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.
