  • 54. Treat AI as a Person: Exploring Ethan Mollick's Co-Intelligence

    Support the channel by purchasing Co-Intelligence through our supporter link here.

    A couple weeks ago, a notable voice in the artificial intelligence movement, Dr. Ethan Mollick, dropped a book on artificial intelligence called Co-Intelligence.
    Ethan Mollick is particularly known for his integrating AI into his business courses at the University of Pennsylvania; he was the first person I saw bring AI policies into his course syllabi in December 2022, when most folks had not even heard of ChatGPT yet.
    He has also explored AI’s broader implications through his popular Substack newsletter, "One Useful Thing", and collaborative research on AI's impact in professional settings like consulting. Though not a computer scientist, his expertise in business innovation provides a unique, non-technical perspective on AI, making complex subjects accessible and relevant.
    In this episode, I explore Co-Intelligence and offer my full review of Dr. Mollick’s book.

  • 53. AI Essentials: Using AI For Strategic Thinking

    As many users establish their routine for leveraging AI tools in education, I am noticing a pattern in many of these interactions.
    Most user interactions with AI are A + B responses.
    A user prompts chatGPT or Claude for a specific deliverable, such as a lesson plan, agenda, or summary, and once the AI tool generates it, the interaction is over.
    I have found myself engaging in long dialogue exchanges with ChatGPT - sometimes I may be asking for support around a specific deliverable but most of the time, I am not.
    Instead, I am leveraging ChatGPT and other AI tools for strategic thinking. AI has helped me think more comprehensively around plans, projects, initiatives, and other aims I may be pushing towards in the various professional roles I play.
    Oftentimes, strategic thinking happens with colleagues or individually by journaling or using a consultancy protocol but what happens when you introduce AI into the equation?
