Title: Reshuffle
Subtitle: Who wins when AI restacks the knowledge economy
Description: What if we’ve misunderstood the real power of AI, not as a tool for doing tasks faster through automation, but as the missing mechanism to restructure economic systems by radically improving coordination?

When machines gain the ability to perform knowledge work, the implications go far beyond efficiency. The balance of power shifts as new organizational forms emerge, products are reinvented, and industries are transformed around new vectors of competition.

In Reshuffle, Sangeet Paul Choudary reframes one of the most hyped technologies of our time not as a smarter brain, but as a better glue.

From the overlooked brilliance of the shipping container to the F1 pits that dethroned Schumacher’s dominance, he unearths a powerful pattern: the most transformative technologies do not merely automate, they transform entire economic systems.

With vivid storytelling and razor-sharp analysis, Reshuffle connects the dots between technology, behavior, and economic architecture. It delivers a bold and incisive exploration of how AI’s impact goes far beyond changing how we work to reorienting the foundations of power and control in our economic systems.

Reshuffle unpacks the four key tensions driving this transformation: between workers and their tools, the providers of these tools and the firms that use them, the businesses consolidating power and the industries they disrupt, and between empowered individuals and entrenched incumbents.

Blending compelling examples, historical parallels, and bold insights, Reshuffle equips readers to navigate the many opportunities and challenges that AI introduces while reshaping the knowledge economy. This book is your guide to understanding who wins, and who gets left behind, when AI restacks the deck.
