The AI Productivity Paradox: Immediate Gains vs. Long-Term Risks
AI tools are delivering real efficiency wins, but they’re also quietly reshaping how workers think, what skills atrophy, and where quality unexpectedly breaks down. Here’s what every business leader needs to understand before going all-in. The AI Productivity Paradox: a framework for understanding short-term efficiency gains alongside emerging cognitive and organizational risks. There’s a quiet tension building inside AI-adopting organizations. On one side: real, measurable productivity gains that no serious executive should dismiss. On the other: a set of slower-moving,…
The Best Leaders Have a Contagious Positive Energy

Take a few minutes to read the whole article here, but one of the key takeaways for me in the value of emotional intelligence and empathy, informing your engaged leadership style. We are all hungry for leaders who care and have a positive energy, you see it in high performing teams where there is an associated high degree of…
Books to read: Algorithms to Live By
This book is a solid read with ideas that apply to decision making across a broad spectrum of areas. The authors are able to make the math and conversation around algorithms map to life in well thought and articulated examples that should open your thinking to new ways to approach problems and opportunities. A few sections that jumped out to me are referenced here or in the reviews, but I encourage you to take the book for a spin yourself.…
WHY THE PAST 10 YEARS OF AMERICAN LIFE HAVE BEEN UNIQUELY STUPID
I came across this article on Twitter this week and was struck by many of the points.

Algorithms for decision making: Free book download from MIT
MIT press has provided a free book on Algorithms for decision making. You can download it from MIT Press here, or alternatively it is available from this site if the original link fails. From the data science website: The book takes an agent based approachAn agent is an entity that acts based on observations of its environment. Agents may be physical entities, like humans or robots, or they may be nonphysical entities,such as decision support systems that are implemented entirely in software.…
Is your Scientific Data FAIR
For many years, we have seen the proliferation of data as we increasingly instrument our scientific processes. We have developed a diverse landscape of tools and processes, making significant leaps from paper based documentation, but created a new nightmare of integration and complex analysis. The FAIR initiative or set of principles is a framework to reduce that complexity through the application of a core set of principles outlined below, making data machine readable across sources. This unlocks the data from…
