This is a reminder that Analytical Edge After Hours convenes Monday, 23 February, at 6:00 PM Central. https://www.skool.com/live/Y82vg2rN9hm

In an era where artificial intelligence is not merely a tool but a structural force reshaping cognition, education, governance, and security, the question is no longer whether we engage with AI—but how, and at what cost if we do not. Our discussion will examine critical thinking in an AI age: what it means to remain intellectually sovereign when algorithms increasingly mediate information, judgment, and even creativity.

We will also explore the evolving educational landscape. If AI can generate answers, what becomes of inquiry? If it can synthesize knowledge, what becomes of scholarship? The deeper issue is not technological capability but epistemic discipline—how we train minds to evaluate, interrogate, and responsibly wield such power.

Finally, we will confront the national security implications of both using and not using AI. Strategic competitors are accelerating integration across intelligence, cyber, and defense domains. Overreliance carries risk. Failure to adopt carries risk. The analytical question is one of calibration, governance, and foresight.

This session is designed not as a lecture, but as a rigorous exchange among serious thinkers navigating consequential terrain. https://www.skool.com/live/Y82vg2rN9hm
If we fail to think clearly about AI now, when the stakes are manageable, how will we think clearly when they are not?
