Technology A cleaner way to let AI use my browser A first test of Safari’s new agent interface suggests that browser automation can become cleaner and less dependent on any single AI provider.
AI in Practice ChatGPT Business Is Not Plus for Professionals A friend asked whether he should move from ChatGPT Plus to Business. The answer exposed larger questions about professional data, workspace ownership and where organisational knowledge should live.
Europe Europe Has Decided ChatGPT Is a Search Engine The EU has designated ChatGPT a Very Large Online Search Engine. The decision exposes the uneasy hybrid inside one product: public information infrastructure and private working environment.
Quantum Computing Learning before the quantum computer arrives Quantum computers still belong largely to the future. Learning how to think and work with them may have to start considerably earlier.
AI in Practice The company does not live in the LLM A knowledge-intensive company should keep durable organisational knowledge outside the model, and let AI do what it is unusually good at: reason across it.
AI in Practice The susurration of machines Give AI agents a small world, leave some room for wandering, and watch what they notice. Susurration makes machine attention strangely visible.
AI Governance The EU AI Act Changed While It Was Arriving The AI Act became applicable six days after an Omnibus changed part of its timetable. Some obligations arrived as planned, while others moved years into the future. I think that split exposes a tension built into the Act itself.
AI in Practice The Successor Test Moving professional work into a company ChatGPT workspace looks like a migration. The harder question is whether anything arrives that outlives the person who put it there.
AI in Practice What the blue leaves behind The new mark for this blog began in the earth's shadow. Building it with Claude turned a private connection into a working identity, and gave the writing somewhere to go again.
Technology LLMs Predict Language. Humans Construct Meaning. Large language models produce fluent language in seconds. Piaget helps explain why understanding still has to be constructed.
Quantum Computing You can already use a quantum computer Quantum computing still feels distant, yet anyone can already write, simulate and run simple quantum programs. The software ecosystem is arriving before the hardware matures.
AI in Practice Looking Past the Model ChatGPT Work and Kimi K3 made me look beyond the engine. Increasingly, the meaningful product may be the environment in which a model can actually work.
AI Strategy Is there really one AI economy? Over the past few weeks I've found myself reading widely differing takes on AI. Some see the biggest speculative bubble in history. Others see the foundations of a new industrial era. Perhaps they're simply looking at different parts of the same landscape.
AI Strategy Why I Keep Choosing Proprietary Products Why do I keep choosing proprietary products when open-weight models promise more control, flexibility and independence? The answer may lie less in principle than in what is actually usable, affordable and reliable today.
Quantum Computing Quantum computing is more than qubits A Dutch quantum computer just reached its first customer, not for its power to solve problems yet, but to learn what building on this new kind of computer means.
Sovereignty Compute Is the Entry Ticket, Not the Game Compute is necessary but not sufficient. A LinkedIn debate sharpened an argument about European AI infrastructure into a longer chain: energy to demand.
Sovereignty A Serious European Bet on AI Compute VOLT's proposed Rotterdam AI campus would be among Europe's largest, if built. The real scale, and why Dutch soil isn't the same as durable Dutch control.
AI Governance A License to Prompt A vocal minority told me I wasn't entitled to use a frontier model for a "simple" diagram. It reveals a split running through centuries of regulation: license the person, or license the maker.
AI in Practice Fable Is Back. Brilliant, and Expensive. Fable is the best model I have, and the heaviest. It drains my usage faster and costs more past the limit. On the price of reaching for the strong tool.
AI Governance Vanta proves the lock is installed Vanta makes vendor trust continuous instead of episodic. What it automates is real. What it still can't do is tell you whether that's enough.
AI Governance How safe is that, actually A vendor I vouched for got challenged twice in one week. I couldn't answer with more than trust, so I built a method to climb past it.
AI Strategy What Clients Mean When They Say Sovereignty Sovereignty has become one of the most common requirements in AI and digital procurement. The problem is that the word usually describes several different concerns at once.
Identity SimpleX: The Messenger Without Accounts No phone number. No username. No directory. Just a secure connection between two people.
AI in Practice Is Your Site Agent-Ready? Cloudflare quietly shipped a scanner that scores how well your website serves AI agents, and hands you a fix list your coding agent can act on directly.
AI in Practice The €60,000 LLM Well Running AI on your own hardware sounds like freedom. The LM Studio demo at WWDC26 makes you calculate what that actually costs, and what it buys you.
