About this audiobook
Every night, at kitchen tables, people do a strange new kind of homework. They teach the machine to do their own jobs, and they call it craft, hobby, a passion. Anything but work.
Matt is fifty-four, a logistics coordinator who used to be in a band, and the word that ruled his nineteenth year was "sold out." The worst thing you could be, and the best, depending which way you faced.
"Sold Out" follows one quiet thread from the fast-food tray to the IKEA hex key to the AI Skill he builds after supper, down to the hidden workers who make the machine seem smart. It does not tell you to stop. It asks you to call the work by its name.
