Mike Koenigs argues that students who achieved high academic marks may fear AI will make them less distinctive, but he reframes AI as a partner and tool rather than a threat. He draws historical analogies (chainsaws vs lumberjacks, sawmills, cars vs horses) to show that new technologies often feel like 'cheating' initially during major shifts.

Some of these kids who busted their butts to be 4.0 students are looking at AI going, how am I going to stand out? How am I going to be unique and special? And what my answer is, and the message is, AI is a partner. It's a tool. A lot of people back in the early days of, you know, lumberjacks looked at a chainsaw and said, that's cheating. You know, and sawmills were cheating just like cars were cheating from horses. It feels that way when there's a massive shift going on.
