📌Become an AI Power User in One Week https://clickhubspot.com/087fa8 Andrew Ng is Coursera's co-founder, built the founding Google Brain team, and has taught roughly 8 million people AI. Now he argues the AI fear filling headlines this year is mostly wrong. A handful of AI companies benefit from that fear, he says. He runs the math on "AI could automate 30–40% of your job" and shows what that means for the other 60%. He tells anxious college students the university system is already two years behind. He says AI models are terrible for learning. That's despite building his career on AI education companies. His bar for hiring marketers, recruiters, and ops people in 2026-27: can you build with AI, not just use it.
