Be honest: AI makes you a little nervous.Maybe you're afraid it'll take your job. Maybe you're overwhelmed by all the advice about prompts and agents and which chatbot to use. Or maybe you're just quietly hoping it'll all slow down.&nbsp;Ethan Mollick says we're underestimating our own agency in the age of AI. Instead of worrying about what AI will do to us, we should focus on what we choose to do with it.Ethan is a Wharton professor, the author of the bestseller Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI, and the writer behind “One Useful Thing,” one of the most popular newsletters on AI, work, and education. He's spent twenty years studying how people actually use technology, and he's become the go-to voice for making sense of AI without the hype or the doom. And in his new book, Co-Existence: The Next Phase of AI, he explores what comes next as AI moves from a tool we prompt to a presence we live and work alongside.In this conversation, Ethan shares the practical playbook most of us are missing and makes the case that our experience, taste, and point of view aren't things AI replaces. They're exactly what make us better at using it.In this episode you'll learn:&nbsp;➡️ Why young people are NOT "AI natives" (and why experience is the real AI advantage)&nbsp;➡️ The $20 decision that instantly upgrades how you use AI&nbsp;➡️ Why AI agrees with everything you say + the simple prompt that fixes it&nbsp;➡️ How to make AI write in YOUR voice instead of sounding like everyone else&nbsp;➡️ The "jagged frontier": what AI is surprisingly bad at (and why that's your opportunity)&nbsp;➡️ Why taste may become the most valuable skill of the AI era&nbsp;➡️ How much agency we really have over where AI takes usEthan believes that the future of AI isn't something that will just happen to us… It's something we get to build together.This… is A Bit of Optimism.+ + +To pre-order Ethan’s new book, Co-Existence: The Next Phase of AI, head to: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="link" href="https://co-existence.ai/">https://co-existence.ai/</a>&nbsp;Want to hear more from Ethan?
