Efficiency vs. Expansion: How Progress Can Fuel Job Creation, Not Fear

I find Entrepreneurs build companies and then the bean counters and time and motion people move in long before the innovative spark can do no more.

Stop Messing with Data, Start getting Answers - Why Your BI Tools Are Already Obsolete

Let’s be honest: you’re tired. Tired of waiting days for answers buried in spreadsheets.

Tariffs can have a multifaceted impact on the advancement of AI and automation, acting as both a potential hindrance and, paradoxically, a possible catalyst in certain areas. Integrating the "anti-innovative approach" of the EU AI Act alongside the impact of tariffs paints a more complex picture of the challenges facing AI and automatio

Beyond Workflow: Reclaiming Humanity in the Age of AI through Assistive Intelligence

In an era dominated by rapid technological advancement, the language we use to describe artificial intelligence profoundly shapes our perception of its role in society.

Decoding the Vibe - AI's Impact on Developer Expertise

Thankfully, despite the Tech bros latest hype handle, 'Vibe coding' isn't yet a widely recognized or standardized term in software development. It is a hip but informal or colloquial expression but a dangerous one that is a danger to our western coding resource. Lose the skills in any industry or country and you lose the fundamentals and resilien

Knowledge Compounding: The Key to Unlocking AI's True Potential
