Thinking on practical, accountable AI.
There is a huge amount of excitement right now around large AI models. Every week new announcements appear about increasingly powerful systems that can write, analyse, code, summarise, and reason in ways that were difficult to imagine only a few years ago. The message is often simple: the latest frontier models are the future, and […]
There is a huge rush right now to adopt AI. Everywhere you look, the message is the same: AI will optimise processes, save time, reduce costs, and unlock innovation. Companies are told they must move fast or risk falling behind competitors who are already using it. And while there is truth in all of that, […]
Anyone working with AI right now knows the feeling. You plan a solution, start building, and by the time it is ready the tools have moved on. What was cutting edge a short while ago can quickly become ordinary, or unnecessary. Our early tools are an honest example of that. The problem we set out […]
Choices In today’s digital landscape, businesses are surrounded by tools that promise simplicity. Platforms like n8n, Zapier, Microsoft Power Apps, Make, and Workato have transformed what’s possible without deep technical expertise — and that’s only scratching the surface. There are a lot of tools out there. On the surface, integration has never been easier. But […]
There is a lot of noise around AI and jobs. Some people talk as if large language models are about to replace huge parts of the workforce overnight. Others dismiss the whole thing as overhyped software that will never move beyond novelty. Both positions tend to miss something important: the evidence matters more than the […]
In the whirlwind of AI advancements, 2025 has seen a massive surge in discussions about superintelligence. Mark Zuckerberg recently declared that “superintelligence is now in sight,” with Meta launching a dedicated AI lab to pursue it. Similarly, projects like OpenAI’s Stargate initiative and China’s rapid catch-up in AI models highlight how close we might be […]
In the ever-evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, one question looms large: do we need consciousness for AI to be a threat? This thought-provoking inquiry invites us to delve deep into the potential risks and implications of AI, even in the absence of consciousness. The Threat of Non-Conscious AI Assuming AI is not conscious, could it […]
Alright folks! Let’s have a real, no-nonsense chat about AI. It’s done some pretty impressive things, and it keeps bringing value across industries. But let’s not get too carried away—AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), the kind of AI that can do anything a human can, is still more of a dream than a reality. While some […]
Hey there! Let’s talk about AI assistants. They’re popping up everywhere—from websites to social media and even at work. These little helpers are great for when you need information fast. And while we’re talking about those small widget assistants, imagine them as full-on voice chat assistants, answering calls and chatting away. But what makes an […]
In recent years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become a buzzword, with many fearing that it might take over the world. However, the reality is far from this dystopian vision. AI, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), are procedural tools that excel in specific tasks but are not the omnipotent entities some might imagine. Understanding LLMs: Emulation […]
