Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Prompt or Perish examines the new rules of professional survival in an economy shaped by artificial intelligence, machine-written language, and instruction-driven work. Across offices, universities, consultancies, public institutions, and corporate teams, a silent shift is already under way. Tasks once linked to expertise, drafting, explanation, summarising, reporting, and first-pass analysis, are now increasingly produced through prompts. In this new environment, the professional who cannot direct artificial intelligence with clarity, judgement, and discipline risks becoming slower, less visible, and easier to replace.This book explains what happens when language stops being only a means of communication and becomes a mechanism of control. A prompt is no longer a simple question. It is an operational command which shapes outputs, affects decisions, influences managers, and changes internal hierarchies. Prompting now touches productivity, authority, knowledge, communication, status, and career resilience. Workers are no longer judged only by what they know or by how hard they work. They are increasingly judged by how well they frame tasks, direct systems, inspect outputs, and defend quality under pressure.Prompt or Perish shows how AI is redrawing the meaning of competence in finance, audit, risk, teaching, research, management, negotiation, communication, and daily organisational life. It explains why knowledge alone is no longer enough, why passive use of AI creates hidden professional weakness, and why strong human oversight is becoming a decisive advantage. It also examines the growing divide between people who merely use AI and those who direct it with intent, structure, and control.More than a book about technology, this is a book about work, judgement, and professional power. It addresses the deeper consequences of machine-led productivity, including false confidence, output inflation, weakened critical thinking, changing performance standards, and the ethical strain of surviving in systems increasingly governed through prompts. Readers will find a clear account of how to build prompt discipline, how to create repeatable prompt methods, how to avoid weak outputs, and how to turn AI from a threat into a tool without surrendering intellectual responsibility.Written for managers, analysts, lecturers, auditors, consultants, researchers, and knowledge workers, Prompt or Perish offers a serious and realistic framework for understanding the new professional order. It does not promise easy success. It shows why the future will favour those who can think before the prompt, shape the prompt with precision, challenge the output with scepticism, and take responsibility for what enters real decisions. In a world where machine-generated language is becoming common, human judgement becomes more important, not less.For readers interested in artificial intelligence and work, career survival, prompt engineering, digital transformation, knowledge work, management strategy, and the future of professional authority, this book offers a sharp and timely account of what is changing, why it matters, and how serious professionals should respond.
