It s all about me, really.
If you have a failing hard disk, and it has something really valuable on it (a bitcoin private key, irreplaceable photos, or the only copy of an unpublished book manuscript, for example), you should pay a professional to recover what s on there. In my case, a relative had asked me if I might try to Continue reading Recovering a failing disk using a Raspberry Pi and a bit of AI
This post focuses on one of the points covered in the Far Phase board training session on Generative AI, and complements the previous posts on AI risks concerning hallucinations (making mistakes) and intellectual property. There seems to be a new AI tool every week, and that every month a big AI firm is announcing new Continue reading How to deal with the AI pace of change
This post focuses on one of the points covered in the Far Phase board training session on Generative AI, and complements the previous AI risk post on intellectual property. If you have heard anything about Generative AI, you have heard about its hallucinations . They provide great fodder for the media, who can point out many Continue reading Is AI hallucination a new risk?
This post focuses on one of the points covered in the Far Phase board training session on Generative AI. Unlike Predictive AI, which is largely about doing analytics on in-house data, Gen AI exposes a company to a new set of risks related to Intellectual Property (IP). Boards and Directors should be aware of the Continue reading The new risk for AI: Intellectual Property
This may be a controversial post for some, since the data analytics industry has seemingly done its best to blur the line between the data domain and today’s Artificial Intelligence (AI) boom. That said, board directors and executives will be best-served by better understanding how these domains differ and so their organisations can take advantage Continue reading AI is not Data
There s currently a spate of negative articles about the Apple Vision Pro. I think these overstate any failure of this device, and I m going to tell you why. Assuming you read on. 😀 Zuckerberg got in early with his own negative take, but recently we ve had some others. You might have seen articles like the Continue reading Apple Vision Pro down but not out
Writing prompts for Generative AI systems will be a skill as critical as writing good web search queries has been over the past two decades. If you aim to be effective in making use of GenAI tools, prompt engineering is a skill that you should develop. A search box has become ubiquitous in modern online Continue reading 5 Basic Prompt Engineering Learnings
I deliberated putting a question mark at the end of that title. Education Technology is a topic of contradictions, and has a history of hype, so it is clearly bold of me to be asserting This Time It is Different. But, maybe this time it is different. The recent State of Australian Startup Funding 2023 Continue reading Exciting times for EdTech
I was inspired to cook this for a recent recipe club dinner on the theme of in pieces . It is based on a non-gluten-free recipe from the Woolworths site. However, since I had to tweak it a little, and others may also be interested, I m putting my version here. Ingredients Method
Artificial Intelligence (or AI) has meant different things at different times, all through my career. I started working in AI back in the 1990s, when the most prominent use of a neural network was to decode hand-written post code (zip code) digits on letters, and if an organisation was using AI, they had probably implemented Continue reading A Simple AI Strategy
