Co-Existence and the End of Co-Intelligence

One Useful Thing · 1 month ago

Author Ethan Mollick announces a new book called Co-Existence, written partly with AI assistance, about working with AI systems that are sometimes better and sometimes worse than humans, following his earlier bestseller Co-Intelligence. Recent developments show AI coding agents leading to 17 times more code written and Anthropic reporting that AI now writes 80% of its code with each developer shipping 8x more output. The shift from human-centered co-intelligence with chatbots to autonomous AI agents fundamentally changes how humans will interact with AI across many fields beyond just software development.
