Overview

Neuroscience, psychology, and history blend together to form a simple and compelling argument for why cultivating one's own mind is the key to navigating the age of artificial intelligence.

Whether you embrace it or resent it, the fact remains that artificial intelligence is becoming a part of everyday life. As we navigate a new technological landscape, we’re discovering that tools are only as good as their workman. AI programs have the capability to save time and effort, but without an understanding of how to prompt it, it is unlikely to produce useful results.As classic computing wisdom goes, "garbage in, garbage out."

To truly learn is to do hard things, and in doing hard things we inevitably encounter some degree of frustration and failure. The key to survival in an AI world lies in recognizing that this struggle is how we learn. Each time you write an email to someone, you become a little more proficient at interpersonal communication. When you assign an AI bot write an email for you, your own ability to communicate deteriorates.

Through six simple concepts, backed by science, they will show readers how, when presented with new tools of convenience, those who don't allow their own skill to atrophy are best prepared for success.
