None of the people I met were "winners" or "losers" to be dropped into one column or another of an economist's spreadsheet. They're protagonists in a story which, yes, is shaping them, but which they're also shaping. 1.1K views · 8 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Are you tired of the utopian/dystopian AI predictions from CEOs? Do you want to hear what's ACTUALLY happening, from the people it's actually happening TO? If so, I have good news: I felt the same, so I have worn out my shoe-leather & written this book! https://t.co/qW76MRT12p... 29.7K views · 129 likes · 23 reposts · 15 replies Open on X →
