A professor at an elite university noticed something alarming: every student's work was flawless . . . and nearly identical. All of it generated by AI. So she did the unthinkable (for the students, anyway). She banned devices and allowed only pen and paper. What happened next surprised everyone, including her students. But going Old School isn't the overall point of this episode. Cal uses this story to give a taste of the evolution of his podcast Big Questions: The Future of Work. In this episode, best-selling author Jamie Metzl describes how he used the work ethic he'd developed over decades to combine with the speed and scope of AI in the writing of his new book: The AI Ten Commandments. Meanwhile CEO coach Charles Gaudet predicts how we are close to a day when people will apply for jobs with AI at their side. Job applicants will soon hear the phrase BYOA. That's: Bring Your Own Agents. In both cases, this runway answers the question of how to get the best out of ourselves and AI together. With Old School values and New Age tools.
