The Human Interface

A practical guide to understanding AI, workplace surveillance, and the technologies shaping our jobs—and how workers, managers, and communities can build a future that works for everyone.

Most books about workplace technology are mixed in acronyms and technical jargon. This is the practical explainer that working people actually need to make sense of it all.

Alvaro Bedoya, former commissioner of the Federal Trade Commission

Essential reading for one of the most important conversations of our time. The Human Interface guides us as workers in how to engage in the design of our technological future.

David Autor, Ford Professor of Economics at MIT and leading economist on technology and work

...the research and analysis necessary for workers to negotiate for their rights in increasingly data-fied workplaces....a timely and critical tool for all of us.

Michelle Miller, director of innovation at Harvard Law School's Center for Labor and a Just Economy and cofounder of Coworker.org

When we center people's experiences, we build better systems. This book offers concrete steps any team can use to make technology, more humane, accountable, and safe.

Dr. Desmond Upton Patton, PIK University professor and founding director of SAFELab, UPenn

Dr. Negron lays out the 'third way' we urgently need-beyond the tired binary of labor versus innovation-showing how workers, technologists, policymakers, and even investors can build a future that's both humane and boldly embraces technology's promise.

Lyel Resner, lecturer at MIT and former VC-backed founder

─ The crisis is now

Inside the Human Interface

AI isn't coming for jobs in some distant future. Algorithmic management, automated surveillance, and data-driven decision-making are already reshaping how millions of people work every day.

The Human Interface documents what's happening on the ground and why it matters. This book connects the dots between investor-driven tech deployment, workplace power dynamics, and the erosion of worker agency in real time.

─ Who this is for

Made for the People Shaping Work

Workers trying to understand how technology is reshaping their jobs. Organizers building campaigns around algorithmic accountability.

Policymakers looking for evidence-based frameworks. Researchers seeking primary sources. Educators building curriculum around the future of work.

─ What readers will gain

A Worker-Centered Path Forward

A clear-eyed analysis of the forces reshaping labor, concrete frameworks for worker-centered tech governance, and practical pathways from understanding to action.

The future isn't something that happens to us.

It's something we build together. Start the conversation with The Human Interface.

Let's Start a Conversation

The most important conversations about the future aren’t happening only in boardrooms, government offices, or technology companies. They’re happening in workplaces, neighborhoods, classrooms, union halls, community centers, and around kitchen tables.

Wilneida speaks with organizations, workers, leaders, students, and communities across the country about how technology is changing our lives—and how we can build a future that reflects our values.
