Stanford's Practical Guide to 10x Your AI Productivity | Jeremy Utley

About This Video

In this EO talk, Stanford d.school professor and AI creativity expert Jeremy Utley delivers a concise, actionable framework for 10x-ing your productivity with artificial intelligence. Rather than diving into academic theory or buzzword-laden futurism, Utley presents five concrete steps that any professional can implement immediately. Drawing from his extensive research at Stanford and work with executives worldwide, he shows how the gap between average and exceptional AI users is not technical skill --- it's mindset and workflow design. Utley breaks down common misconceptions about AI productivity, explaining why most people underutilize tools like ChatGPT and Claude, and demonstrates specific prompting techniques that transform these tools from novelty to necessity. He covers how to integrate AI into creative problem-solving, decision-making, and daily task execution. The talk emphasizes that 10x improvement doesn't come from working harder but from restructuring how you think about and delegate work to AI systems. Packed with real examples from entrepreneurs who have adopted these methods, this session bridges the gap between knowing AI exists and actually harnessing it to transform your professional output.
