An open index of work worth putting in front of the people who decide, drawn from three publications and a growing network of practitioners, and open to yours.
Latest
Reads Stanford Medicine's 2020 vaccine list and England's 2020 A-level grading model, where leaders blamed "the algorithm" for choices people made, and shows how a sentence moves a decision to a tool. Closes with an exercise: rewrite each AI sentence so a person is in it.
The index draws on three, each asking who owns the decision for a different room: the boardroom, the classroom and the contract.
One decision an organization made by default each week, and who should have owned it.
Who is still doing the thinking, for students and the adults around them.
Short case studies on the clauses, checks and sign-offs that decide what happens next.
The standard
From the index
Reads this summer's attacks on water-utility controllers alongside the 2023 Unitronics campaign and shows a factory setting no party in the chain owned, then finds the same pattern in exposed AI connectors.
Reads MIT's finding that students give in to AI most when a deadline looms alongside Wharton research on what a clock does to accuracy, and sets out what a parent or teacher can do in deadline season to keep the checking switched on.
Reads Stanford and Census payroll data as a hiring story rather than a layoff story, and shows how fewer early-career hires add up to a decision nobody made.
Takes the polling on fear that AI could threaten human survival seriously, argues it is aimed at a decade a parent cannot reach, and sets out what a parent can do this school year to keep the deciding in a child's hands.
Compares how four enterprise platforms meter AI in credits, assists and compute units, and shows the buyer negotiates the unit price while the agent decides how many units the work consumes.
