The author notes a striking mismatch: millions daily talk to a machine smarter than any human, yet mostly use it to polish emails — like owning every book ever written and reading only the one on sounding polite to your boss. He traces this to a lifetime of learning which questions are "above our pay grade," and argues the biggest winners will be those who stop asking small questions first.
