AI For Smart Humans

Most AI books teach you how to talk to machines. This one trains the human mind talking to them.

As AI gets better at understanding ordinary language, Martin Poliacik argues that the advantage is shifting from prompt tricks to people who can think clearly, explain precisely and stay in control. Hybrid intelligence, as he means it, is collaboration: human ingenuity and judgement meeting machine speed and reach to produce work neither could create alone. Drawing on almost thirty years of teaching critical thinking and communication, he introduces compensAItion, deliberate mental exercise that keeps your cognitive muscles strong as machines take on more of the work.

Instead of another AI manual you’ll get a guide to becoming the kind of human who can thrive alongside non-human minds.
