Daniel Susskind is a prominent British economist, professor, author, and speaker, recognized for his work on the future of work and the impact of artificial intelligence and technology on society.

His academic career took off at the prestigious University of Oxford, where he is a professor of economics and a fellow at the Institute for Ethics in Artificial Intelligence.
