Hot take.

The dominant AI narrative right now is drenched in cortisol.

Every piece of AI content is “10 tools you’re falling behind on,” “AI is coming for your job,” “here’s your 3000-step automation workflow.”

It’s all force, grind, and optimization.

And that energy is actually making people WORSE at using AI, not better.

We can reframe the pace to reward curiosity rather than panic.
