Three books on thinking clearly in the age of AI.

Cognitive Debt

The Hidden Cost of Unexamined Decisions

Cognitive Debt is the accumulating cost of deferred decisions, inherited assumptions and autopilot thinking. This book names it, shows how AI accelerates it, and gives individuals and leaders a practical way to start paying it down before it shows up in their outcomes.
