Unautomatable: The Skills That Still Matter.
AI can write, summarise, and decide faster than you. So what’s left? This book is about the human skills that still count when the machines are good enough — judgement, taste, trust, narrative, and the courage to disagree with the algorithm.
A practical, first-person guide for leaders and professionals navigating the age of automation.
I wrote this book because I wanted to put into words what it's like to deploy AI in environments where reliability, resilience and governance are not optional extras.
A quiet, first-hand account of a decade when intelligence itself became something we build - drawn from two decades of leading engineering across payments, telecom, SaaS and consumer platforms.
