"This is not a book about Artificial Intelligence. It's a book about us."
Oh Shift! was written for the people inside that gap. It's a practical, human-centred guide to understanding what AI acceleration actually demands of us — not technically, but personally. It gives individuals and teams a way to understand the change, respond to it clearly, and move through it with intention rather than overwhelm.
