Publisher Description
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
From Wharton professor and author of the popular One Useful Thing Substack newsletter Ethan Mollick comes the definitive playbook for working, learning, and living in the new age of AI
Something new entered our world in November 2022 — the first general purpose AI that could pass for a human and do the kinds of creative, innovative work that only humans could do previously. Wharton professor Ethan Mollick immediately understood what ChatGPT meant: after millions of years on our own, humans had developed a kind of co-intelligence that could augment, or even replace, human thinking. Through his writing, speaking, and teaching, Mollick has become one of the most prominent and provocative explainers of AI, focusing on the practical aspects of how these new tools for thought can transform our world.
In Co-Intelligence, Mollick urges us to engage with AI as co-worker, co-teacher, and coach. He assesses its profound impact on business and education, using dozens of real-time examples of AI in action. Co-Intelligence shows what it means to think and work together with smart machines, and why it's imperative that we master that skill.
Mollick challenges us to utilize AI's enormous power without losing our identity, to learn from it without being misled, and to harness its gifts to create a better human future. Wide ranging, hugely thought-provoking, optimistic, and lucid, Co-Intelligence reveals the promise and power of this new era.
Customer Reviews
Thought-Provoking and Accessible
"Co-Intelligence" reexamines the significance of knowledge, art and education in our digital era, enriched by Mollick's narration and his clever and humorous use of LLM-generated content throughout the book.
At just over four hours, the audiobook is an enlightening yet digestible journey through AI’s recent impacts, and one I recommend for an informative yet entertaining experience. 🙏🏿
Good overall information but pretty general.
I would suggest including following in subsequent editions
1. Newer ways to counter problem of AI taking over and signs of these.
2. How do you differentiate sentient from intelligent.
3. What are factors required for continuing improvements in AI.
4. How are AI and robotics related and what does it looks like.
If you can put in hard stops, is it really sentient.
Can we put hard stops in programming AI.
Must read if you want to get ahead
Great info in 4 hours. It should have been 8 hours but the author reads it at 1.x speed for you.
