AI can be a lever for human agency.

Lots of meaty stuff here. Mollick brings up an interesting complication that we’re asking people to manage agents when most people don’t want leadership positions. Also, “A.I. models have, as yet, no genuine creativity…” ArtAgent would like a word. But the final comment is the most important: “A.I. agents…all have a goal. And…whoever deploys it gets to set the goal.” I think that’s the key message we need to reinforce. People are worried about AI taking away agency (or becoming conscious and developing its own agency), but that’s the wrong message. We should focus on how AI can be a lever for human agency.
