According to Ethan Mollick on X, studying the humanities is more valuable than ever because large language models are trained on human cultural history, humanities provide context for today’s AI-inflected moment, and deep reading remains essential; he links to his 2023 essay Magic for English Majors outlining practical ways humanities skills boost prompt craft, interpretation, and critique (source: Ethan Mollick tweet; original essay: One Useful Thing). As reported by One Useful Thing, Mollick details how textual analysis, rhetoric, and historical context help users frame higher quality prompts, evaluate model outputs, and identify bias—improving real-world outcomes in education and knowledge work. According to One Useful Thing, organizations can upskill nontechnical teams by pairing LLM tooling with humanities-based training, opening business opportunities in curriculum design, corporate learning, and AI literacy programs for managers and analysts.
