Every's AI education lead: use AI as a mise en place for the mind, not a ghostwriter
danshipper · x · 2026-09-03
Micah Rich, head of AI education at Every, shares how he actually uses AI: not to write for him, but to help him hold onto things — turning scattered conversations into retrievable notes, giving vague ideas enough shape to work with, preserving decision context, and sorting possibilities without carrying them all in his head.
His framing: the problem was never discipline, it was cooking a complicated meal without a counter. The result was subtle but immediate — not smarter, just "more available to my own intelligence." AI's role, he argues, is a mise en place for the mind rather than an automation replacement.
