A while ago, I wrote that AI needs teachers too. At the time, I was thinking mostly about context. AI can summarize, explain, compare, retrieve, and generate, but it still needs someone to decide what information it should trust, which…
A few months ago, I wrote about why I enjoy running AI at around 20 tokens per second. At that speed, I can actually watch what’s happening. I can see where the model is going, catch it when it starts…
George Orwell wrote something in Notes on Nationalism that I keep coming back to: One has to belong to the intelligentsia to believe things like that: no ordinary man could be such a fool. It is a cruel line. It…
The thumb became a prompt, but the responsibility is still human. Michel Serres used Thumbelina as a metaphor for a new kind of human being shaped by the digital revolution: someone who communicated with her thumbs, moved naturally through screens,…

What migrating corporate learning from an LMS to SharePoint taught me about context, curation, and learning in the flow of work For a long time, corporate learning has followed a familiar script. A new topic appears. Someone decides that people…
Many times we are obsessed with the fast track. We want the answer now. The summary now. The draft now. The idea now. Cloud AI models are designed to satisfy that anxiety. They are engineering marvels capable of producing neat…
In learning experience design, we often pursue efficiency. If a tool speeds up a process, reduces friction, or removes an obstacle, our first reaction is usually positive. And that makes sense. In L&D, we often work with limited time, limited…
