THE SHALLOW USE OF AI MAKE US FEEL SMARTER, BUT IS IN FACT MAKING US DUMBER, AND WORSE AT OUR JOBS. That’s the uncomfortable finding by the Work AI Institute, reported in Business Insider, December 2025.
AI IS TRANSFORMING THE WORKPLACE
AI tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Microsoft Co-pilot are transforming the way we work. But 95% of people use these tools in a shallow, superficial, and almost Google-like way to find answers. That’s not making them any smarter.
AI AS YOUR 2ND BRAIN
Take fully advantage of what AI has to offer. Don’t use AI as a glorified search engine. Instead, use AI as your 2nd brain. A tool that helps you think more clearly, make better decisions and solve problems more effectively.
In short, it’s about combining CRITICAL THINKING + THE POWER OF AI
DESIGNED FOR MANAGERS
This course is designed for managers and working professionals, at all levels, who have to deal with a diverse of problems and issues in the workplace. Unlike mathematical problems, managerial problems don’t have a right or wrong answer. Organisational settings are complicated by social interactions, hierarchy, agendas and culture. Which means that managers who can use AI as their 2nd brain have an advantage.
A COURSE = SET OF HACKS
This course will help you:
- Frame problems.
- Review data and evidence.
- Consider options and alternatives.
- Be aware of biases.
- Make sound judgement.
Unlike a typical course, where you work sequentially from one lecture to the next, we organise this course as a series of hacks, each of which can be used independently or stacked together. This reflects how managers actually work in practice, and this course is a set of resources that you can return to time and time again.
