    Episode 2: Help! How Much AI Is Too Much?

    Have a question for the experts? Click here to submit it and we may feature it on a future episode! AI isn't necessarily a problem, but how you're using it might be. In Episode 2, the hosts of F&W break down the cognitive science of offloading, why handing tasks off to AI might unintentionally erode mental skills you can't afford to lose, and how one simple shift in your prompting style can change everything. Join us for an AI conversation that's all science and no fearmongering (not an easy feat!). Shout out to Karl in Minneapolis, MN for this episode's awesome topic! BONUS CONTENT: Here is a link to Dr. Ranes’ LinkedIn post on using AI to encode rather than offload - enjoy! https://acesse.one/c4pcoh3 Want more nerdy cognitive content to help you master your mind?
