The cruelest truth of the AI era: Your brain is the variable that determines the upper limit of AI's capabilities.

In the past, you could get by doing mediocre work and still make money. Not anymore. Logic, comprehension, problem definition, structured thinking—if any of these abilities are even slightly weak, AI becomes worthless in your hands.

AI is a tool of absolute rationality. The higher your IQ, the more powerful it becomes; if your mind isn't sharp, no matter how strong the model is, it can't save you.

The rule of the game "the strong get stronger" is already written in stone: AI will infinitely amplify the cognitive gap between people. Whatever you are, that's what it becomes.
