MIT Sloan professor Eric So’s new book, “The Collision: What AI Does to Us,” explores how artificial intelligence is reshaping human cognition by tempting people to outsource thinking, leading to cognitive atrophy and diminished capacity for sustained focus and judgment. So advises employees to preserve their unique thinking skills, managers to reward both productivity and reasoning, executives to focus on talent development rather than cost-cutting, and educators to teach AI as a tool rather than ban it, emphasizing that AI should amplify human capabilities without replacing critical thinking.
