Synopsis

The AI revolution isn’t coming — it’s already here, silently dismantling industries while governments remain dangerously unprepared. This urgent, unflinching analysis reveals how artificial intelligence is simultaneously eliminating jobs across every sector of the global economy.

When Amazon, McKinsey, and British Telecom cut hundreds of thousands of roles overnight, the economic catastrophe begins. When customer service, logistics, finance, healthcare, and manufacturing all automate in rapid succession, traditional safety nets collapse — and society is left staring into a void.

You’re Fired. By an Algorithm. combines forensic economic insight with human stories from the frontlines of disruption — a Nigerian doctor displaced by AI diagnostics, a factory worker in Mexico learning to code, a child growing up in a post-job world. Through these narratives, Halpern reveals what’s at stake for all of us.

But this is not just a warning — it’s a survival blueprint. Halpern lays out a bold, practical response: an AI Super Profit Tax, Universal Basic Income, Emergency Relief Funds, and a complete reimagining of work and purpose. This isn’t about stopping automation — it’s about making sure AI’s unprecedented wealth creation serves humanity, not destroys it.

If you want to understand — and shape — the most significant labour market upheaval in human history, start here.
