Original research and practical insights on AI strategy, implementation, and the challenges organisations face in capturing value from AI.
Your AI Has Amnesia. Give It Memory.
The biggest mistake people make with AI is starting every conversation cold. Context is what turns a generic tool into a genuine collaborator.
1x and 10x: The Two Worlds of AI Productivity
Every piece of information lives in either the human world or the AI world, and knowing the boundary between them is the meta-skill that separates 1x from 10x productivity.
Nobody Is Talking About the AI Exponential
The weekly AI discourse focuses on individual model releases while missing the exponential curve underneath, and human cognition is wired to underestimate it.
AI-First, Not AI-Assisted
Starting with AI instead of bolting it on at the end changes everything about what you can accomplish and how fast you can move.
Exploring Temperature as a Diagnostic Mechanism for LLM Prompts
13,000+ API calls across three models reveal that temperature doesn't create instability in LLM prompts — it reveals it, turning a misunderstood parameter into a structural diagnostic.
Intelligence at the Interface
Most software just bolted on an AI button. The real shift is when the AI becomes the interface itself, composing experiences from intent rather than navigating menus.
It's Time to Watch the Canary
Software engineering is the first major knowledge profession to go through AI transformation at scale. Their experience is a preview of what's coming for the rest of us.
Your Move, Human
The window for building AI fluency is open right now. It starts with a thousand hours, and the compounding favours those who begin now.
The Determinism Gap: Why Your LLM Accuracy Measurements May Be Unreliable
A 4.9x determinism gap between GPT-5.2/Codex and Claude Opus 4.6 means many perceived prompt engineering improvements may be measurement artefacts.
The Acceleration is Real
The gap between dabbling with AI and being AI-native is enormous and growing. Here's what the view looks like from the other side.
