One reassuring thing about teaching leaders to work with AI: They've been building AI skills their whole careers... without realizing it.
Judgment, context, and institutional memory don’t disappear just because the tools change. They become more valuable.
decision.substack.com
What’s the most valuable skill in the AI era?
⛔ It’s not coding.
⛔ It’s not prompt tricks.
⛔ It’s not “keeping up with the latest model.”
💪 It’s judgment.
Whenever a new #AI capability drops, debate centers on how powerful it is. That's the wrong question.
Right question: bit.ly/quaesita_spe...
A subtle shift I’m seeing in strong leaders:
They’re less interested in what AI can do and more interested in what it shouldn’t.
That instinct turns out to be a competitive advantage.
This distinction is central to how I teach Decision-Making with ChatGPT. Enroll here 👉 decisiongptcourse.com
Change doesn’t happen because leaders commit harder. It happens when the way decisions are made changes.
That’s the real leverage in an age of AI and agents: Decisions.

Context-setting is a strategic act -- not just a prompt-writing detail. What we leave unsaid is often the biggest driver of downstream risk.

One thing AI failures expose quickly: implicit assumptions.
With people, shared context fills the gaps.
With machines, silence gets interpreted as permission.
That difference explains a lot of “AI went wrong” stories.

Data doesn’t drive decisions.
People do.
This gap between AI capability and decision design is why I built Decision-Making with ChatGPT.

People who were *excellent* at Google are often surprisingly bad at working with AI.
Not because they’re dong anything wrong, but because search trained us to compress, and AI needs context.
Search rewarded brevity.
AI rewards context.

Alignment beats accuracy - every time. (That’s not a metric. It’s a leadership choice.)
This is the core principle behind my Maven course, Decision-Making with ChatGPT. Cohorts 4 and 5, which both include a live Q&A with me, coming up on Jan 22 and Feb 12!

Most decision failures aren’t due to lack of data, they’re due to unclear judgment.
Cohort 4 of Decision-Making with ChatGPT is now open: 👉 maven.com/cassie-kozyr...
#StrategicThinking
So much wasted potential!
Most people use ChatGPT for emails and summaries. Forget busywork, let's focus on the things that make a real impact.

Who's surprised by this finding from Gartner that CEOs have less faith in their C-Level colleagues being AI-savvy in 2025/26 than they had in those same colleagues being tech savvy in 2019/20?

The more powerful the tool, the more the human matters.
AI can't replace what's most essential. Not everyone agrees. Do you?

Since several folks have complained to me recently about ChatGPT's sycophantic tone, I figured it's time for that PSA again:
🤯 YOU CAN CHANGE CHATGPT'S TONE. 🤯
I recommend "Efficient" - that's the one I use.
Click, click, done.
Last year, 364 students in 56 cities learned from me on @Maven. Will you take one of my AI courses for leaders, aspiring leaders, and curious self-improvers this year?

Stop fighting yourself, starting winning at your self-improvement resolutions!
I have a New Year's gift for you all: an enormous compendium of all the resolutions and motivation advice I’ve ever written. Now in illustrated form

3. Delete the Sludge. We focus on adding habits, but the real wins come from removing friction. Your life is the sum of your defaults. Stop being a dreamer; start being an architect.
The full 14-step Decision Science guide is here: 🔗 bit.ly/quaesita_res...
2. Audit your "Short-Run" Self. The You who sets the goal isn't the You who has to execute it. Stop trusting your future self to "just do it." Use pre-commitment—take away the choice before the temptation arrives. Make success the path of least resistance.

1. Beware the "Average Human" Trap. Science tells us what works for the majority, but you are not a statistic. Self-improvement is an N-of-1 experiment. If a "proven" plan feels like a straightjacket, it’s the wrong plan for your unique constraints.

It’s Dec 26. In five days, millions will set resolutions fueled by holiday guilt. By February, 80% will have failed.
The mistake? Using willpower to solve a design problem. Willpower is finite; behavioral architecture is infinite.

For my full take on AI companions for kids, the market for AI toys ($18.1 billion in 2024, projected to reach $60 billion by 2033), plus the nightmare bear and AI toy safety findings (spoiler: the guardrails rarely hold up past an hour of testing), head over to my newsletter at decision.substack.com

Oh, and sometimes the toy grows up a little too fast:
Last month, a ChatGPT-powered teddy bear just got yanked from shelves after teaching children about kitchen knives, fire starting, and BDSM.
Happy holidays!
Maybe check what's under the tree this year.
Real relationships have friction. That friction is the point.
A mirror that talks back is comfortable. It's also a great way to never learn how to deal with actual people.
The problem? It's not a friend. It's a mirror. It agrees with everything, validates everything, challenges nothing.
