When powerful AI can give almost everyone a polished answer in seconds, what remains scarce?

Judgment.

How Do We Stay Ahead of Others When GenAI Makes Us All Feel Smart? is a concise, practical handbook for anyone who wants to use artificial intelligence without surrendering independent thought.

Michael Cheah shows why speed, information access and clever prompts are no longer durable advantages when everyone has similar tools. The real advantage belongs to people who can define the right problem, expose hidden assumptions, understand incentives, imagine competing futures, verify evidence and remain responsible for the final decision.

Through examples drawn from investing, business, education and everyday choices, the book explains how to turn AI from an answer machine into an adversarial thinking partner.

You will learn how to:

Ask questions that reveal what the original framing has overlooked

Separate verified facts from management claims, assumptions and interpretations

Construct realistic base, bull and bear scenarios

Map stakeholders, incentives, hidden power and informal veto holders

Identify leading indicators and evidence that would invalidate a conclusion

Distinguish temporary volatility from permanent impairment

Use AI as a research assistant, investment committee, sceptic and simulator

Decide which tasks to delegate, which require collaboration and which must remain human

This is not a book about collecting more prompts. It is about building a better decision process.

AI can expand what we see, test what we believe and help us imagine what may happen next. But it cannot accept responsibility for our choices.

The goal is not to compete with the machine. It is to become more thoughtful, imaginative and accountable while using it.

Stay in the pilot seat.
