She helped thousands of workers survive being replaced by AI. Then the algorithm came for her.
After twelve years as the compassionate face of automation at a Silicon Valley firm, Petra Dolan finds herself on the receiving end of the very offboarding chatbot she helped design. It is, she admits, a little funny. So she does what displaced executives do: she pivots.
"The Dolan Method" makes her a star on the displaced-worker conference circuit - a framework for finding, performing, and monetizing your authentic self in an economy that no longer needs what you used to do. Petra tells every audience she discovered it through honest reckoning. She did not. She built it the way she built everything: backward from the desired result.
Sharply funny and quietly devastating, this novel follows a woman who becomes the world's foremost expert on human authenticity while having almost no access to her own - until the framework starts to crack in ways she cannot reverse-engineer her way out of.
