We Are Not Machines
The Fight for the Future of Work
Book • 2026
When prize-winning Financial Times journalist Sarah O'Connor investigated the front lines of technological change, she found workers feeling lonelier, less creative and less human amid AI and robots.
From Amazon warehouse workers to AI-editing translators, the book explores how technology can robotize us unless contested.
Inspired by historical fights from 19th-century cotton mills to modern Swedish mines, it shows how we can shape work to respect our limits and minds.
