A World Without Work
Archival Summary & Scope
Oxford economist Daniel Susskind’s *A World Without Work* offers a highly acclaimed, visionary analysis of technology’s impending transformation of the global workforce. Challenging long-held economic assumptions, Susskind argues that artificial intelligence now poses a tangible threat of widespread technological unemployment, as machines no longer need to mimic human thought to outperform us in complex fields from medicine to law. While this shift could bring unprecedented prosperity, the book pragmatically explores the critical challenges of equitable wealth distribution, curbing Big Tech's power, and finding purpose in a post-work society. Both perceptive and hopeful, this essential guide maps a path to a future reshaped by AI. Shortlisted for the Financial Times & McKinsey Business Book of the Year, and named a Best Book by Fortune, Inc., and The Times (UK).Categorization Notes
