Featured in @BrettFarmiloe piece for @FastCompany on (what I call) AI interrogative literacy: "LLMs produce what could be true, not what is true. The scarce skill is no longer producing the analysis, it's knowing whether to trust it." fastcompany.co.za/work-life/… #AISkills

In 1896, Bridget Driscoll became the first person in Britain killed by a car. The coroner hoped it would never happen again. It did — 60m+ times since. We didn't ban the car. We built seatbelts, traffic lights, crash tests. So why's AI different? linkedin.com/pulse/seatbelt-…

Pleased to see the J-curve framework for tech adoption cited in @InstituteGC's report on UK tech diffusion. The core challenge isn't just spreading technology — it's helping firms navigate the productivity dip before the gains arrive. Recommended reading.
