Co-Intelligence

Living and Working with AI

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.

Excellent book, very poor narration

A great overview on AI and its applications. Unfortunately, hindered by very poor narration. I completely understand, wanting to read your own book, but ultimately hinders the experience.

If you’re curious about the present and near future of AI this is a Gold Mine.

Cutting edge… brilliant insight communicated in a very easy and digestible way. You won’t be disappointed going for a second listen for notes.

very informative

I really enjoyed the audio book but it was a bit difficult understanding the person reading

Mollick Avoids the Hype

Been eagerly awaiting this book for some weeks. Mollick’s insight on AI and weaving it into the audiobook (with a different voice!!) is hauntingly brilliant. I will get my colleagues together and dig in together as we go over it again. I especially loved the parts that reminded me that AI is a supercharger for our own creativity not a replacement. Well done!

If you read one book on generative AI, this should be it

He's done an outstanding job of fully explaining generative AI and exploring It's implications. There are many important ideas in this book including his four rules for working with AI, th many ways that he demonstrates how we could be collaborating with AI, and the multiple scenarios of possible futures with AI. However, what I enjoyed most was his descriptions of how he utilized generative AI to write this book: that content truly illuminated the process of co-intelligent collaboration.
