In this episode, we take a step back and ask: where are we really in our relationship with AI?
First, we break down the three leading AI platforms—ChatGPT-4o, Gemini 2.5, and Microsoft Copilot—and explain how each is evolving into an AI operating system: a full workspace where your writing, planning, communication, and analysis can happen seamlessly and intelligently. Then, we introduce a practical metaphor for AI adoption: AI is like water— it is rising, flowing, and pervasiv; the four levels of AI engagement (Level 1 Beachcomber, Level 2 Swimmer, Level 3 Snorkeler, and Level 4 Diver), each explained with real-life examples from classrooms, businesses, and leading thinkers in the AI space. Whether you're just dipping your toes in or already navigating deep waters, this episode will help you better understand:
-
Which AI platform fits your workflow,
-
How to move from casual use to confident integration,
-
And why understanding your "level" matters for both productivity and ethics.
