Hormozi approaches the question from two angles. First, he notes that AI will agree with virtually any position if you push it hard enough — asking the same question to Claude, OpenAI, and other models produces wildly different answers, which tells you everything. Second, there's now research suggesting that delegating decisions to AI causes real cognitive degradation. Hormozi frames his brain as his best current asset and refuses to let it atrophy. 'Do not delegate the hardest work you have,' he says, 'because you will just get so weak so fast.' The message isn't anti-AI — it's pro-brain.
Outsourcing your decision-making to AI doesn't just produce bad decisions — it makes you permanently weaker. Your brain is your best asset. Delegate the easy work, protect the hard thinking.
