"Will we treat AI agents like employees?" Puh-leeze. We barely treat employees as employees. If and when agents work, they'll instantly become automation.

Pet peeve: prerecorded webcasts that pretend to be live, and then double-down by pretending to take live questions. It's not hard folks—why lie to your customers and prospects?!

Just read this: interesting, given the "misérabilisme" in some parts of the EU! "Take Nvidia out of the S&P 500, and its total returns underperform the eurozone’s stock benchmark since this bull market began in late 2022."

I'm generally a curious person, and lots of ideas pop into my head, and it's been a lifelong frustration that I couldn't really talk through them with anyone. l love that ChatGPT is an excellent discussion partner, as long as you push to get opposing views. I feel smarter now!

I bought my daughter some nice-quality watercolors for her birthday. I thought I’d take the old ones for a spin—it’s been a while since I attempted a watercolor urban sketch.

Seems like a good time to re-up this sustainability cartoon of mine... It makes me so furious when people say we "can't afford" climate mitigation. Now we have to pay for all the damage AND the mitigation at the same time...

I’m slightly surprised to find I’m looking forward to the coming year. I think limiting news and social media recently has helped!

Stack ranking is where you define a % of people that have to be designed as low performers. It turns out to be a great way to drive dysfunctional behavior, as people undermine each other to make sure that they’re not the lowest on the list, or avoid joining high-performance teams.

Even though I'm a presenter, I don't really get the point of presentations any more. Isn't it easier and faster to get that via a document? I just caught up with three video sessions I'd missed, and thanks to the transcripts I skipped the boring parts & got what I needed in a fraction of the time...

"Provide unbearable levels of sophistication" by Anthropic Claude and @emollick.bsky.social . Insisting that this isn't creative, because it's the result of an algorithm, seems like a losing battle to me. (And yes the 7th arrondissement of Paris is unbearably sophisticated 😀 ) lnkd.in/eHhD6k3W

As we gawk at the $250M Musk spent elect Trump, take a guess how long it took him to “earn” it back in the market? It took just 15 minutes. I'm not kidding... 15 minutes. According to Bloomberg, his net worth soared by $8B just today. That’s billionaire math for you—and it’s all of our problem.

In 1916, cartoonist Rube Goldberg nailed it. Destructive jerks get space in our faces just because somebody thinks they have money. It's the ultimate punchline of the DFT years: They thought he had money.

Small Beats Big! If you’re using AI to solve a specific business need, as part of a business process, and you have the right data grounding framework (if you don’t, then there’s no point in going further!), then a smaller, faster, cheaper model will likely be a better fit. #ai #sapbtp
