{"product_id":"benjamin-todd-80-000-hours-2026","title":"Benjamin Todd: 80,000 Hours [2026]","description":"You have about 80,000 hours in your career: 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year,\u003cbr\u003efor 40 years. This means your choice of career is the most important decision\u003cbr\u003eyou’ll ever make.\u003cbr\u003eChoose well, and you can have a more rewarding, interesting life, and also help\u003cbr\u003esolve some of the world’s most pressing problems. Choose poorly, and you\u003cbr\u003ecould waste decades.\u003cbr\u003eSo what should you do? Most advice is based on no research, instead offering\u003cbr\u003e(misleading) platitudes like ‘follow your passion’. It’s surprisingly out of date,\u003cbr\u003efocusing on traditional paths rather than those most likely to thrive in an age of\u003cbr\u003eAI. And if you want to help others, the advice is even more simplistic: telling you\u003cbr\u003eto choose careers like nurse or doctor, when there are paths in which almost\u003cbr\u003eanyone can save more lives. In fact, some careers have hundreds of times more\u003cbr\u003eimpact than others, but most of us have no idea which ones.\u003cbr\u003eBenjamin Todd is the founder of 80,000 Hours, a non-profit that’s spent over ten\u003cbr\u003eyears researching how to have a meaningful and impactful career. Here he\u003cbr\u003eintroduces a tried-and-tested toolkit framework that has already led thousands of\u003cbr\u003epeople to change their path. It covers:\u003cbr\u003eWhat really makes for a dream job, and why finding it probably doesn’t\u003cbr\u003einvolve ‘following your passion’.\u003cbr\u003eHow to identify which global problems are most pressing, and why they\u003cbr\u003emight involve AI as much as climate change.\u003cbr\u003eWhich roles are likely to be automated, and how to ensure yours isn’t\u003cbr\u003eamong them.\u003cbr\u003eIt’s also full of practical tips and tools. You’ll come away with a plan to use your\u003cbr\u003e80,000 hours in a way that’s rewarding and fulfils your potential to make a\u003cbr\u003edifference.\u003cbr\u003e''A ridiculously in-depth guide about how to find that perfect career for you.''
