Are you unknowingly making it harder to live an excellent life? In this thought-provoking episode of Live Well and Flourish, Craig discusses the unfortunate trend of students using AI tools like ChatGPT to cheat on their papers and then lying about it when caught. He urges you to consider the long-term consequences of applying marginal cost logic to ethical decisions and how each dishonest choice you make can lead you down a path of unvirtuous behavior.

Drawing inspiration from Clayton Christensen's insightful Harvard Business Review article, "How Will You Measure Your Life," Craig encourages you to choose to be a person of good character, learn from your mistakes, and avoid intentionally damaging your personal growth and flourishing. Listen in as he explores the importance of embracing honesty, integrity, and wisdom in order to live a truly excellent life.
