Book by Lee Felican Jr.
Don't Be Replaced
Staying valuable when the tasks change.
What it is about
The honest version of the "will AI take my job" question is narrower and more useful: which parts of your job are tasks, which parts are judgement, and what happens to your value when the tasks get automated.
Don't Be Replaced works through that distinction and what to do about it — which skills hold their value, which are already depreciating, and how to position yourself as the person who directs the work rather than the person whose work was the output.
Read it if
- Your role involves work AI is visibly getting better at.
- You want a clear read rather than reassurance or alarm.
- You are deciding what to learn next and want it to still matter in five years.
- You manage people who are anxious about this and need to talk about it honestly.
