## Resource

The real AI transformation isn't happening in the outputs people are trying to detect — it's happening invisibly, inside the minds and workflows of those who've made AI part of how they think. Sean and Andrew explore the widening gap between those who've been cognitively reshaped by these tools and those still debating whether to let them in.
