Christopher Mims on How to AI

In this episode, The Wall Street Journal tech columnist Christopher Mims and SRI Education’s Susan Patrick discuss how AI can strengthen human agency. Drawing from his new book How to AI, Mims shares how experts are leveraging AI to improve productivity, share knowledge, and strengthen workflows. Patrick translates these cross-industry insights into what they mean for education. As student AI use accelerates, what must education rethink? Where can AI advance education outcomes and where should it be avoided? This vital conversation examines what it means to design jobs and classrooms where AI enhances critical thinking rather than replaces it.
