AI Can Make You the Best in the World at Your Job. Ethan Mollick Tells Us How.

About this episode

When ChatGPT launched less than four years ago, it couldn’t count the r’s in “strawberry.” Today, AI is solving fabled math problems, writing software, accelerating scientific discovery, and transforming medicine. But if machines can do the hard work for us, what happens to our ability to think, learn, and create? Today on the show, Wharton professor and AI expert Ethan Mollick returns to The Next Big Idea to discuss his new book, Co-Existence. He and Rufus explore what happens as AI takes on more of our work, and how we can keep growing alongside it. They talk about using AI to sharpen our thinking without eroding our skills and why this could be a golden age for entrepreneurs. They also take on a bigger question: How much control are we willing to give up? __________ ⏪ Check out Ethan's previous appearance on the show here. 🎥 The Next Big Idea is on YouTube!
