Your clicks, movements, and digital signals are making others rich. Isn't it time you got your share?

In today's AI-driven economy, nearly every action you take - from browsing online to using a fitness tracker, driving a connected vehicle, or speaking to a smart home device - generates valuable data. This data doesn't disappear. It powers the algorithms behind trillion-dollar companies, fuels the rise of generative AI, and increasingly contributes to the displacement of human labor across industries. While automation accelerates, your unpaid data silently drives the systems reshaping the future of work - and you're left out of the rewards.

But where do you fit in?

The Data Dividend shines a light on the hidden world of digital labor. Eustace Asanghanwa unpacks:

How big tech companies quietly turn your data into profits. The rise of AI models trained on your unpaid contributions. The economic forces accelerating job displacement in the AI era. The technologies - like confidential computing and data trusts - that can shift power back to individuals. Bold ideas for reclaiming fairness and dignity in the data economy.

Combining clear storytelling with economic insight, this book is for anyone who wants to understand the silent forces shaping our digital lives - and why it's time to demand a fairer deal.

If you've ever wondered why your data is everyone's business but yours... this book is for you.
