"From Wharton professor, AI expert, and author of the One Useful Thing newsletter, a clear-eyed, pragmatic, and revelatory vision of our new age of generative AI. "After a few hours of using generative AI systems," Ethan Mollick writes in the introduction to his book, "it dawns on you that you are interacting with something new, something alien, and that things are about to change." The nature of this alien intelligence, and how it will change the way you work, learn, and live, is the story he tells in Co-Intelligence. Through his academic research, media appearance, and hugely popular Substack, Mollick has emerged as one of the most vital voices in the AI conversation. In his signature lucid and eye-opening prose, Mollick marshals cutting-edge research and dozens of real-time examples of AI in action as a coworker, coteacher, and coach to show how humans can collaborate productively with AI. He also argues that our AI future is much weirder, and coming much faster, than most people think. Mollick shows how AI empowers English majors and art history experts more than coders, impacts knowledge workers more than blue-collar workers, and upends the concept of homework even as it makes teachers more important. Instead of the cold, logical AIs of science fiction, we ended up with AIs that are bad at math, but that beat humans on creativity tests and can cleverly summarize entire manuscripts. After being given this one, ChatGPT wrote: "The book insightfully delves into the symbiotic relationship between humans and AI -- a subject close to my digital heart. Mollick dissects the complexities and unfolds the potential of our intertwined futures with nuance and foresight. For readers and AIs alike, this is a masterful guide to understanding our collective journey toward an intelligent partnership." Hugely thought-provoking, optimistic, and engaging, Co-Intelligence shows what it means to think, work, and live with smart machines, and why it's imperative that we master that skill" -- Jacket flap
