Praise for We Are Not Machines "Sounds the alarm on the need to protect workers' rights inthe AI-dominated workplace." -- Booklist "Original and enlightening, rooted in reality and populated by people. Not many books about the labor market make you laugh and bring tears to your eyes. This one does. It's the kind of writing that AI will never replace." -- The Times "Concluding that the 'real danger is not that we successfully make machines in our image, but that we silently remake ourselves in theirs,' O'Connor nonetheless maintains optimism that the 'future of work can be. worthy of the human mind.' It's a balanced and forward-thinking take on AI.

" -- Publishers Weekly "A fierce, wise, beautiful book." -- Tim Harford , author of The Data Detective "A lively and engaging read which teases out some compelling human stories. O'Connor describes both the peril and promise unleashed hy AI-and issues a powerful call to arms for us all about how to respond. A must-read for educators, policy makers, executives, and employees." -- Gillian Tett , author of Anthro-Vision "Brilliantly insightful.no one provides a better worm's eye view of the world of work than Sarah O'Connor." -- Andy Haldane , former Bank of England chief economist "Sarah is the best writer out there on the world of work, and her debut is as insightful, surprising and illuminating as I hoped." -- Sathnam Sanghera , author of Empireland "An invaluable guide to one of the biggest economic stories of our age.

Her warning is important and grounded: there is a better path." -- Carl Benedikt Frey , author of How Progress Ends.
