NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A ridiculously in-depth guide to finding a fulfilling, AI-proof career
"This career guide is among the most thoughtful and grounded I've seen."—Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author of Slow Productivity
You have about 80,000 hours in your career: 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, for 40 years. That makes it the most important decision you’ll ever make.
Choose well, and you can have a more rewarding, interesting life, and also help solve some of the world’s most pressing problems. Choose poorly, and you could waste decades.
So what should you do? Most advice is based on no research, offering only misleading platitudes like “follow your passion.” It's surprisingly out-of-date, focusing on traditional paths rather than those most likely to thrive in an age of AI.
Benjamin Todd is the founder of 80,000 Hours, a nonprofit that has spent over fifteen years researching how to have a fulfilling and impactful career that still pays the bills. In this book, he introduces a tried-and-tested toolkit that has already helped thousands of people change their career paths. It covers:
· What really makes for a dream job, and why it probably doesn't involve “following your passion”
· How to have a positive impact in your career, and why doing so might involve focusing on AI as much as on climate change
· Which roles are likely to be automated, and how to ensure yours isn't among them
Whether you're just starting out, looking to switch paths, or want to have a bigger impact in your current career, it’s full of practical tips and tools that can help. You’ll come away with a plan to use your 80,000 hours in a way that’s rewarding, future-proof, and makes a difference.
