Listen Later

Summary:

I'm working with an Ohio high school student. He is about to graduate from high school and wondering if he should go to college or get a job. He’s also concerned about getting into debt. Is it best for him to go to college or get hands on practical experience instead? Can AI help him decide?

To find out I asked AI, Claude 3.7 Sonnet for help. It features a new step-by-step analysis to decision making. It considers factors you wouldn’t necessarily consider. I then uploaded the analysis to Notebook.lm and created this podcast. Listen to the recommendations or download the analysis below.
