Are we in a bubble that’s going to burst, or a boom that will carry us forward – and which companies will successfully make the jump to the future? Greg gets some Canadian founder therapy along the way.

Are we going to lose our minds to artificial intelligence? Cognitive offloading is the biggest bogeyman in AI right now. And with good reason - it took us 10 years to realize what social media had done to our brains, and by then it was too late.

New studies from MIT say ChatGPT power users have decreased brainwave activity – and are showing signs of dependence. So can we use AI without giving up our cognitive skills? How do we “borrow 30 points of IQ” from AI without losing our minds completely?

Greg speaks with Dr. Sahar Yousef, cognitive neuroscientist and lecturer at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business, and one of the world’s leading experts on cognitive training and the science of productivity. Sahar shares what we can learn from the research, what's she's seeing in the lab, and how she's handling AI with her students. How can we use AI for our benefit, and what's on the line?
